Plot Hooks

Locale

The Cheater

The townskeeper's wife has been seen out and about with another man. This is a problem, because the townskeeper is a crazy person.

Nina Sybil thinks everyone needs to not say a thing to the townskeeper.

False Idol

For generations, the people of this valley have given an offering to a local deity on a hill, and a good harvest and prosperity have followed. Recently, the locals erected a monument at the place of offering. Since then, their crops have begun to fail.

Carly Weatherby believes the offerings of food were wasteful, and that the monument is a more permanent showing of their devotion. Renee Northrend fears the monument was a mistake, and now a larger show of devotion is necessary.

Big Cows

Something has happened to a herd of cows and they've grown to giant level over night. The problem is, they're destroying the farms in the area.

Enzo Dempsy barely escaped a giant cow stampede with their life.

The Cursed Farm

Anyone who eats produce grown at the Big Steer Farm is transformed into raving lunatics intent on nothing but destruction and harm.

The farm was recently sold to Muriel Carter.

The New Jester

A funnyman was recently hired by a prince. Bad news is the funnyman turned out to be an evil funnyman, and he's killed the prince and gone on the run.

Eliot Sams used to date the jester.

The Manor

People have been vanishing in the woods nearby. There is only a rundown manor in the area.

Olivier AnaanShan claims there is a secret room in the basement of the manor.

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.

Jarrad Duffield would go, but they have a bum leg, or so they claim.

The Usurper

A man has attempted to kill the king, failed, and then made a daring escape from the castle. It's likely he's going to try again.

Cassius Cunningham saw Alexandra Asis speaking with the man in the days leading to the attack.

The Mirror

An old mirror is found in the abandoned tower of a wizard. While looking into the mirror, your reflection gives you a grave look and speaks: "I have come to warn you... something is coming and your world is not prepared."

Raed El-Hasan says this wizard used to be a kind old man, but something changed in him making him paranoid. Muriel Bane is the grandchild of the late wizard.
