Plot Hooks

Locale

Night of the Tornadoes

Tornado after tornado pummels the city at night.

Brenda Donovan believes the tornados are the work of a wizard.

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.

Charlie Fae claims a druid is meant to protect the northern forest and riverway. Rowan Arrias has fallen deathly ill from drinking the tainted water.

The Missing Kid

A boy has vanished. They know where he is, he's invisible.

Jordan Pierce thinks the boy has been cursed.

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.

Meara Vonner feels those dwarves can find somewhere else to find refuge. Mia Darwin wants to help the dwarves.

Sleep

After a comet slams into the ground next to a town, anyone who goes to sleep in that town doesn't wake up. It landed four days ago, and there's very few people left.

Lilith Shimmer's sister is one of those still awake.

The Wendigo

People are going missing, and a wendigo just might be to blame.

Frank Barrow is leaving town.

The Double

Everyone saw the King die on the battlefield, and yet he just gave the victory speech a day later.

Blake Sams is wondering if it's magic, or just an actor.

Where is Your Rider?

A riderless horse, with tack and saddle, approaches you and will not leave you alone. When you climb onto its back, it gallops to the west.

Laikyn Faelyn has been missing in this region for days.

The Stranger

The door to the tavern opens, and an old companion from years before enters. You are shocked, as you watched them die.

The companion does not remember you.
