Plot Hooks

Locale

The Shop

A traveling salesman claims he can get anything for anyone. For a price. He's set up shop just outside of town.

Arnold Weatherby is wondering if the salesman can get his hands on a magical necklace.

The Kraken

A kraken has been attacking the town. The problem is, this is a farming town, hundreds of miles from the nearest coast.

Selena Wazels thinks the kraken can teleport.

The Prisoner

A man is found passed out by the road. A manacle hangs off one wrist, and his clad in only dirty trousers. He claims he has no memory of where he's come from.

Amy Laroque first saw the man while heading back to town.

The Wendigo

People are going missing, and a wendigo just might be to blame.

Kasim Brown is leaving town.

The Hairy King

The King has come down with a case of the ol' werewolf-itis. The Queen would prefer no one know.

River Rana has their suspicions that the King might be a werewolf.

A Persistent Chill

As spring arrives in the valley, the winter thaw never occurs. The river stays frozen and a chill wind blows in from the mountain pass in the north.

Eden Aquilegia fears they will run out of wood. Rowan Vinder cannot get out onto the lake to fish.

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!

Sulfras Hawkwing, a local lord, and his knights were not invited to the tournament. Killian Anguish is a guard captain who partakes a bit heavily in drinking.

Everlasting Life

A mysterious stranger is willing to sell a potion that he says grants everlasting life, for the low low price of 1,000 gp.

Hardwin Silvergem is thinking about trying to raise the money needed.

The Stranger

The door to the tavern opens, and an old companion from years before enters. You are shocked, as you watched them die.

The companion does not remember you.
