Plot Hooks

Locale

The Floating Gang

A group of bandits have set up a floating community just off the coast, where they terrorize passing ships.

Blake Laroque went out to join the gang.

Domestication or Slavery?

A group of wood elves have come into town during the night and freed all of the animals from captivity, refusing to return them. The townsfolk are prepared to go to war over this.

Jevon Ghani will not free their animals, their survival relies on it.

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.

Virginia Deakin feels those dwarves can find somewhere else to find refuge. Eden Banes wants to help the dwarves.

Under the Lake

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

Amelia Marid has said they plan to swim out to the light and see what it is.

The New God

A woman in town believes she can become the god of the sea if she drowns herself, and then kills the actual god of the sea.

Katrina Anwen is rooting for the woman.

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.

Altes Roderick wants to banish the child, while Jax Frost thinks maybe something worse is in order.

Practical Research

A famous adventure writer wishes to be brought on a quest with your party. You are to show her the ropes and keep her safe. Her publisher is not happy about it.

Cassius Marid, the writer's agent, threatens you with legal action if any harm comes to the writer. Frances Turner is the writer's #1 fan and offers to pay for the expedition if you let them come along.

The Hairy King

The King has come down with a case of the ol' werewolf-itis. The Queen would prefer no one know.

Blake Cruise has their suspicions that the King might be a werewolf.

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.

Tenjon Crewe has always felt the wizard was dangerous, and this just proves he is also dumb. Lara Ashig claims to have seen glowing lights coming from the tower the previous night.
