Plot Hooks

Locale

Goblin Town

A town of peaceful goblin's needs help to protect themselves from humans intent on killing them all.

Andrew Silvervalley doesn't believe the goblins are peaceful. Duck Fitzgerald does, and is trying to stop the others from attacking.

The Shop

A traveling salesman claims he can get anything for anyone. For a price. He's set up shop just outside of town.

Gavril Dresdain is wondering if the salesman can get his hands on a magical necklace.

The Child

The king calls you to an audience. A young tiefling child is with him. He asks you to escort this child to a city far away, to ask no questions, and travel quietly and with haste. The trip is paid for, and you are offered a kingly sum as a reward. The King seems nervous.

Avery Selwyn, an innkeeper, won't allow a tiefling under his roof. Theodora Barlow saw unsavoury characters skulking about asking after a tiefling child.

More Money!

Gold pieces have rained down from the sky over a small village. The new wealth has created some problems, to say the least.

Nathalie Weatherby went from dirt poor to the richest in town.

It Needs to Feed

A panicked farmer shows you to his henhouse. Inside you find a formless blob-like creature with long tendrils. There are no hens, and the creature appears to slowly be gaining in size.

Jasper Bigtooth has never seen a creature like this. Parker Lucas used to be an adventurer and remembers a gelatinous cube or ooze being similar

Major Crimes

The dwarves of the southern hills have cut off all trade and closed their gates to any outsider without strict permission to enter. Someone has been shaving off their beards in the night, and they have asked your party to investigate.

Jacek Laroque refuses to meet face to face with you, but rather wears a veil. Alondra Roderick is so angry he flies off the handle at any mention of beards.

Princess Problems

A princess is said to disappear once a month, and no one can find her. It may be related to the bodies around town that spring up that same night.

George Stone feels crazy for being the only person to realize the princess is a werewolf.

The Contest

Two wizards have decided to see who is really the greater magic user. problem is they're doing this by seeing who can turn the most townsfolk into pigs.

Sahin Deadeye was the first one to be changed into a pig.

They Come at Night

A roving band of creatures no one has ever seen before attacks towns and villages at night, killing all those within.

Marilyn Ellis thinks a militia should be formed to protect their hometown.
