Plot Hooks

Locale

The Ageless

A small group of travelling wanderers seem to not age.

Indra Mournhell met the group as a child, and they're all the same age as they were back then.

A Dire Path

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

Olivia Michaels feels the path was blocked on purpose. Maz Marid is comfortable going underground.

Reparations

Goblins have come to town looking for money and supplies to be donated for their years of suffering at the hands of the townspeople.

Gregory Quaresh is on the goblin's side.

From the Clouds

A large gray cloud rolls across the land, and terrifying flying creatures descend from within, and snatch up people and carry them back up to the cloud, never to be seen again.

Olivier Norton's brother was taken off.

The Singer

A woman has come to town who can put people in a trance by singing to them.

Katja Anwen is under the singer's thrall.

Sleep

Everyone in the city has fallen asleep, and no one knows why or how.

Alys Meadowbrook talks in their sleep.

The Storm

A massive storm has been raging for a month. There is no let up, and it appears to stretch across the continent.

Robert Terryn seems to think the storm is magical in origin while Ragnar Marshall thinks it's the work of the gods.

The Ball

The King and Queen are throwing a ball. ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY

Quentin Hickory might shave their legs.

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.

Kasandra Loch thinks the lead actor, an elf named Garson, may be killing people.
