Plot Hooks

Locale

The Ticking

A loud ticking, like from a clock, can be heard coming from the forest.

Timothy Pierce wonders what will happen if the ticking stops.

The Flood

A flood has covered hundreds of miles, leaving nothing but a small village that was built upon the top of a great hill. Settlers from flooded towns are seeking refuge, but there's not enough supplies to go around, and some refugees and plotting to take over.

Vitriak Fordragon thinks the village should close their doors to any and all refugees.

The Errant Wizard

A famous wizard was meant to meet you, but never arrived. Rumours has it that the wizard went to the southern coast in search of an artifact, and never returned.

Balian Aquilegia thinks you should go look for him. The wizard is well-known for absentmindedness, and pursuing his research despite dangers or other concerns

The Usurper

A man has attempted to kill the king, failed, and then made a daring escape from the castle. It's likely he's going to try again.

Dorian Greenflower saw Dag Crewe speaking with the man in the days leading to the attack.

A King's Favor

An archery contest is being held in the capital. The reward is a reasonable favour from the King.

Ria Wilton is a renowned archer and the expected winner of the. Elise Lesley can't wait for the festival markets to open.

The Lone Elf

An elf named Raven is the lone survivor of an attack by a goblin horde. Someone needs to convince her she shouldn't stay alone in the forest.

Kendra Gale says Raven is standoffish and rude.

The Ball

The King and Queen are throwing a ball. ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY

Brenda Wolfbrother might shave their legs.

The Kraken

A kraken has been attacking the town. The problem is, this is a farming town, hundreds of miles from the nearest coast.

Riley Cunningham thinks the kraken can teleport.

An Unlucky Number

A company of twelve warriors is searching for a thirteenth. It turns out you have been nominated.

One of the twelve, named Isis Pierce, seems to make many significant glances at Katarina Loch.
