Plot Hooks

Locale

Ghost Jail

The constable needs help figuring out why all of the prisoners he locks up die in the middle of the night. And why they all seem to be there still the next morning.

Aviad Zantus thinks the constable is a lot less innocent in the matter than he appears to be.

The Floating City

A large city has taken to the air overnight. The ground it rests on has pulled up from the rest of the earth and streaked skyward, leaving the city floating a mile above where it should be.

Isabella Bradley was overheard talking about the city floating a week before it actually did.

The Swarm

A massive swarm of insects is moving from town to town, eating everything, and everyone, they can find.

Parker Rook is horribly afraid of insects.

Anger

Everyone in town is JUST SO FREAKING MAD

Charlie Pierce is totally the most mad.

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.

Euphy Michaels won't look you in the eye. Max Wynne swears that you just spoke to him, and you looked angry

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.

Miles Hawkwing heard screams coming from that part of the sewers at night. Pallav Moonstone went missing last week, their mother is worried sick.

Holy War

Two armies have begun a war with one another, but they don't know that they actually serve the same trickster god.

Abbas Duffield is die hard in their resolve that they worship the best god.

The Fight

A famous pugilist is looking for one last fight.

Jill Pierce is interested in taking up the challenge.

Tourney Troubles

You are participating in the grand melee, the pinnacle competition during the Summer Tournament. In the midst of the combat, shouts ring out from the crowd. The tournament grounds are under attack!

Laban Marshall, a local lord, and his knights were not invited to the tournament. Elias Hawkwing is a guard captain who partakes a bit heavily in drinking.
