Plot Hooks

Locale

Eruption

A dormant volcano is suddenly not as dormant as those who live nearby would like.

Luna Echols thinks magic may be the cause of the upcoming eruption, and not nature.

Pirate Court

A fleet of pirates have descended upon the city and are putting a famous pirate captain on trial.

Barty Alma has gone to each day of the trial.

Clocktower

A massive, miles high clocktower has sprung up in the middle of the continent. No one knows what awaits adventurers at the top.

Joanna Hume was first into the clocktower, but has not come back.

Silence

Everyone who gets within fifty feet of a tree that seems to be burning, but never burns away loses their voice forever.

Guthrum Wood went to the tree as a child and hasn't spoken since.

A Persistent Chill

As spring arrives in the valley, the winter thaw never occurs. The river stays frozen and a chill wind blows in from the mountain pass in the north.

Malcolm Bryce fears they will run out of wood. Dov Gemleaf cannot get out onto the lake to fish.

Tiefling Trouble

A tiefling named Rokul is being targeted by a mysterious assassin.

Parker Ashfield seems to think the assassin is one of the Black Birds, a group of hired killers. Isabelle Greene doesn't think the Black Birds even exist.

Zombie Trouble

A horde of undead are making their way for town. Nothing has been able to stand in their way.

Friedrich Haggard thinks the gods are punishing everyone for their sins.

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.

Ahsoka Northrend is the only person who can decipher the code written hastily at the bottom of the note.

The Weird Relic

You reach into your bag of holding and draw out an unfamiliar relic. It is a small doll-like figure, carved from bone. "Help me..." it cries, and small beads of water begin to drip from its carved eyes.

Melissa Bladefist that bag of holding is ancient, must be one of the earliest of its kind,
