Plot Hooks

Locale

The Floor is Lava

A mad wizard has created a much to real game of the floor is lava for his grandson.

Chloe Mossrock burned their foot the other day.

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.

Ven Selentia thinks that an orc will never change their stripes.

Silent as the Grave

You notice there are no birds singing this morning. As you travel, you also notice there are no insects or animals of any kind in this part of the land.

Kandon Duval, a druid, is gravely concerned about the forest along the northern road.

Ale Troubles

The local barkeep needs his monthly shipment of ale, but the brewer is too scared to bring it because of reports of a nearby dragon.

Avital Bane says they saw the dragon just yesterday.

The Kraken

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

Roxy Donovan thinks the kraken can teleport.

Farmhouse Haunting

A young boy went missing years ago, and his spirit has been haunting his poor mother and father since. They need help finding what they need to do to get their son to pass on from this world, so they can try to find peace themselves.

Bernie Rucker thinks that the boy was kidnapped and killed, while Kallum Darwin believes the boy never left the farm...

The Ticking

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

Riley Turner wonders what will happen if the ticking stops.

It Writhes in the Deeps

A massive, terrifying sea monster washes up on shore next to the city with a massive bite taken out of its side. Over the next week many ships are lost at sea,

Eden Hawkwing believes there is always a bigger fish. Lena Roderick is a doomsayer who believes this is an omen of the end.

The Helm of Slaughter

You find a beautifully crafted helmet. You put it on and after a few moments you hear a voice, "Yes... let the slaughter begin...". You are unable to remove the helmet.

Jonas Lighthands suggests you don't wear the helmet until you have it inspected by a wizard. Akdir Roderick says a wizard will just try to take it, might as well wear it.
