Plot Hooks

Locale

False Idol

For generations, the people of this valley have given an offering to a local deity on a hill, and a good harvest and prosperity have followed. Recently, the locals erected a monument at the place of offering. Since then, their crops have begun to fail.

Qualen Pegg believes the offerings of food were wasteful, and that the monument is a more permanent showing of their devotion. Virginia Hynes fears the monument was a mistake, and now a larger show of devotion is necessary.

Snakes on a Plain

The plain has become overrun with snakes.

Vitriak Clarke hasn't been seen for days.

Double-Cross

You are hired by a well-to-do merchant to protect his warehouse. Suddenly the warehouse is swarming with guards and you are arrested for stealing the very artifact you were hired to protect.

Kashida Kensley believes this easy money. Daphne Silvergem has a bad feeling about this.

Gravy Robbers

A group of bandits have been breaking into taverns and stealing gravy.

Morgan Quinn can't blame them, gravy is delicious.

Mimic Mania

A dungeon is filled with nothing but mimics. That chest is a mimic, that torch is a mimic, the dungeons itself? Naaaah, couldn't be, right?

Celeste Rana was bitten by a mimic.

The Dragon Sword

A sword said to be able to easily kill dragons has been lost in a dungeon and must be recovered.

It's said that Mary Nighy knows exactly where the dungeon is.

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.

Bernie Vassan feels those dwarves can find somewhere else to find refuge. Lionheart Duval wants to help the dwarves.

The Great Tree

There is a magical tree which grows in the forest that has been targeted by drow.

The drow wish to remove the tree in an effort to weaken the beings who live in the forest. Muriel Marid needs help stopping them.

Everlasting Life

A mysterious stranger is willing to sell a potion that he says grants everlasting life, for the low low price of 1,000 gp.

Maz Mournhell is thinking about trying to raise the money needed.
