Plot Hooks

Locale

The Cloud

A massive gray stormcloud has appeared in the sky. Everyone's mood seems negatively affected by the cloud, and it's leading to trouble.

Tatiana Travis hasn't stopped crying in a week.

The Mirror

An old mirror is found in the abandoned tower of a wizard. While looking into the mirror, your reflection gives you a grave look and speaks: "I have come to warn you... something is coming and your world is not prepared."

Claudia Alhara says this wizard used to be a kind old man, but something changed in him making him paranoid. Sahin Briggs is the grandchild of the late wizard.

A Creeping Corruption

A ranger has found a spreading disease deep in the forest which is killing all the vegetation and turning the animals mad. The spread will soon reach the outskirts of a local city and the farms that feed it.

Sahin Haggard believes there is a druid who may be able to help. Kasandra Boone last saw the druid more than a month before when they purchased potions from the druid.

Race Against Time

The Townskeeper has been poisoned. The only cure is made by a strange old wizard who lives a days ride away.

Anto Hemlock is willing to let the party borrow horses.

The Tome of Unspeakable Evil

An archaeological expedition unearths an ancient book. Within a week, all in the expedition are killed and the lead archaeologist kidnapped.

Tavi Redscar is an expert in old elven lore, and funded the project. Lacy Terryn led the expedition to their location but returned home straight away.

The Pauper King

You find a beggar on the side of the road outside a major city, looking confused and out of sorts. With a start, you recognize him as the local king.

Torek Lord says the King has been missing, some believe he was assassinated

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.

Nathaniel Duval is letting the man stay at their house.

The Death Screech

A painful screech went up from a nearby mountain a few days ago. Most think the dragon is dead, but no one is willing to go and investigate.

Evonne Terryn would go, but they have a bum leg, or so they claim.

Everyone's a Winner

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

Keeley Winterheart challenges you to a drinking game. Martha Mowbry is collecting bets on the games.
