Plot Hooks

Locale

The Heist

The rebels of a Kingdom ruled by a tyrant King has tasked you with stealing his prized Ioun Stone. They have arranged an invite to the King's annual Winter Ball. The rest is up to you.

Percival Hickory refuses to allow the King's rule to continue. Shangela Briggs offers to pay you to infiltrate the rebels and find their base.

Goblin Tower

A local wizard is requesting assistance. He is embarrassed to admit he lost control of his nearby wizard tower to a tribe of goblins and it is only a matter of time until they accidentally tear a hole in reality.

Friedrich Mervor has always felt the wizard was dangerous, and this just proves he is also dumb. Finley Enola claims to have seen glowing lights coming from the tower the previous night.

Everlasting Life

A mysterious stranger is willing to sell a potion that he says grants everlasting life, for the low low price of 1,000 gp.

Claudia Gellar is thinking about trying to raise the money needed.

Princess Problems

A princess is said to disappear once a month, and no one can find her. It may be related to the bodies around town that spring up that same night.

Emily Greenleaf feels crazy for being the only person to realize the princess is a werewolf.

The Missing Kid

A boy has vanished. They know where he is, he's invisible.

Mary Turner thinks the boy has been cursed.

Just a Dream

Every year on the night before your birthday, you dream that you are murdered by a man in black armour. You find yourself in an inn, the innkeeper is an old man. On the mantle is a wicked looking sword and familiar black armour...

Larson Darwin says the innkeeper used to be an infamous adventurer many decades before. Pallav Bonebreaker says the innkeeper's exploits are mostly unknown, as is where he got his armour.

Clocktower

A massive, miles high clocktower has sprung up in the middle of the continent. No one knows what awaits adventurers at the top.

Randle Duval was first into the clocktower, but has not come back.

The Coming Dark

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

Lacy Connington doesn't trust the elves.

The Experiment

While investigating a missing person you come across an abandoned lab. To your dismay, you find notes and diagrams making reference to you.

Andrew Ashfield heard screams coming from that part of the sewers at night. Kali Amal went missing last week, their mother is worried sick.
