Plot Hooks

Locale

More Money!

Gold pieces have rained down from the sky over a small village. The new wealth has created some problems, to say the least.

Sahin Frost went from dirt poor to the richest in town.

Lambs to the Slaughter

An entire company of heroes was sent to deal with a rising evil to the east. Only one returns: she is blind and half-mad.

Petra Brocksby is scared for her brother, who was the scout of the party of heroes.

Sadness

Everyone in town can't stop crying.

Garrus Lucas hasn't cried in years until now.

Through the Fade

Whenever you sleep, you dream of being watched by an impossible creature with many eyes, torturing you for answers. After the latest dream you awaken with physical marks of your torture on your body.

Bella Hynes cannot identify where the wounds come from. Carys Blackve suggests you speak to the local seer.

The Coming Dark

A tribe of dark elves have been banished from their home, and are looking for a new one.

Amaya Duval doesn't trust the elves.

The Mirror

An old mirror is found in the abandoned tower of a wizard. While looking into the mirror, your reflection gives you a grave look and speaks: "I have come to warn you... something is coming and your world is not prepared."

Arianna Donovan says this wizard used to be a kind old man, but something changed in him making him paranoid. Nadeera Roderick is the grandchild of the late wizard.

The Constable

The local constable has locked himself, and hostages, in the city jail.

Marilyn Schmidt thinks the constable is having a psychotic break.

The Meat Eater

A little girl was found by a friendly circus troupe and brought with them to town. Well, that was the plan. She's the only one who actually made it to town, covered in the blood of the troup.

Amy Dempsy is sure the little girl ate the circus troupe.

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.

Ui Davis is supposed to work on the ship during its maiden voyage.
