Plot Hooks

Locale

Another Time

The whole city has been transported back in time, to an era that predates civilization.

Chandra Stormrage isn't leaving their home until things are back to normal.

Ambushed from Within

One of the wagons you are escorting suspiciously loses a wheel in the middle of a forest road. The other guards whisper to one another and ready their weapons.

The caravan master was convinced to hire these guards in the previous town. Vuska Wilton mistrusts the new guards.

Invaders!

A race of warriors, not known to these lands, has landed on the shores of the kingdom and displaced several villages and farms. They are not just raiders, and have already begun to establish settlement.

Rebecca Clarke watched the invaders burn a village. Ruby Sweeny wants revenge and is gathering a host to attack the invaders.

The Secret Cave

The party is flagged down by a boy who is soaking wet. He leads the party to a nearby pond and dives under with them, leading everyone to an underground cave. The boy says his friend was taken while they were exploring.

The cave wall has three names carved into it. Zoe Cruise, Friedrich Zantus, and Chandra Marshall.

The Orc Leader

Zurk is a half orc who wants to leave his orc clan life behind. But his father expects him to take over his role as chief.

Monty Ironbrow thinks that an orc will never change their stripes.

Clocktower

A massive, miles high clocktower has sprung up in the middle of the continent. No one knows what awaits adventurers at the top.

Killian Colman was first into the clocktower, but has not come back.

The Cursed Necklace

A woman in town was gifted a necklace by a secret admirer. Now she's sick, and quickly heading toward death.

The only suspect is Tavi Graves.

Shrunken

Everyone in town wakes up the size of bugs.

Adrian Proudfoot is thinking of ending it all.

Monster Maker

A man plans to exact revenge on all those who slighted him by creating a monster that will follow his every command.

Peter Sebastian isn't too worried. The guy who wants to create the monster is a known failure.
