Plot Hooks

Locale

The Errant Wizard

A famous wizard was meant to meet you, but never arrived. Rumours has it that the wizard went to the southern coast in search of an artifact, and never returned.

Charlie Hamilton thinks you should go look for him. The wizard is well-known for absentmindedness, and pursuing his research despite dangers or other concerns

The Usurper

A man has attempted to kill the king, failed, and then made a daring escape from the castle. It's likely he's going to try again.

Shirley Spring saw Hugo Travis speaking with the man in the days leading to the attack.

The Menu

A tavern has become quite well known for having delicious food. Problem is, the food is made up of humanoids.

Miriam Abasi bit into their meatloaf and pulled out a ring.

It Needs to Feed

A panicked farmer shows you to his henhouse. Inside you find a formless blob-like creature with long tendrils. There are no hens, and the creature appears to slowly be gaining in size.

Marge Malfoy has never seen a creature like this. Christopher Skullcrusher used to be an adventurer and remembers a gelatinous cube or ooze being similar

Farmhouse Haunting

A young boy went missing years ago, and his spirit has been haunting his poor mother and father since. They need help finding what they need to do to get their son to pass on from this world, so they can try to find peace themselves.

Bernie Beech thinks that the boy was kidnapped and killed, while Scarlett Shad believes the boy never left the farm...

Sleep

Everyone in the city has fallen asleep, and no one knows why or how.

Cyntia Deakin talks in their sleep.

Everyone's a Winner

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

Alex Quaresh challenges you to a drinking game. Gia Connington is collecting bets on the games.

The Painting

An old woman has died, and townsfolk are cleaning out her home when they find a strange and grotesque painting of a thin man covered in a black veil. The veil was removed, but the painting is stuck on the wall. That same night, someone was murdered.

Sahin Teagrass saw a thin man fleeing the scene of the crime.

Payment Due

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

Phoebe Sebastian admits that they do owe the man money, but they just don't have it. Janette Clarke may be willing to loan them what they need.
