Plot Hooks

Locale

Unrequited

In the center of the village stands a beautifully carved statue of a woman in full battle armor, a hometown hero. A young adventuring Cleric, obsessed with the famed warrior, casts stone to flesh on the statue in a vain hope to be with her. It works.

Malcolm Dunstan has loved the stories of the hero all his life, and just wants her to be real. Sumesh Carson thinks the cleric has his head in the clouds. Marina Lord says the circumstances around the heroes death were always strange.

The Constable

The local constable has locked himself, and hostages, in the city jail.

Rebecca Mowbry thinks the constable is having a psychotic break.

The Last Wish

A stone has been found which houses a genie willing to grant wishes. He says he has one last wish he may grant, but wants to give it to someone who really deserves it.

Violet Silvermoon wants the wish and will stop at nothing to get it.

The Last Message

A body is found with a note clutched in its hand. The party feels as though the note should be delivered to the dead man's wife.

Sawyer Marid is the only person who can decipher the code written hastily at the bottom of the note.

The Ball

The King and Queen are throwing a ball. ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY

Brian Banes might shave their legs.

The Spread

A disease has been slowly spreading throughout the city. It appears to be undetected by Detect Poison or Disease. Half-Orcs are not affected by the disease.

Eden Ghani thinks the orc tribes must have done this. Timothy Spring refuses to let you leave the city, to prevent any spread.

The Reluctant Killer

You hear shouts, and round the corner to find a shirtless elf standing in a practiced combat stance with his blade readied. He is surrounded by local thugs. You should help, but you are unsure who is threatening who.

Lincoln Hillard came to this city to find his daughter, but has been spurned by the humans who live in the town.

The Other World

Another world has appeared in the sky, very near to this world.

Rowan Cunningham thinks they might exist on that world, and have a better life.

The Shopping List

A travelling wizard needs helps gathering supplies for his potions.

Moe Watson seems to think the wizard is a fake, and may be leading the party toward doom.
