Plot Hooks

The Missing Letter

A letter proving a man's innocence has gone missing, a day before he is to be hung.

Kallum Mervor hates the man, and swore to Gwen Arrias that nothing would save him.

The Gambler

A man has been caught cheating at a card game in the tavern. He's being held in jail, but swears that he doesn't even know how to play the card game.

Sawyer Oak seems to think the man may be possessed by... something.

The Coming Dark

A tribe of dark elves have been banished from their home, and are looking for a new one.

Jayson Shimmer doesn't trust the elves.

The Missing Singer

"Brokenstring" Barnaby Button, a gnome musician has been playing the local tavern for a few months now. This morning he is missing, and there's signs of struggle in his room.

Lara Amal saw Max Norman having an argument with Barnaby last night.

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.

Sawyer Briggs believes there is a druid who may be able to help. Kiernan Loch last saw the druid more than a month before when they purchased potions from the druid.

God Fight!

Two gods have come to the mortal plain and are duking it out.

Ember Rucker is rooting for the more handsome god.

Heat Wave

A wall of flame a mile high and thirty miles long is spreading through the forest, destroying everything in its path.

Don Browneye thinks the wall of flame began near a wizard's tower home.

Double-Cross

You are hired by a well-to-do merchant to protect his warehouse. Suddenly the warehouse is swarming with guards and you are arrested for stealing the very artifact you were hired to protect.

Kimberly Hynes believes this easy money. Fribbington Mulgrew has a bad feeling about this.

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.

Celeste Dalton says Raven is standoffish and rude.
