Plot Hooks

Locale

Major Crimes

The dwarves of the southern hills have cut off all trade and closed their gates to any outsider without strict permission to enter. Someone has been shaving off their beards in the night, and they have asked your party to investigate.

Finley Pierce refuses to meet face to face with you, but rather wears a veil. Marge Korsk is so angry he flies off the handle at any mention of beards.

Forest Fire

A raging fire burns through the forest.

Raed Terryn is worried they'll lose their home.

The Dead Beggars

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

Mica Altharia thinks that less beggars in town is a good thing.

The Sinkhole

More than one farm has been swallowed up by a sinkhole in the area. Someone needs to find out what is going on.

It's believed by Bedelia Weatherby that giant worms are to blame.

Cannibals

There's a small town near the edge of the map which is full of humanoids who eat the flesh of other humanoids.

Hailee Stormrage is searching for their brother, who went missing near the village.

The One Who Watches

Ever since you looted an ancient burial site, you have dreamt of a strange creature. You have now started seeing it while awake.

Sisco Faelyn cannot see the creature you describe. Talia Moonvalley has started to treat you strangely after you confide your fears.

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!

Cynthia Lesley, a local lord, and his knights were not invited to the tournament. Landon Wilbur is a guard captain who partakes a bit heavily in drinking.

The Gate

Bandits have created a gate overnight and are insisting people pay a toll.

Aviad Dalton thinks the village militia should just kill the bandits.

Cats!

Everyone is turning into cats when the moon rises.

Winona Hasan is the only person who is seemingly immune.
