The Fountain of Truth

There's a mysterious spring in the forest that seems in force those who drink from it tell the truth for a day or so.

Roxy Thom drank from the water and is now getting a divorce.

Silence

Everyone who gets within fifty feet of a tree that seems to be burning, but never burns away loses their voice forever.

Lorelei Enola went to the tree as a child and hasn't spoken since.

Sadness

Everyone in town can't stop crying.

Ashley Mehmed hasn't cried in years until now.

The Floating Gang

A group of bandits have set up a floating community just off the coast, where they terrorize passing ships.

Maz Vonner went out to join the gang.

Tiefling Trouble

A tiefling named Rokul is being targeted by a mysterious assassin.

Arianna Vinder seems to think the assassin is one of the Black Birds, a group of hired killers. Tatiana Ward doesn't think the Black Birds even exist.

What Dawn Brings

Every morning in this town you are awoken by the crow of the rooster. This morning, you are jolted awake by a horrible shriek and a sickening silence just after.

Practical Research

A famous adventure writer wishes to be brought on a quest with your party. You are to show her the ropes and keep her safe. Her publisher is not happy about it.
