Plot Hooks

Locale

Fight Club

A secret underground fight club has sprung up.

Joanna Schmidt is mad because someone talked about it.

The Gambler

A man has been caught cheating at a card game in the tavern. He's being held in jail, but swears that he doesn't even know how to play the card game.

Martha Boone seems to think the man may be possessed by... something.

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.

Hassan Beech suggests you don't wear the helmet until you have it inspected by a wizard. Tom Gleeson says a wizard will just try to take it, might as well wear it.

Body Swap

Anyone who gets too close to a mysterious castle that's risen up overnight swaps bodies with whoever is closest to them at the moment.

Ashley Redscar swapped bodies with Mica Michaels and they both kind of like it.

Innocent

A man accused of stealing horses insists that he's being framed.

Charlie Azkhar thinks that Roxy Todd might be the real horse thief.

The Ball

The King and Queen are throwing a ball. ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY

Jelen Cunningham might shave their legs.

The Constable

The local constable has locked himself, and hostages, in the city jail.

Dan Marid thinks the constable is having a psychotic break.

Monkey Business

Everyone who owns a shop has been turned into a monkey.

Sisco Knight is actually a pretty cute monkey.

Refuge from Fire

One morning a few dwarves come walking down from the mountains, seeking refuge in the city. The next day many more arrive. A fire demon has taken residence in their mountain halls.

Jackson Weston feels those dwarves can find somewhere else to find refuge. Alondra Sybil wants to help the dwarves.
