Plot Hooks

Locale

Where is Your Rider?

A riderless horse, with tack and saddle, approaches you and will not leave you alone. When you climb onto its back, it gallops to the west.

Kaith Orsan has been missing in this region for days.

Zealots

A new religion has swept the area, and those who believe are starting to round up and kill those who do not.

Chandra Jorgen thinks that Rodney Hasan is only pretending to be in the religion in order to survive.

Carrots

Some folks in town swear they've been attacked by carrots.

Mia Roderick says they survived an attack by biting the carrots back.

Tiefling Trouble

A tiefling named Rokul is being targeted by a mysterious assassin.

Laurel Browneye seems to think the assassin is one of the Black Birds, a group of hired killers. Jill Gale doesn't think the Black Birds even exist.

The Fugitive

An old man is said to be a war criminal in the last great war and has been hiding out and posing as the innkeep for the last fifty years. Now people are closing in, and he doesn't know what he should do.

Dottie Hemlock thinks everyone should just leave the old guy alone.

Queen Crazy Pants

The Queen has gone insane, and bathes in the blood of attractive people in an effort to keep herself youthful.

Sadie Roderick is a little peeved the Queen hasn't attempted to take them yet.

Map Quest

A map has been found, which leads to another map, and then another...

Sumesh Stormrage believes that eventually one of the dang maps will lead to treasure.

The Missing Mentor

You are to meet an old mentor from your past at an old ruin in the wilds. You arrive early and wait for them. You know them to be punctual, always. They never arrive.

Parker Clarke has never reached out to you like this, you fear their concerns are grave.

The Floating Gang

A group of bandits have set up a floating community just off the coast, where they terrorize passing ships.

Cynthia Thom went out to join the gang.
