Plot Hooks

Locale

Trickster Makes This World

A child has become trapped in a magical snare. Releasing the child proves to be a simple matter, but the consequences are far more dire. The child turns out to be a malevolent trickster spirit, now unleashed upon the local region.

Muriel Leaffall fears the nearby ruins and advises all to stay away. Sulfras Hume is a child who dreams of adventure.

The Cursed Necklace

A woman in town was gifted a necklace by a secret admirer. Now she's sick, and quickly heading toward death.

The only suspect is Neil Schmidt.

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.

Clementine Oak it told by the gods when the world will end. Sahin Michaels believes falling stars are natural phenomena and do not suggest the end of the world.

Off Day!

There's nothing to do today! Absolutely nothing!

Mica Payne said something, but you don't even need to listen!

Arachnophobia

There have been multiple people who claim to have seen someone, or something moving within the fog, including Tanis Stormrage.

Everyone's a Winner
