The Experiment

While investigating a missing person you come across an abandoned lab. To your dismay, you find notes and diagrams making reference to you.

Jen Mazdan heard screams coming from that part of the sewers at night. Sawyer Ironwill went missing last week, their mother is worried sick.

The Helm of Slaughter

You find a beautifully crafted helmet. You put it on and after a few moments you hear a voice, "Yes... let the slaughter begin...". You are unable to remove the helmet.

Tarc Winterheart suggests you don't wear the helmet until you have it inspected by a wizard. Maz Banes says a wizard will just try to take it, might as well wear it.

An Unlucky Number

A company of twelve warriors is searching for a thirteenth. It turns out you have been nominated.

One of the twelve, named Martha Hogan, seems to make many significant glances at Kerry Proudfoot.

Arachnophobia

Spiders are crawling up from below the city! The citizens are panicked.

Elias Brocksby says "Spiders, why did it have to be spiders?"

Heat Wave

A wall of flame a mile high and thirty miles long is spreading through the forest, destroying everything in its path.

Ahsoka Crewe thinks the wall of flame began near a wizard's tower home.

The Closed Mine

A nearby mine has closed, laying off a hundred workers, who now have no idea how they're going to support themselves and their families.

Penelope Whisperwind thinks the owner of the mine is up to something shady.

What Now?

Another group of adventurers has killed the Big Bad.

Helena Turner thought your group would be the one to do it.

The Coming Dark

A tribe of dark elves have been banished from their home, and are looking for a new one.

Dolan Hickory doesn't trust the elves.

Payment Due

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

Eldar Crump admits that they do owe the man money, but they just don't have it. Fletcher Roberts may be willing to loan them what they need.
