Plot Hooks

Locale

A Stone's Throw

During his crowning ceremony, the Prince is struck in the head by a stone thrown from the crowd, his wound is great and falls into coma.

Bart Grail, the King's brother, immediately claims the throne as his nephew is no longer capable of ruling. Lillian Quicktongue claims there is civil war on the horizon unless someone can heal the boy's wounds and prove the Uncle's involvement.

The Stranger

The door to the tavern opens, and an old companion from years before enters. You are shocked, as you watched them die.

The companion does not remember you.

Race Against Time

The Townskeeper has been poisoned. The only cure is made by a strange old wizard who lives a days ride away.

Delia Faelyn is willing to let the party borrow horses.

God Fight!

Two gods have come to the mortal plain and are duking it out.

Olivier Blackfist is rooting for the more handsome god.

The Riders Come

Your party has been travelling for days through unknown territory. Someone spots a large host of riders off in the distance. The riders change direction and begin to ride directly at you.

Helena Frost warns that the riders to the west are not to be trusted. Marilyn Ferrier once traded with the western folk, and found them to be reasonable.

Maniac Maze

More than one adventuring group has been lost in a nearby dungeon.

Shark Miller managed to return from the dungeon, and swears that the walls shift and move.

The Ship

A wrecked warship has washed up on the beach. Problem is, it's a ship that hasn't even been launched yet from the nearby port.

Nayeli Greene is supposed to work on the ship during its maiden voyage.

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.

Simone Zantus wants the wish and will stop at nothing to get it.

Ale Troubles

The local barkeep needs his monthly shipment of ale, but the brewer is too scared to bring it because of reports of a nearby dragon.

Sawyer White says they saw the dragon just yesterday.
