Plot Hooks

Locale

Under the Lake

A shining light has appeared out in the middle of the lake, under the water...

Zaeim Scott has said they plan to swim out to the light and see what it is.

The Orc Leader

Zurk is a half orc who wants to leave his orc clan life behind. But his father expects him to take over his role as chief.

Tiffany Vonner thinks that an orc will never change their stripes.

The Chosen

A young boy is being sought out. It is believed he is the only one who can destroy a great evil.

Canton Treespeaker worked with a group to hide the boy so none could find him.

The Riders Come

Your party has been travelling for days through unknown territory. Someone spots a large host of riders off in the distance. The riders change direction and begin to ride directly at you.

Elias Hasan warns that the riders to the west are not to be trusted. Sahin Enola once traded with the western folk, and found them to be reasonable.

Imposters

You arrive back at the local inn, but the look on the Innkeeper's face when you walk in the front door sets you back. "But... you all just went upstairs to rest, mere moments ago", he says shakily.

Ben Selentia won't look you in the eye. Morwen Mulgrew swears that you just spoke to him, and you looked angry

Ice Storm

A severe winter storm has hit, and it's going to take skill and luck to survive the deep freeze.

Lacy Hickory is worried that they won't make it through the storm.

The Heartless

Undead minions have begun attacking travellers. The undead are all missing their hearts.

Dana Stonesworn heard a story that you could control an undead fiend by taking their heart.

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.

Lars Selwyn has heard of the book, and warns that no one should read it.

Hairless

The sky turned purple for a short moment, and everyone in town has suddenly lost their hair.

Kandon Barrow thinks they look better bald.
