Plot Hooks

Locale

The Hairy King

The King has come down with a case of the ol' werewolf-itis. The Queen would prefer no one know.

Fletch Sweeny has their suspicions that the King might be a werewolf.

Sadness

Everyone in town can't stop crying.

Olivier Barlow hasn't cried in years until now.

The Wendigo

People are going missing, and a wendigo just might be to blame.

Sawyer Pyre is leaving town.

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.

Sazi Gellar cannot identify where the wounds come from. Magda Adir suggests you speak to the local seer.

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.

Sawyer Bladefist has one of the mushrooms growing on their forehead.

The Helm of Slaughter

You find a beautifully crafted helmet. You put it on and after a few moments you hear a voice, "Yes... let the slaughter begin...". You are unable to remove the helmet.

Cain Marid suggests you don't wear the helmet until you have it inspected by a wizard. Malcolm Abasi says a wizard will just try to take it, might as well wear it.

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.

River Barlow believes a magical creature lives in the woods nearby. Bedelia Hynes's dream is to see a unicorn in person.

Invaders!

A race of warriors, not known to these lands, has landed on the shores of the kingdom and displaced several villages and farms. They are not just raiders, and have already begun to establish settlement.

Andrew Travis watched the invaders burn a village. Elliot Fordragon wants revenge and is gathering a host to attack the invaders.

Poisoned

The town magistrate has been poisoned and hangs on the cusp of death.

Faed Ferncloud hated the magistrate.
