Plot Hooks

Locale

Tiefling Trouble

A tiefling named Rokul is being targeted by a mysterious assassin.

Kamal Lesley seems to think the assassin is one of the Black Birds, a group of hired killers. Brian Rook doesn't think the Black Birds even exist.

The Flood

A flood has covered hundreds of miles, leaving nothing but a small village that was built upon the top of a great hill. Settlers from flooded towns are seeking refuge, but there's not enough supplies to go around, and some refugees and plotting to take over.

Manuel Banes thinks the village should close their doors to any and all refugees.

The Coming Dark

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

Bart Fitzgerald doesn't trust the elves.

Princess Problems

A princess is said to disappear once a month, and no one can find her. It may be related to the bodies around town that spring up that same night.

Helsora Beech feels crazy for being the only person to realize the princess is a werewolf.

A Fungus Among Us

Odd mushrooms have sprouted up in the forest. And on anyone who touches them. Those infected seem to be acting...strangely.

Bodwyn Spring has one of the mushrooms growing on their forehead.

Another Time

The whole city has been transported back in time, to an era that predates civilization.

Sophie Huon isn't leaving their home until things are back to normal.

The Kraken

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

Blake Mervor thinks the kraken can teleport.

Execution

A crazed murderer has escaped and fled the night before his planned execution.

Nena Wilbur thinks the man is innocent.

The Ageless

A small group of travelling wanderers seem to not age.

Moe Wazels met the group as a child, and they're all the same age as they were back then.
