Plot Hooks

Locale

The Tournament

A fighting tournament to the death is being held for the king's pleasure. The winner will receive anything he asks for from the King.

Alex Pierce is eager to sign up.

The Meat Eater

A little girl was found by a friendly circus troupe and brought with them to town. Well, that was the plan. She's the only one who actually made it to town, covered in the blood of the troup.

Chloe Alhara is sure the little girl ate the circus troupe.

Princess Power

A princess is said to be the only one powerful enough to defeat a reborn necromancer.

Arish Wilbur thinks that Dov Carson is a servant of the necromancer.

Princess Problems

A princess is said to disappear once a month, and no one can find her. It may be related to the bodies around town that spring up that same night.

Sahin Todd feels crazy for being the only person to realize the princess is a werewolf.

Ghost Jail

The constable needs help figuring out why all of the prisoners he locks up die in the middle of the night. And why they all seem to be there still the next morning.

Sawyer Elonil thinks the constable is a lot less innocent in the matter than he appears to be.

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.

Tamara Orsan says the King has been missing, some believe he was assassinated

The Buried Giant

A large hill is gone as dawn breaks. What was thought to be a hill turned out to be a giant resting beneath the earth. He's awake now.

Vetack Scott has a fear of giants.

The Stranger

The door to the tavern opens, and an old companion from years before enters. You are shocked, as you watched them die.

The companion does not remember you.

A New World

You are part of a fleet of colony ships. Struck by a storm the fleet was scattered, and your ship makes landing on an unknown shore. The other ships are lost and the inhabitants are unhappy that you are here.

Nayeli Anwen is concerned about the gathering storm clouds. Belor Marshall expects the the land to be empty of intelligent beings.
