Plot Hooks

Locale

Ale Troubles

The local barkeep needs his monthly shipment of ale, but the brewer is too scared to bring it because of reports of a nearby dragon.

Virginia Kastrix says they saw the dragon just yesterday.

The Big Wave

A tsunami is quickly approaching the coast. It will hit landfall within the hour!

Jon Inferno thinks everyone should try to evacuate.

Arachnophobia

Spiders are crawling up from below the city! The citizens are panicked.

Neil Leopardstar says "Spiders, why did it have to be spiders?"

The Last Message

A body is found with a note clutched in its hand. The party feels as though the note should be delivered to the dead man's wife.

Gwendolyn Connington is the only person who can decipher the code written hastily at the bottom of the note.

The Missing King

The King has vanished. No one knows where he is.

Elana Zantus was working with an underground group of rebels who wanted to depose the King.

Goblin Town

A town of peaceful goblin's needs help to protect themselves from humans intent on killing them all.

Paul Elonil doesn't believe the goblins are peaceful. Fletch Grief does, and is trying to stop the others from attacking.

Goblin Tower

A local wizard is requesting assistance. He is embarrassed to admit he lost control of his nearby wizard tower to a tribe of goblins and it is only a matter of time until they accidentally tear a hole in reality.

George Deadeye has always felt the wizard was dangerous, and this just proves he is also dumb. Timo Heartpound claims to have seen glowing lights coming from the tower the previous night.

The Hole

There's a hole in the middle of the forest that seems to move around at night. It's never in the same place twice, but sometimes there's music and voices coming out of it.

Blake Windflight knows a man who went into the hole and never came out.

Parasite

A small water based parasite has been attaching itself to people who swim in a nearby lake. Once attached, they can control the bodies of their hosts.

Crispin Spike is convinced they're the only person in town not possessed.
