Plot Hooks

Locale

The Missing Kid

A boy has vanished. They know where he is, he's invisible.

Denzel Amal thinks the boy has been cursed.

The Treasure Map

Someone in town wants to hire adventurers to escort them to a location said to have a lot of treasure, at least based on this old map they found.

Timothy Silverback believe the treasure is real, while Taylor Kaye does not.

Zoo Troubles!

A travelling zoo has lost a few of their animals. It's up to you to find them!

Kendra Alhara saw one of the creatures run into the woods.

They Come at Night

A roving band of creatures no one has ever seen before attacks towns and villages at night, killing all those within.

Tanis Cunningham thinks a militia should be formed to protect their hometown.

The Runes

A new ancient dungeon has been discovered, and the walls are covered in carved runes from a dead language no one can speak or read. At least, until a small boy in a nearby town begins scratching the same runes into his own home.

Fribbington Baznak is afraid of the boy, and wonders if the right thing to do is to simply eliminate him.

Off Day!

There's nothing to do today! Absolutely nothing!

Elisha Summer said something, but you don't even need to listen!

The Elves have Gone

You arrive at the gates of an ancient elven city. The gates of the city are unbarred, and the streets empty. The city has been abandoned.

Olivier Pierce has been to this city before and found the elves to be very welcoming.

Night of the Dog

All the dogs in the area have become murderous.

Jelen Oak was the first one attacked by a pack of dogs.

The Mirror

An old mirror is found in the abandoned tower of a wizard. While looking into the mirror, your reflection gives you a grave look and speaks: "I have come to warn you... something is coming and your world is not prepared."

Riley Rook says this wizard used to be a kind old man, but something changed in him making him paranoid. Rowan Scott is the grandchild of the late wizard.
