Plot Hooks

Locale

Left for Dead

A man was attacked and left for dead on the side of the road. Now he's looking for help when it comes to getting revenge.

Ricky Kaye is letting the man stay at their house.

Everyone's a Winner

The pub is offering up a series of tournaments: cards, drinking, darts and music. Prizes include magic items and treasure.

Sion Kastrix challenges you to a drinking game. Taylor Walker is collecting bets on the games.

Monster Maker

A man plans to exact revenge on all those who slighted him by creating a monster that will follow his every command.

Nina Wood isn't too worried. The guy who wants to create the monster is a known failure.

All in One Place

The Great Council of Wizards is to meet in the capital. There is a festival coinciding with the meeting and great throngs of people come from far and wide to take part. During the meeting, a massive explosion rocks the great tower where the meeting takes place. Chaos ensues.

Sawyer Huon believes a meeting like this is just a political stunt by the cities elite to show their dominance over the poor. Doran Crump don't trust magic, never will.

Eruption

A dormant volcano is suddenly not as dormant as those who live nearby would like.

Dina Anwen thinks magic may be the cause of the upcoming eruption, and not nature.

The Closed Mine

A nearby mine has closed, laying off a hundred workers, who now have no idea how they're going to support themselves and their families.

Max Enola thinks the owner of the mine is up to something shady.

What Lurks in the Fog?

The village is quick to welcome you to their food and fire. In the evening, a dense fog rolls in and surrounds the village. The villagers begin to don armour and weapons, and you hear the unearthly shriek echoes out of the fog.

Nico Frost believes the fog creatures to be the dead, having risen from the barrow lands to the east. Lana Joygrove apologizes for tricking you, but explains that they desperately need your help.

The Buried Fortress

A recent earthquake has uncovered what looks to be a massive fortress that was built underground.

Torek Greene thinks the fortress sank, Lillian Nozzlenuck thinks it was built underground.

The Tunnels

The Queen snuck out of the castle in the dead of night. She was seen entering a nearby mine, and has been lost among the maze like tunnels. It's up to a party of adventurers to find her.

Vuska Barlow thinks the Queen may be under hypnosis.
