Plot Hooks

Locale

The Pyromancer

Everytime a young girl in town has a bad dream, a structure is lit on fire. She can't control it, but having her around is dangerous.

Kerry Carter wants to banish the child, while Elliot Fae thinks maybe something worse is in order.

The Yeti

A mysterious beast with white hair has been seen nearby. It's roars can be heard at night.

Jon Barrow is going to hunt the animal down.

The Missing Letter

A letter proving a man's innocence has gone missing, a day before he is to be hung.

Hamad Lord hates the man, and swore to Olivier Mowbry that nothing would save him.

A Town of Ghosts

A nearby town has gone dark. When investigated, it turns out everyone in the town is dead, but their spirits are trapped there.

Katinka Zantus was the first to die. Sawyer Moran is the one who killed them.

Thirst Trap

No one in town can be sated. Water!

The only person immune is Cloee Duffield.

The Gambler

A man has been caught cheating at a card game in the tavern. He's being held in jail, but swears that he doesn't even know how to play the card game.

Caitlin Pierce seems to think the man may be possessed by... something.

Refuge from Fire

One morning a few dwarves come walking down from the mountains, seeking refuge in the city. The next day many more arrive. A fire demon has taken residence in their mountain halls.

Torek Frost feels those dwarves can find somewhere else to find refuge. Jody Barlow wants to help the dwarves.

The Riders Come

Your party has been travelling for days through unknown territory. Someone spots a large host of riders off in the distance. The riders change direction and begin to ride directly at you.

Kiran Barrow warns that the riders to the west are not to be trusted. Alaya Loch once traded with the western folk, and found them to be reasonable.

Fool's Gold

You are given a gold coin for your service to a strange old man. Everytime you open your coin purse, you find only that coin, even if you place other coins in with it.

Cassius Echols offers you a magic item for your service to him. Lionheart Honeyfur warns that greed consumes all.
