Plot Hooks

Locale

An Evil Lurks

A long abandoned fortress to the north has been seen lit up at night by floating blue lights. A foul air permeates the nearby land.

Eden Elonil warns that odd fey creatures live in the region. Natalia Alard wouldn't go near the fortress if you paid them.

Allez Cuisine

A great beast has set itself outside the town you are in. It demands to be fed the most delicious food or it will east the townsfolk instead. You must prepare an elaborate five course meal using local ingredients.

Kylie Malfoy has tried to cook everything they could think of but the beast will not be satisfied. Fribbington Poots is prepared to attack the beast if need be, but is willing to wait until you make an attempt.

The Child

The king calls you to an audience. A young tiefling child is with him. He asks you to escort this child to a city far away, to ask no questions, and travel quietly and with haste. The trip is paid for, and you are offered a kingly sum as a reward. The King seems nervous.

Malcolm Lesley, an innkeeper, won't allow a tiefling under his roof. Otto Bowes saw unsavoury characters skulking about asking after a tiefling child.

The Invisible Elf

After ingesting a strange plant, an elf has turned invisible.

Jonas Winter thinks the invisible elf has been stealing things from people.

The Coming Dark

A tribe of dark elves have been banished from their home, and are looking for a new one.

Gowen White doesn't trust the elves.

Zealots

A new religion has swept the area, and those who believe are starting to round up and kill those who do not.

Nayeli Spall thinks that Monty AnaanShan is only pretending to be in the religion in order to survive.

The One Who Watches

Ever since you looted an ancient burial site, you have dreamt of a strange creature. You have now started seeing it while awake.

Angar Northrend cannot see the creature you describe. Tamsin Autumn has started to treat you strangely after you confide your fears.

The Buried Fortress

A recent earthquake has uncovered what looks to be a massive fortress that was built underground.

Guthrum Terryn thinks the fortress sank, Rowan Brightstar thinks it was built underground.

The Haunted Wagon

A ghostly wagon travels through town each night.

Max Potter seems to be interested on boarding the wagon next time they see it.
