Plot Hooks

Locale

Brewfest

The brew fest has arrived! But the caravan carrying the brew has not, and it has now been a week overdue.

Maz Miller ordered the brews from the nearby city weeks ago. Taylor Bryce is prepared to cancel the breakfast if the brews are not found.

Snakes on a Plain

The plain has become overrun with snakes.

Marilyn Marshall hasn't been seen for days.

The Swarm

A massive swarm of insects is moving from town to town, eating everything, and everyone, they can find.

Aela Mowbry is horribly afraid of insects.

The Spread

A disease has been slowly spreading throughout the city. It appears to be undetected by Detect Poison or Disease. Half-Orcs are not affected by the disease.

Finley Quinn thinks the orc tribes must have done this. Tamsin Shad refuses to let you leave the city, to prevent any spread.

Melt

The weather has taken an inexplicable turn toward the hot, and the snow and ice are melting. So to, are those who live here in the tundra. A foul magic is at play, and it's a race against time to save everyone as they slowly turn to slush.

Jericho Enola thinks the answer lies at the peak of a nearby mountain.

Through the Fade

Whenever you sleep, you dream of being watched by an impossible creature with many eyes, torturing you for answers. After the latest dream you awaken with physical marks of your torture on your body.

Hendricks Michaels cannot identify where the wounds come from. Eden Kastrix suggests you speak to the local seer.

The Treasure Map

Someone in town wants to hire adventurers to escort them to a location said to have a lot of treasure, at least based on this old map they found.

Maverick Ashig believe the treasure is real, while Marilyn Marshall does not.

Slime

A large mound of slime is making its way through the dungeon, eating everything in its path.

Hayden Silvermoon barely escaped the dungeon with their life.

The Stranger

The door to the tavern opens, and an old companion from years before enters. You are shocked, as you watched them die.

The companion does not remember you.
