Plot Hooks

Locale

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.

Cassius Crewe thinks the village should close their doors to any and all refugees.

Thirst Trap

No one in town can be sated. Water!

The only person immune is Myron Vinder.

The One Who Watches

Ever since you looted an ancient burial site, you have dreamt of a strange creature. You have now started seeing it while awake.

Reynald Enola cannot see the creature you describe. Jared Zaki has started to treat you strangely after you confide your fears.

The Weird Relic

You reach into your bag of holding and draw out an unfamiliar relic. It is a small doll-like figure, carved from bone. "Help me..." it cries, and small beads of water begin to drip from its carved eyes.

Mace Ashfield that bag of holding is ancient, must be one of the earliest of its kind,

The Tournament

A fighting tournament to the death is being held for the king's pleasure. The winner will receive anything he asks for from the King.

Mandy Ashbringer is eager to sign up.

The Missing Letter

A letter proving a man's innocence has gone missing, a day before he is to be hung.

Eden Gellar hates the man, and swore to Hawke Blackve that nothing would save him.

The Floating Gang

A group of bandits have set up a floating community just off the coast, where they terrorize passing ships.

Dina Grail went out to join the gang.

Night of the Tornadoes

Tornado after tornado pummels the city at night.

Simone Deadeye believes the tornados are the work of a wizard.

Gold Filch

You reach to your coin purse the pay for the item and notice, to your dismay, that all your gold is missing.
