Plot Hooks

Locale

Kids

A town has been taken over by children, and all the adults have been slain.

Shannon Hickory managed to escape from the town.

The Living Statue

A statue appears in a slightly different pose each morning.

Amira Mervor swears they saw the statue walking around just past midnight when they were younger.

All in One Place

The Great Council of Wizards is to meet in the capital. There is a festival coinciding with the meeting and great throngs of people come from far and wide to take part. During the meeting, a massive explosion rocks the great tower where the meeting takes place. Chaos ensues.

Alaya Payne believes a meeting like this is just a political stunt by the cities elite to show their dominance over the poor. Jim Terryn don't trust magic, never will.

Invaders within!

Goblins are in the middle of the city! A series of caves have opened up in the sewers and streets and the city is under attack from within!

Femlin Marshall doesn't believe goblins could have done this on their own. Alexandra Roberts requests the adventurers helps his family at a local Inn

Execution

A crazed murderer has escaped and fled the night before his planned execution.

Lawson Malfoy thinks the man is innocent.

A Fungus Among Us

Odd mushrooms have sprouted up in the forest. And on anyone who touches them. Those infected seem to be acting...strangely.

Sapphire Cruise has one of the mushrooms growing on their forehead.

Worms!

After the torrential rains lately, thousands, if not millions, of earthworms are overrunning town.

Ewan Lord likes to fish, so they're not stressed about the worms.

Cats!

Everyone is turning into cats when the moon rises.

Rey Sybil is the only person who is seemingly immune.

The Unicorn

You are awoken from your rest while at camp to the sound of a horse. As you follow the sound you see the truth: it is a rare unicorn and it is injured.

Jen Horrig believes a magical creature lives in the woods nearby. Cassie Connington's dream is to see a unicorn in person.
