Plot Hooks

Locale

Crossroads

While travelling, you pass a crossroad with a small cemetery. A few hours later, you pass by the same crossroads, although you have not changed your direction.

Kathryn Frost tells you not to go down that road. Finley Winterheart smiles slightly too wide when talking to you.

The Living Statue

A statue appears in a slightly different pose each morning.

Vetack Amal swears they saw the statue walking around just past midnight when they were younger.

Thirst Trap

No one in town can be sated. Water!

The only person immune is Femlin Roderick.

One with the Night

You are told to meet a potential quest-giver in a nearby cemetery. Upon arrival, it is clear this person is a vampire...

Marcel Simpson warns you that Enzo Malfoy, the quest giver, is strange and potentially dangerous.

The Contest

Two wizards have decided to see who is really the greater magic user. problem is they're doing this by seeing who can turn the most townsfolk into pigs.

Emily Beech was the first one to be changed into a pig.

A Creeping Corruption

A ranger has found a spreading disease deep in the forest which is killing all the vegetation and turning the animals mad. The spread will soon reach the outskirts of a local city and the farms that feed it.

Lena Monroe believes there is a druid who may be able to help. Kalak Poots last saw the druid more than a month before when they purchased potions from the druid.

Land Shark

Sharks. With legs. Need we say more?

Helsora Marid thinks a mad mage has created these abominations.

The Arrival

While resting under an ancient standing stone, you feel a sudden rumbling, and a spark of light. After it passes there is a bipedal being lying unconscious at the base of the stone wearing strange clothing. She is unconscious.

Dina Mulgrew has always believed the ancient way stones are more than just travel markers

The Actor

A travelling acting troupe has come to town. They are doing a mystery play, which seems to come true the very night the perform it.

Patrick Pegg thinks the lead actor, an elf named Garson, may be killing people.
