Plot Hooks

Locale

Big Cows

Something has happened to a herd of cows and they've grown to giant level over night. The problem is, they're destroying the farms in the area.

Ivor Redtusk barely escaped a giant cow stampede with their life.

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.

Arios Hynes, the writer's agent, threatens you with legal action if any harm comes to the writer. Donovan Scott is the writer's #1 fan and offers to pay for the expedition if you let them come along.

The Haunted Wagon

A ghostly wagon travels through town each night.

Gwendolyn Wazels seems to be interested on boarding the wagon next time they see it.

The Heartless

Undead minions have begun attacking travellers. The undead are all missing their hearts.

Caroc Dunstan heard a story that you could control an undead fiend by taking their heart.

The Garrison

A group of soldiers fighting a war have come to town, looking for a place to stay and rest. The problem is, the war they're fighting ended over 100 years ago.

Felix James isn't convinced the soldiers are ghosts.

Ghost Tower

A stone tower has appeared nearby. A ring of specters is keeping everyone out.

Deimos Malfoy tried to rush past the ghosts but was thrown back fifty feet.

Playing God

A man who recently lost his wife is said to be attempting to bring her back by putting her soul within a flesh golem.

Claire Silvergem saw the widower digging up his wife's grave.

Premonitions

A woman has begun seeing the future. These premonitions come with no warning, and cause her pain and stress when they do. Her latest premonition deals with the end of the world as we know it.

Caroc Spall has known the woman with the visions since they were a child.

The Cursed Farm

Anyone who eats produce grown at the Big Steer Farm is transformed into raving lunatics intent on nothing but destruction and harm.
