Plot Hooks

Locale

The Elves have Gone

You arrive at the gates of an ancient elven city. The gates of the city are unbarred, and the streets empty. The city has been abandoned.

Akasha Pegg has been to this city before and found the elves to be very welcoming.

Arm Wrestling Champion

An arm wrestling league is looking to crown it's latest champion.

Tenjon Mulgrew thinks they have what it takes to win.

Ghost Horse

A hauntingly scary phantom horse is frightening people at night.

Illian Gale is wondering if the horse is a warning.

Slippery When Icy

Though the temperature has not changed, a thick layer of ice has covered everything within miles.

Derrick James fell and broke their leg.

Left for Dead

A man was attacked and left for dead on the side of the road. Now he's looking for help when it comes to getting revenge.

Jonas AnaanShan is letting the man stay at their house.

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.

Sarab Dalton believes a magical creature lives in the woods nearby. Emil Ashfield's dream is to see a unicorn in person.

Shrunken

Everyone in town wakes up the size of bugs.

Gavin Everett is thinking of ending it all.

It Needs to Feed

A panicked farmer shows you to his henhouse. Inside you find a formless blob-like creature with long tendrils. There are no hens, and the creature appears to slowly be gaining in size.

Maria Hemlock has never seen a creature like this. Karakta Morningstar used to be an adventurer and remembers a gelatinous cube or ooze being similar

A Matter of Great Import

You have been tasked by a local council of halflings to solve a dispute before the different tribes go to war with one another. There was no clear winner in this year's brewing and weed growing competition, and it is up to you, as unbiased outsiders, to judge the competition.

Jasper Duval invites you for tea, and speaks to you about how talented her son is at brewing and offers you a taste of his latest batch. Lorelei Rana offers to escort you around the village so that you might avoid the unsavoury areas which happen to be the breweries not run by his cousin.
