Plot Hooks

Locale

The Living Statue

A statue appears in a slightly different pose each morning.

Matteus Haggard swears they saw the statue walking around just past midnight when they were younger.

The Riders Come

Your party has been travelling for days through unknown territory. Someone spots a large host of riders off in the distance. The riders change direction and begin to ride directly at you.

Weston Broadbent warns that the riders to the west are not to be trusted. River Wretch once traded with the western folk, and found them to be reasonable.

Execution

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

Alaysia Siggurd thinks the man is innocent.

Blinded

Half the population is blind suddenly.

Favian Moran is thankful they can still see.

The Orc Leader

Zurk is a half orc who wants to leave his orc clan life behind. But his father expects him to take over his role as chief.

Daniel Korsk thinks that an orc will never change their stripes.

The Troll

A troll has been terrorizing nearby villages.

Rowan Enola saw the troll speaking to a man who looked like a wizard.

The Lost Tribe

Hundreds of years ago an Elvish tribe vanished from the forest in which they lived. Now, they're back, and no time at all has seemed to pass for them.

Sion Crewe was the one who discovered the tribe.

Thirst Trap

No one in town can be sated. Water!

The only person immune is Gwendolyn Hume.

Innocent

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

Lara Orsan thinks that Leif Teagrass might be the real horse thief.
