Plot Hooks

Locale

It Descends Upon Us.

The winds have changed and risen to a gale, a freezing rain begins to fall and a road cuts across the harbour. You think you hear the beat of massive wings. A lightning strike reveals a massive beast soaring above the clouds.

Hamad Autumn believes dragons are just a myth. Omar Vinder is afraid of thunder.

The Floating City

A large city has taken to the air overnight. The ground it rests on has pulled up from the rest of the earth and streaked skyward, leaving the city floating a mile above where it should be.

Penelope Abasi was overheard talking about the city floating a week before it actually did.

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.

Sophie Fitzgerald has tried to cook everything they could think of but the beast will not be satisfied. Liberty Brightleaf is prepared to attack the beast if need be, but is willing to wait until you make an attempt.

The Shopping List

A travelling wizard needs helps gathering supplies for his potions.

Blake Lucas seems to think the wizard is a fake, and may be leading the party toward doom.

The Lost Tribe

Hundreds of years ago an Elvish tribe vanished from the forest in which they lived. Now, they're back, and no time at all has seemed to pass for them.

Mugheer Wolfbrother was the one who discovered the tribe.

Under the Lake

A shining light has appeared out in the middle of the lake, under the water...

Lariat Pierre-Dupois has said they plan to swim out to the light and see what it is.

The Spread

A disease has been slowly spreading throughout the city. It appears to be undetected by Detect Poison or Disease. Half-Orcs are not affected by the disease.

Clark Gleeson thinks the orc tribes must have done this. Ashet Joybrook refuses to let you leave the city, to prevent any spread.

Carrots

Some folks in town swear they've been attacked by carrots.

Kaith Clarke says they survived an attack by biting the carrots back.

Hurricane

A massive hurricane has sprung up from nowhere.

John Marshall heard Orren Lesley say that a druid is to blame.
