Plot Hooks

Locale

The Cheater

The townskeeper's wife has been seen out and about with another man. This is a problem, because the townskeeper is a crazy person.

Dieter Abbey thinks everyone needs to not say a thing to the townskeeper.

Water, water, everywhere

People are getting sick. The river water turned sour the week before. Someone needs to explore up the river way to find the problem.

Jago Kaye claims a druid is meant to protect the northern forest and riverway. Cassie Dunstan has fallen deathly ill from drinking the tainted water.

The Living Ship

A ship has been spotted off the coast which appears to be void of a crew, and able to transform itself to somewhat resemble a shark, it's massive mouth biting into other ships and dragging them under the waves.

Claire Colman is too afraid to go into the water now.

The Cloud

A massive gray stormcloud has appeared in the sky. Everyone's mood seems negatively affected by the cloud, and it's leading to trouble.

Brogan Wildfire hasn't stopped crying in a week.

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.

Olivier Sweeny and Fribbington Pierce claim to have seen the murder occur.

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.

Emily Amal is supposed to work on the ship during its maiden voyage.

Where is Your Rider?

A riderless horse, with tack and saddle, approaches you and will not leave you alone. When you climb onto its back, it gallops to the west.

Titus Winter has been missing in this region for days.

The Book of Many Stories

A thick tome is found deep in a dungeon. The pages are blank unless only one person is looking at them. Then it appears to tell a story which may have more to do with reality, than fiction.

Hana Haggard has heard of the book, and warns that no one should read it.

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.

Libby Bozier swears they always knew something was up.
