Plot Hooks

Locale

All in One Place

The Great Council of Wizards is to meet in the capital. There is a festival coinciding with the meeting and great throngs of people come from far and wide to take part. During the meeting, a massive explosion rocks the great tower where the meeting takes place. Chaos ensues.

Doran Marid believes a meeting like this is just a political stunt by the cities elite to show their dominance over the poor. Doran Sams don't trust magic, never will.

The Chosen

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

Taylor Mervor worked with a group to hide the boy so none could find him.

Practical Research

A famous adventure writer wishes to be brought on a quest with your party. You are to show her the ropes and keep her safe. Her publisher is not happy about it.

Stephanie Reddy, the writer's agent, threatens you with legal action if any harm comes to the writer. Levi Monroe is the writer's #1 fan and offers to pay for the expedition if you let them come along.

Brewfest

The brew fest has arrived! But the caravan carrying the brew has not, and it has now been a week overdue.

Riley Blaze ordered the brews from the nearby city weeks ago. Raven Jones is prepared to cancel the breakfast if the brews are not found.

Crossroads

While travelling, you pass a crossroad with a small cemetery. A few hours later, you pass by the same crossroads, although you have not changed your direction.

Lucia Loch tells you not to go down that road. Rory Pierce smiles slightly too wide when talking to you.

The Invisible Elf

After ingesting a strange plant, an elf has turned invisible.

Jackson Laroque thinks the invisible elf has been stealing things from people.

Goblin Tower

A local wizard is requesting assistance. He is embarrassed to admit he lost control of his nearby wizard tower to a tribe of goblins and it is only a matter of time until they accidentally tear a hole in reality.

Vivian Stormtiger has always felt the wizard was dangerous, and this just proves he is also dumb. Baasim Grail claims to have seen glowing lights coming from the tower the previous night.

Heat Wave

A wall of flame a mile high and thirty miles long is spreading through the forest, destroying everything in its path.

Eden Hillard thinks the wall of flame began near a wizard's tower home.

The Secret Cave

The party is flagged down by a boy who is soaking wet. He leads the party to a nearby pond and dives under with them, leading everyone to an underground cave. The boy says his friend was taken while they were exploring.

The cave wall has three names carved into it. Bedelia Black, Tenjon Walker, and Hiaenna Roderick.
