Plot Hooks

Locale

The Dead Beggars

The town's beggars are nowhere to be found. At least not until their shallow graves are discovered and exhumed.

Jayson Brocksby thinks that less beggars in town is a good thing.

Tax Time

A caravan of tax collectors from the nearby city was attacked and robbed on its way to town.

Natar Mowbry seems happy that the tax collectors lost everything.

The Child

The king calls you to an audience. A young tiefling child is with him. He asks you to escort this child to a city far away, to ask no questions, and travel quietly and with haste. The trip is paid for, and you are offered a kingly sum as a reward. The King seems nervous.

Aptal Bryce, an innkeeper, won't allow a tiefling under his roof. Aria Hawkwing saw unsavoury characters skulking about asking after a tiefling child.

Zombie Trouble

A horde of undead are making their way for town. Nothing has been able to stand in their way.

Celeste Masak thinks the gods are punishing everyone for their sins.

Through the Fade

Whenever you sleep, you dream of being watched by an impossible creature with many eyes, torturing you for answers. After the latest dream you awaken with physical marks of your torture on your body.

Sawyer Mervor cannot identify where the wounds come from. Amy Bozier suggests you speak to the local seer.

The Missing Kid

A boy has vanished. They know where he is, he's invisible.

Ruby Shadowmourne thinks the boy has been cursed.

The Book of Many Stories

A thick tome is found deep in a dungeon. The pages are blank unless only one person is looking at them. Then it appears to tell a story which may have more to do with reality, than fiction.

Katherine Stoutheart has heard of the book, and warns that no one should read it.

The New Chef

A new chef has been hired at the tavern. Unfortunately, he hasn't shown up for his first day.

Alicia Davis saw the chef drinking a bit too much the night before.

The Invisible Wall

No one may exit town, there's a n invisible barrier holding everyone back.

Landon Willow is going to go crazy if they can't leave soon.
