Plot Hooks

Locale

Invaders!

A race of warriors, not known to these lands, has landed on the shores of the kingdom and displaced several villages and farms. They are not just raiders, and have already begun to establish settlement.

Kael Alma watched the invaders burn a village. Monica Reddy wants revenge and is gathering a host to attack the invaders.

The Singer

A woman has come to town who can put people in a trance by singing to them.

Lilith Anwen is under the singer's thrall.

The Swarm

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

Fiona Molyneaux is horribly afraid of insects.

The Ticking

A loud ticking, like from a clock, can be heard coming from the forest.

Rebecca Carnage wonders what will happen if the ticking stops.

Grandfather's Painting

A local lord is looking for a band of thieves to sneak into an aristocrats home and steal a painting that the lord's grandfather created decades ago.

Amelia Darwin thinks the aristocrat should just give the painting back to the lord.

The Doll

A living doll has been blamed for multiple murders that have taken place in town.

Doran Enola bought the doll as a gift.

Hairless

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

Sam Moonvalley thinks they look better bald.

The Siren's Call

You booked passage on a ship. Midway through the voyage, you awaken to find only you and your companions on board. The ship is anchored beside a small island and a Siren's song fills the air...

Maz Black warns of danger on the seas. Morwen Roderick believes she met a creature of the sea with an entrancing singing voice.

The Gate

Bandits have created a gate overnight and are insisting people pay a toll.

Salvatore Bonebreaker thinks the village militia should just kill the bandits.
