Plot Hooks

Locale

The Possessed

A coven of witches has seemingly called forth demons from the underworld to possess innocents in a nearby town.

It's said the witches want to kill Mia Everett.

A Blade without Peer

A legendary blacksmith has set up in a nearby village. She has heard that a star of metal fell in the nearby hills, and offers to make a weapon of magnificence for any who bring her the metal.

Kyris Reece can guide you to the location where the star fell. Violet Loch noticed more goblins and orcs in the hills nearby to the fallen star.

Crossroads

While travelling, you pass a crossroad with a small cemetery. A few hours later, you pass by the same crossroads, although you have not changed your direction.

Derrick Selwyn tells you not to go down that road. Shirley Echols smiles slightly too wide when talking to you.

Black Sky

All of the stars have vanished.

Kiran Carter is determined to find out what happened. Rowan Bozier thinks creatures from space ate the stars.

The Actor

A travelling acting troupe has come to town. They are doing a mystery play, which seems to come true the very night the perform it.

Charlotte Oaktree thinks the lead actor, an elf named Garson, may be killing people.

The Flood

A flood has covered hundreds of miles, leaving nothing but a small village that was built upon the top of a great hill. Settlers from flooded towns are seeking refuge, but there's not enough supplies to go around, and some refugees and plotting to take over.

Henry Moran thinks the village should close their doors to any and all refugees.

Cats!

Everyone is turning into cats when the moon rises.

Miles Thom is the only person who is seemingly immune.

Into the Corn

A cornfield at a nearby farm lets people in, but does not let them out.

Fribbington Kensley's brother went into the corn last week, and hasn't been seen since.

The Shopping List

Roan Pierce seems to think the wizard is a fake, and may be leading the party toward doom.
