Plot Hooks

Locale

Fool's Gold

You are given a gold coin for your service to a strange old man. Everytime you open your coin purse, you find only that coin, even if you place other coins in with it.

Michelle Wrynn offers you a magic item for your service to him. Fiona Ashbringer warns that greed consumes all.

Puppets

A puppeteer has lost control of his puppets. He didn't even know they were alive.

Bashara Larchwood is creeped out by the puppets.

Into the Unknown

You are being chased through the dungeon by a horde of monsters. You come to a final room with no exits but for one swirling red portal which leads to lands unknown.

Winona Echols, your guide, does not wish to enter any unknown portals.

The Chosen

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

Eden Roderick worked with a group to hide the boy so none could find him.

Cats!

Everyone is turning into cats when the moon rises.

Marina Whitethorn is the only person who is seemingly immune.

Unrequited

In the center of the village stands a beautifully carved statue of a woman in full battle armor, a hometown hero. A young adventuring Cleric, obsessed with the famed warrior, casts stone to flesh on the statue in a vain hope to be with her. It works.

Morgan Molyneaux has loved the stories of the hero all his life, and just wants her to be real. Jerome Echols thinks the cleric has his head in the clouds. Arios Wright says the circumstances around the heroes death were always strange.

It's a Hog's Life

After a night of drinking and feasting in the town, you awaken to find the town empty of villagers and instead it is filled with hogs

Cole Hamilton says the town worships a respectable goddess of the land, harvest and charity. Weyland Hamid only allows those who are strictly invited to the feats to participate.

Into the Corn

A cornfield at a nearby farm lets people in, but does not let them out.

Ceri Potter's brother went into the corn last week, and hasn't been seen since.

The Vanished

On the last day of each month, someone in the city vanishes. It's been going on for almost a decade, but the city is so wealthy and safe that few who live there are concerned, and simply hope they are not the ones that end u missing.

When Nelson Rowe was a child, their father went missing.
