Plot Hooks

Locale

Behind the Villain

A dark lord who has been waging war against the kingdom for years turns out to be a fake. The real villain is a weakling human with a grudge.

Fribbington Frida swears they always knew something was up.

An Unlucky Number

A company of twelve warriors is searching for a thirteenth. It turns out you have been nominated.

One of the twelve, named Cora Thom, seems to make many significant glances at Edgar Roderick.

The New Chef

A new chef has been hired at the tavern. Unfortunately, he hasn't shown up for his first day.

Vivian Enola saw the chef drinking a bit too much the night before.

Through the Fade

Whenever you sleep, you dream of being watched by an impossible creature with many eyes, torturing you for answers. After the latest dream you awaken with physical marks of your torture on your body.

Karth White cannot identify where the wounds come from. Nina Dempsy suggests you speak to the local seer.

The Last Message

A body is found with a note clutched in its hand. The party feels as though the note should be delivered to the dead man's wife.

Anika Hickory is the only person who can decipher the code written hastily at the bottom of the note.

Everyone's a Winner

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

Yoko Reddy challenges you to a drinking game. Eliot Bradley is collecting bets on the games.

The Invisible Elf

After ingesting a strange plant, an elf has turned invisible.

Sarab Ellis thinks the invisible elf has been stealing things from people.

Night Life

Girls are going missing after visiting a popular tavern at night.

Garry Loch wants the tavern closed down until the girls are found.

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.

Roxy Anwen has never seen a creature like this. Stuart Walker used to be an adventurer and remembers a gelatinous cube or ooze being similar
