Plot Hooks

Locale

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.

Jill Altharia has always felt the wizard was dangerous, and this just proves he is also dumb. Liliana Korsk claims to have seen glowing lights coming from the tower the previous night.

An Unlucky Number

A company of twelve warriors is searching for a thirteenth. It turns out you have been nominated.

One of the twelve, named Shay Monroe, seems to make many significant glances at Sadie Winter.

Blinded

Half the population is blind suddenly.

Reiko Ferrier is thankful they can still see.

Family Heirloom

You enter a city for the first time, and after a few hours wandering about you see a man carrying a particular sword. You recognize it, as it was your father's (or mother's) sword.

Laikyn Bigtooth has no idea who you are or what you are talking about. Blake Ghani has seen that man before, wearing that sword.

The Missing Singer

"Brokenstring" Barnaby Button, a gnome musician has been playing the local tavern for a few months now. This morning he is missing, and there's signs of struggle in his room.

Arnold El-Hasan saw Klaudia Quaresh having an argument with Barnaby last night.

The Tunnels

The Queen snuck out of the castle in the dead of night. She was seen entering a nearby mine, and has been lost among the maze like tunnels. It's up to a party of adventurers to find her.

Magda Reece thinks the Queen may be under hypnosis.

Double-Cross

You are hired by a well-to-do merchant to protect his warehouse. Suddenly the warehouse is swarming with guards and you are arrested for stealing the very artifact you were hired to protect.

Olivier Enola believes this easy money. Ricon Lachlan has a bad feeling about this.

The Ageless

A small group of travelling wanderers seem to not age.

Luna Ferrier met the group as a child, and they're all the same age as they were back then.

What Now?

Another group of adventurers has killed the Big Bad.

Riley Karim thought your group would be the one to do it.
