One More Day

Ghosts of the dead start walking the streets of the city, not hurting anyone, just going about their business. At the rising sun, they all walk back to the crypt.

Shirley Michaels saw his mother last night, she came to check on him but she died the winter before. Tatiana Greene saw a woman, not a ghost, walking the streets with the ghosts chanting to herself.

The Constable

The local constable has locked himself, and hostages, in the city jail.

Michael Mulgrew thinks the constable is having a psychotic break.

The Experiment

While investigating a missing person you come across an abandoned lab. To your dismay, you find notes and diagrams making reference to you.

Hendricks Sams heard screams coming from that part of the sewers at night. Bart Northrend went missing last week, their mother is worried sick.

Water, water, everywhere

A Blade without Peer

A legendary blacksmith has set up in a nearby village. She has heard that a star of metal fell in the nearby hills, and offers to make a weapon of magnificence for any who bring her the metal.

Riley Clarke can guide you to the location where the star fell. Sahin Frogsong noticed more goblins and orcs in the hills nearby to the fallen star.

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.

Sibylle Scourge that bag of holding is ancient, must be one of the earliest of its kind,

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.

Brom Alhara offers you a magic item for your service to him. Gavin Mervor warns that greed consumes all.

The Fight

A famous pugilist is looking for one last fight.

Brenda Hamilton is interested in taking up the challenge.
