Plot Hooks

Locale

Ghost Jail

The constable needs help figuring out why all of the prisoners he locks up die in the middle of the night. And why they all seem to be there still the next morning.

Claire Echols thinks the constable is a lot less innocent in the matter than he appears to be.

Behind the Villain

A dark lord who has been waging war against the kingdom for years turns out to be a fake. The real villain is a weakling human with a grudge.

Avery Ali swears they always knew something was up.

The Garrison

A group of soldiers fighting a war have come to town, looking for a place to stay and rest. The problem is, the war they're fighting ended over 100 years ago.

Vitriak Zaros isn't convinced the soldiers are ghosts.

The Spread

A disease has been slowly spreading throughout the city. It appears to be undetected by Detect Poison or Disease. Half-Orcs are not affected by the disease.

Kaith Gaelen thinks the orc tribes must have done this. Christopher Weston refuses to let you leave the city, to prevent any spread.

Zoo Troubles!

A travelling zoo has lost a few of their animals. It's up to you to find them!

Turok Hamilton saw one of the creatures run into the woods.

The Paladin's Oath

A well known Paladin has been found guilty of a gruesome murder. You know, however, he is innocent because you were with him during that time.

Delia Huon and Sylvia Northrend claim to have seen the murder occur.

The Missing Mentor

You are to meet an old mentor from your past at an old ruin in the wilds. You arrive early and wait for them. You know them to be punctual, always. They never arrive.

Hiram Carson has never reached out to you like this, you fear their concerns are grave.

Imposters

You arrive back at the local inn, but the look on the Innkeeper's face when you walk in the front door sets you back. "But... you all just went upstairs to rest, mere moments ago", he says shakily.

Ria Ghani won't look you in the eye. Homer Clarke swears that you just spoke to him, and you looked angry

The Hairy King

The King has come down with a case of the ol' werewolf-itis. The Queen would prefer no one know.

Monty Thom has their suspicions that the King might be a werewolf.
