Plot Hooks

Locale

The Haunted Wagon

A ghostly wagon travels through town each night.

Fribbington Zantus seems to be interested on boarding the wagon next time they see it.

Horde of the Mountain King

You find a map at the bottom of a chest. It is written in Dwarvish and, if read, identifies a treasure horde hidden high in the mountains

Sophie Beech thinks this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to make it rich. Sadie Haggard is concerned about what else might be guarding the horde...

Poisoned

The town magistrate has been poisoned and hangs on the cusp of death.

Bundringo Silvertree hated the magistrate.

The Talking Birds

Birds have begun talking in common. And they're all rude.

Blake Norton got into a fist fight with a mouthy raven.

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

George Gale says the town worships a respectable goddess of the land, harvest and charity. Isis Pierce only allows those who are strictly invited to the feats to participate.

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.

Sisco Pierce wants to banish the child, while Emily Walker thinks maybe something worse is in order.

Ambushed from Within

One of the wagons you are escorting suspiciously loses a wheel in the middle of a forest road. The other guards whisper to one another and ready their weapons.

The caravan master was convinced to hire these guards in the previous town. Elvira Rowe mistrusts the new guards.

The New Chef

A new chef has been hired at the tavern. Unfortunately, he hasn't shown up for his first day.

Sawyer Fae saw the chef drinking a bit too much the night before.

A Persistent Chill

As spring arrives in the valley, the winter thaw never occurs. The river stays frozen and a chill wind blows in from the mountain pass in the north.

Diego Quaresh fears they will run out of wood. Christopher Amal cannot get out onto the lake to fish.
