Plot Hooks

Locale

Into the Unknown

You are being chased through the dungeon by a horde of monsters. You come to a final room with no exits but for one swirling red portal which leads to lands unknown.

Bernie Loch, your guide, does not wish to enter any unknown portals.

The Lost Treasure

A long forgotten treasure has become hot news again, when a map that supposedly leads to the treasure is found.

Sazi Oak is intent on finding the treasure first.

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.

Skylar Jones suggests you don't wear the helmet until you have it inspected by a wizard. Jasper Scott says a wizard will just try to take it, might as well wear it.

Execution

A crazed murderer has escaped and fled the night before his planned execution.

Magda Lighthands thinks the man is innocent.

The Closed Mine

A nearby mine has closed, laying off a hundred workers, who now have no idea how they're going to support themselves and their families.

Alyx Pierce thinks the owner of the mine is up to something shady.

Carrots

Some folks in town swear they've been attacked by carrots.

Finley Wazels says they survived an attack by biting the carrots back.

The Sinkhole

More than one farm has been swallowed up by a sinkhole in the area. Someone needs to find out what is going on.

It's believed by Ruby Winterheart that giant worms are to blame.

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.

Mace Spring 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. Ivor Hawkwing 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.

The Cursed Farm

Anyone who eats produce grown at the Big Steer Farm is transformed into raving lunatics intent on nothing but destruction and harm.

The farm was recently sold to Heidi Sorra.
