Plot Hooks

Locale

Forest Fire

A raging fire burns through the forest.

Favian Northrend is worried they'll lose their home.

The Host

A lonely old man is eager for company. He may not be who he says he is, however.

Percival Altharia warns everyone to stay away from the old man.

False Idol

For generations, the people of this valley have given an offering to a local deity on a hill, and a good harvest and prosperity have followed. Recently, the locals erected a monument at the place of offering. Since then, their crops have begun to fail.

Shay Norton believes the offerings of food were wasteful, and that the monument is a more permanent showing of their devotion. Hugh Mervor fears the monument was a mistake, and now a larger show of devotion is necessary.

Wild Wind

The wind lately is so severe it's almost impossible to walk in.

Valnis Abasi blew away yesterday.

Slime

A large mound of slime is making its way through the dungeon, eating everything in its path.

Robert Darwin barely escaped the dungeon with their life.

The Haunted Bay

Ghosts are said to haunt a bay that was once home to a busy port. Some say the ghosts are from a sunken ship that crashed 100 years ago.

Bart Hynes thinks that the ghosts aren't real, and someone is playing a trick on the community.

The Red Star

A local doomsayer has been claiming the end is nigh. On the night of his 'coming doom', a red star streaks across the sigh and crashes into an old ruin in the nearby hills.

Hart Pierre-Dupois it told by the gods when the world will end. Lilith Lord believes falling stars are natural phenomena and do not suggest the end of the world.

The Missing King

The King has vanished. No one knows where he is.

Jeffrey Amal was working with an underground group of rebels who wanted to depose the King.

Tourney Troubles

You are participating in the grand melee, the pinnacle competition during the Summer Tournament. In the midst of the combat, shouts ring out from the crowd. The tournament grounds are under attack!

Liam Timber, a local lord, and his knights were not invited to the tournament. Taylor Lonerock is a guard captain who partakes a bit heavily in drinking.
