Plot Hooks

Locale

The Mad King

The King has declared that all of his subjects are evil and must be put to the sword. It seems as though his knights are perfectly willing to do this.

Brian Tinkereye has heard whispers that the King himself has been brainwashed by Tamsin Nighy.

Hot Lava

A nearby volcano has erupted.

Lysander Duval knew they should have moved.

Ale Troubles

The local barkeep needs his monthly shipment of ale, but the brewer is too scared to bring it because of reports of a nearby dragon.

Maz Nozzlenuck says they saw the dragon just yesterday.

Water, water, everywhere

People are getting sick. The river water turned sour the week before. Someone needs to explore up the river way to find the problem.

Jago Kastrix claims a druid is meant to protect the northern forest and riverway. Emily Beech has fallen deathly ill from drinking the tainted water.

Off Day!

There's nothing to do today! Absolutely nothing!

Taylor Hamilton said something, but you don't even need to listen!

The Race

The Townmaster is putting on a horse race. The winner wins big.

Sapphire Hale has never ridden before, but is joining up all the same.

The Tournament

A fighting tournament to the death is being held for the king's pleasure. The winner will receive anything he asks for from the King.

Erica Bryce is eager to sign up.

The Professionals

A group of paid adventurers have gone missing while investigating a town of supposed werewolves.

Julia Carson quit their job to join the group. Their uncle is now paying for word of their disappearance.

Seeing Double

Anyone who touches a mysterious rock which fell from the sky separates into two people, one of which is good, the other evil.

Joey Hamid is thinking about touching the rock.
