Plot Hooks

Locale

It Descends Upon Us.

The winds have changed and risen to a gale, a freezing rain begins to fall and a road cuts across the harbour. You think you hear the beat of massive wings. A lightning strike reveals a massive beast soaring above the clouds.

Isis Clarke believes dragons are just a myth. Kyle Spike is afraid of thunder.

The Pyromancer

Everytime a young girl in town has a bad dream, a structure is lit on fire. She can't control it, but having her around is dangerous.

Mugheer Hale wants to banish the child, while Quentin Bladefist thinks maybe something worse is in order.

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.

Bundringo Siggurd would go, but they have a bum leg, or so they claim.

The Missing King

The King has vanished. No one knows where he is.

Ceri Watson was working with an underground group of rebels who wanted to depose the King.

The Yeti

A mysterious beast with white hair has been seen nearby. It's roars can be heard at night.

Cyntia Zaki is going to hunt the animal down.

Hurricane

A massive hurricane has sprung up from nowhere.

Barnston Greennose heard Stephanie Moontree say that a druid is to blame.

The Prisoner

A man is found passed out by the road. A manacle hangs off one wrist, and his clad in only dirty trousers. He claims he has no memory of where he's come from.

Clio Donovan first saw the man while heading back to town.

Parasite

A small water based parasite has been attaching itself to people who swim in a nearby lake. Once attached, they can control the bodies of their hosts.

Caroc Weston is convinced they're the only person in town not possessed.

Fetch Quest

The forest warden has asked you to cull seven black bears as their population has been getting out of control. The innkeeper asks your to bring him five intact bear livers.

Everyone in town repeats the same greetings over and over. Eliot Poots won't speak to you until you prove yourself to the town.
