Plot Hooks

Locale

Invaders!

A race of warriors, not known to these lands, has landed on the shores of the kingdom and displaced several villages and farms. They are not just raiders, and have already begun to establish settlement.

Olivier Stone watched the invaders burn a village. Yoko Terryn wants revenge and is gathering a host to attack the invaders.

The Cheater

The townskeeper's wife has been seen out and about with another man. This is a problem, because the townskeeper is a crazy person.

Lacy Weston thinks everyone needs to not say a thing to the townskeeper.

Payment Due

A mysterious man is in town claiming that he's owed money.

Joel Aquilegia admits that they do owe the man money, but they just don't have it. Preston White may be willing to loan them what they need.

Horde of the Mountain King

You find a map at the bottom of a chest. It is written in Dwarvish and, if read, identifies a treasure horde hidden high in the mountains

Arish Mowbry thinks this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to make it rich. Ashley Mervor is concerned about what else might be guarding the horde...

Crossroads

While travelling, you pass a crossroad with a small cemetery. A few hours later, you pass by the same crossroads, although you have not changed your direction.

Avery Mowbry tells you not to go down that road. Zayne Hickory smiles slightly too wide when talking to you.

Lambs to the Slaughter

An entire company of heroes was sent to deal with a rising evil to the east. Only one returns: she is blind and half-mad.

Alexis Kelshall is scared for her brother, who was the scout of the party of heroes.

The Garrison

A group of soldiers fighting a war have come to town, looking for a place to stay and rest. The problem is, the war they're fighting ended over 100 years ago.

Monica Dresdain isn't convinced the soldiers are ghosts.

The Secret Cave

The party is flagged down by a boy who is soaking wet. He leads the party to a nearby pond and dives under with them, leading everyone to an underground cave. The boy says his friend was taken while they were exploring.

The cave wall has three names carved into it. Reiko Scott, Isabella AnaanShan, and Blake Duval.

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.

Sisco Duval wants the wish and will stop at nothing to get it.
