Plot Hooks

Locale

Silence

Everyone who gets within fifty feet of a tree that seems to be burning, but never burns away loses their voice forever.

Mica Wildwood went to the tree as a child and hasn't spoken since.

A Dire Path

The obvious path to your goal is blocked. There is a side route however, but it is far more dangerous.

Talia Reddy feels the path was blocked on purpose. Weston Carter is comfortable going underground.

The Dead Killer

A necromancer is bringing forth an army of undead, but there's a mystical sword called Dead Killer which may help turn the tide, if it can be found.

Graak Crewe will outfit a parry interested in finding the sword.

The Troll

A troll has been terrorizing nearby villages.

Shirley Banes saw the troll speaking to a man who looked like a wizard.

Where is Your Rider?

A riderless horse, with tack and saddle, approaches you and will not leave you alone. When you climb onto its back, it gallops to the west.

Jessica Fordragon has been missing in this region for days.

Seeing Double

Anyone who touches a mysterious rock which fell from the sky separates into two people, one of which is good, the other evil.

Katarina Donovan is thinking about touching the rock.

A Father

A grieving man is willing to do anything to get his dead child back.

Sigrid Scott is worried the man is going to make a deal with a dark force.

The Living Ship

A ship has been spotted off the coast which appears to be void of a crew, and able to transform itself to somewhat resemble a shark, it's massive mouth biting into other ships and dragging them under the waves.

Jared Whisperwind is too afraid to go into the water now.

The Fog

A strange fog has rolled in to cover the landscape. Anyone who ventures into the fog, is never seen again.

There have been multiple people who claim to have seen someone, or something moving within the fog, including Karth Connington.
