Plot Hooks

Locale

Sacrificial

A pack of demon worshipping gnolls have been abducting people to use in sacrifice.

Maz Roderick is willing to do anything to help stop the gnolls.

The Fountain of Truth

There's a mysterious spring in the forest that seems in force those who drink from it tell the truth for a day or so.

Gia Boone drank from the water and is now getting a divorce.

The Constable

The local constable has locked himself, and hostages, in the city jail.

Lois Marid thinks the constable is having a psychotic break.

The Woman in White

You are haunted by visions of a dead woman in white. She disappears when you walk in a particular direction, but otherwise she bars your way.

Jared Harber won't make eye contact with you. Killian Mulgrew calls you 'haunted', and makes a warding sign.

The Missing Kid

A boy has vanished. They know where he is, he's invisible.

Finley Autumn thinks the boy has been cursed.

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 Doran Stonesworn.

It's a Hog's Life

After a night of drinking and feasting in the town, you awaken to find the town empty of villagers and instead it is filled with hogs

Fribbington Hasan says the town worships a respectable goddess of the land, harvest and charity. Balur Hume only allows those who are strictly invited to the feats to participate.

The Relic

While perusing a local shop, you are drawn to an old, rusty sword. It feels familiar in your hand and when you turn it over you find your name engraved on the blade.

Petter Lord, the elderly shopkeeper, says the sword has been in this shop for as long as he can remember. Sohali Weston recognizes you, but cannot quite place where from.

The Ship

A wrecked warship has washed up on the beach. Problem is, it's a ship that hasn't even been launched yet from the nearby port.

Helen Abasi is supposed to work on the ship during its maiden voyage.
