Plot Hooks

Locale

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.

Peter Rowe's brother was taken off.

Night of the Dog

All the dogs in the area have become murderous.

Percival Massa was the first one attacked by a pack of dogs.

The Troll

A troll has been terrorizing nearby villages.

Bundringo Gleeson saw the troll speaking to a man who looked like a wizard.

Melt

The weather has taken an inexplicable turn toward the hot, and the snow and ice are melting. So to, are those who live here in the tundra. A foul magic is at play, and it's a race against time to save everyone as they slowly turn to slush.

Aria Roderick thinks the answer lies at the peak of a nearby mountain.

Monkey Business

Everyone who owns a shop has been turned into a monkey.

Dottie Hamilton is actually a pretty cute monkey.

The Gambler

A man has been caught cheating at a card game in the tavern. He's being held in jail, but swears that he doesn't even know how to play the card game.

Kael Roundtree seems to think the man may be possessed by... something.

The Death Screech

A painful screech went up from a nearby mountain a few days ago. Most think the dragon is dead, but no one is willing to go and investigate.

Etienne Hume would go, but they have a bum leg, or so they claim.

The Lone Elf

An elf named Raven is the lone survivor of an attack by a goblin horde. Someone needs to convince her she shouldn't stay alone in the forest.

Brom Siggurd says Raven is standoffish and rude.

Ale Troubles

The local barkeep needs his monthly shipment of ale, but the brewer is too scared to bring it because of reports of a nearby dragon.

Ruth Bozier says they saw the dragon just yesterday.
