Plot Hooks

Locale

An Evil Lurks

A long abandoned fortress to the north has been seen lit up at night by floating blue lights. A foul air permeates the nearby land.

Selene Sams warns that odd fey creatures live in the region. Marina Wilton wouldn't go near the fortress if you paid them.

Worms!

After the torrential rains lately, thousands, if not millions, of earthworms are overrunning town.

Max Wilbur likes to fish, so they're not stressed about the worms.

Payment Due

A mysterious man is in town claiming that he's owed money.

Roan Gleeson admits that they do owe the man money, but they just don't have it. Hayden Adir may be willing to loan them what they need.

The Shopping List

A travelling wizard needs helps gathering supplies for his potions.

Avery Enola seems to think the wizard is a fake, and may be leading the party toward doom.

The Fight

A famous pugilist is looking for one last fight.

Aubrey Weston is interested in taking up the challenge.

Goblin Tower

A local wizard is requesting assistance. He is embarrassed to admit he lost control of his nearby wizard tower to a tribe of goblins and it is only a matter of time until they accidentally tear a hole in reality.

Nena Reece has always felt the wizard was dangerous, and this just proves he is also dumb. Esmeralda Oathstone claims to have seen glowing lights coming from the tower the previous night.

A Fungus Among Us

Odd mushrooms have sprouted up in the forest. And on anyone who touches them. Those infected seem to be acting...strangely.

Summer Enola has one of the mushrooms growing on their forehead.

Heat Wave

A wall of flame a mile high and thirty miles long is spreading through the forest, destroying everything in its path.

Riley Redtusk thinks the wall of flame began near a wizard's tower home.

Family Heirloom

You enter a city for the first time, and after a few hours wandering about you see a man carrying a particular sword. You recognize it, as it was your father's (or mother's) sword.

Katherine Scott has no idea who you are or what you are talking about. Sarab Amal has seen that man before, wearing that sword.
