Plot Hooks

Locale

The Closed Mine

A nearby mine has closed, laying off a hundred workers, who now have no idea how they're going to support themselves and their families.

River Roderick thinks the owner of the mine is up to something shady.

Hurricane

A massive hurricane has sprung up from nowhere.

Cassie Fae heard Vetack Hynes say that a druid is to blame.

Avalanche

An avalanche is moving swiftly down the mountain and will be here in moments.

Kiernan Frost is sure everyone will die.

The Missing Letter

A letter proving a man's innocence has gone missing, a day before he is to be hung.

Frances Azkhar hates the man, and swore to Elevrir Stone that nothing would save him.

Goblin Tower

A local wizard is requesting assistance. He is embarrassed to admit he lost control of his nearby wizard tower to a tribe of goblins and it is only a matter of time until they accidentally tear a hole in reality.

Jacques Gemtree has always felt the wizard was dangerous, and this just proves he is also dumb. Magda Alma claims to have seen glowing lights coming from the tower the previous night.

God Fight!

Two gods have come to the mortal plain and are duking it out.

Brenda Hale is rooting for the more handsome god.

What Lurks in the Fog?

The village is quick to welcome you to their food and fire. In the evening, a dense fog rolls in and surrounds the village. The villagers begin to don armour and weapons, and you hear the unearthly shriek echoes out of the fog.

Lincoln Boone believes the fog creatures to be the dead, having risen from the barrow lands to the east. Dottie Ghani apologizes for tricking you, but explains that they desperately need your help.

A Circus of Pain

A travelling zoo has set up in a nearby town. You have been asked to investigate rumours that the prize attraction is an intelligent being, enslaved.

Stewert Lucas wants to go see the new creature. Nicholas Terryn considers what the zookeeper does to be slavery and he should be held accountable.

The Duel

Two men are going to duel to the death for the hand of a woman. Neither know the woman has secretly married the person she really loves.

Sion Travis is the one who married the woman.
