Plot Hooks

Locale

Just a Dream

Every year on the night before your birthday, you dream that you are murdered by a man in black armour. You find yourself in an inn, the innkeeper is an old man. On the mantle is a wicked looking sword and familiar black armour...

Laura Hickory says the innkeeper used to be an infamous adventurer many decades before. Heidi Hogan says the innkeeper's exploits are mostly unknown, as is where he got his armour.

The Troll

A troll has been terrorizing nearby villages.

Sisco Stonesworn saw the troll speaking to a man who looked like a wizard.

The Lone Elf

An elf named Raven is the lone survivor of an attack by a goblin horde. Someone needs to convince her she shouldn't stay alone in the forest.

Guthrum Boone says Raven is standoffish and rude.

Avalanche

An avalanche is moving swiftly down the mountain and will be here in moments.

Roxy Poots is sure everyone will die.

The Chosen

A young boy is being sought out. It is believed he is the only one who can destroy a great evil.

Avery Huon worked with a group to hide the boy so none could find him.

Playing God

A man who recently lost his wife is said to be attempting to bring her back by putting her soul within a flesh golem.

Parker Silvermoon saw the widower digging up his wife's grave.

One with the Night

You are told to meet a potential quest-giver in a nearby cemetery. Upon arrival, it is clear this person is a vampire...

Chandra Hillard warns you that Safia Greene, the quest giver, is strange and potentially dangerous.

Tourney Troubles

You are participating in the grand melee, the pinnacle competition during the Summer Tournament. In the midst of the combat, shouts ring out from the crowd. The tournament grounds are under attack!

Cain Fitzgerald, a local lord, and his knights were not invited to the tournament. Amy Wolfbrother is a guard captain who partakes a bit heavily in drinking.

Freedom

You are escorting a caravan between cities. Late one night you are on watch, and you hear a noise from the cargo. Investigating the sound you find it is coming from within the cargo. A small voice says: "Free us.".

Garry Clarke does not know what is in the crates, nor do they want to know.
