Plot Hooks

Locale

Invaders!

A race of warriors, not known to these lands, has landed on the shores of the kingdom and displaced several villages and farms. They are not just raiders, and have already begun to establish settlement.

Ruby Barlow watched the invaders burn a village. Kamal Baggins wants revenge and is gathering a host to attack the invaders.

Sleep

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

Maddie Gleeson talks in their sleep.

The Last Message

A body is found with a note clutched in its hand. The party feels as though the note should be delivered to the dead man's wife.

Chandra Moongarden is the only person who can decipher the code written hastily at the bottom of the note.

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.

Eldon Wynne would go, but they have a bum leg, or so they claim.

The Last Wish

A stone has been found which houses a genie willing to grant wishes. He says he has one last wish he may grant, but wants to give it to someone who really deserves it.

Liam Reedwater wants the wish and will stop at nothing to get it.

Innocent

A man accused of stealing horses insists that he's being framed.

Karth Echols thinks that Gia Greentree might be the real horse thief.

Horde of the Mountain King

You find a map at the bottom of a chest. It is written in Dwarvish and, if read, identifies a treasure horde hidden high in the mountains

Tavi Duval thinks this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to make it rich. Reiko Bluepetal is concerned about what else might be guarding the horde...

Arm Wrestling Champion

An arm wrestling league is looking to crown it's latest champion.

Marion Fitzgerald thinks they have what it takes to win.

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.

Desmond Bloodhoof won't look you in the eye. Kallum Malfoy swears that you just spoke to him, and you looked angry
