Plot Hooks

Locale

The Red Star

A local doomsayer has been claiming the end is nigh. On the night of his 'coming doom', a red star streaks across the sigh and crashes into an old ruin in the nearby hills.

Zayne Pierce it told by the gods when the world will end. Mack Simpson believes falling stars are natural phenomena and do not suggest the end of the world.

Off Day!

There's nothing to do today! Absolutely nothing!

Lisa Selwyn said something, but you don't even need to listen!

The Unicorn

You are awoken from your rest while at camp to the sound of a horse. As you follow the sound you see the truth: it is a rare unicorn and it is injured.

Nina Marid believes a magical creature lives in the woods nearby. Rebecca Sybil's dream is to see a unicorn in person.

Race Against Time

The Townskeeper has been poisoned. The only cure is made by a strange old wizard who lives a days ride away.

Riley Hamlin is willing to let the party borrow horses.

Gravity

Gravity in the forest has changed. People are able to jump nearly a mile.

Sylvia Colman claims they saw someone float away.

Monster Maker

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

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

Undead Friends

Those who have died in the last decade have risen from the graves, most no more than skeletons. They're not evil though, they're looking to pick up their lives right where they left off.

Nina Wrynn is less than pleased to see their old romantic partner eight years after they died.

The Kraken

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

Charlie Summer thinks the kraken can teleport.

A Stone's Throw

During his crowning ceremony, the Prince is struck in the head by a stone thrown from the crowd, his wound is great and falls into coma.

Scarlett Weston, the King's brother, immediately claims the throne as his nephew is no longer capable of ruling. Akasha Rana claims there is civil war on the horizon unless someone can heal the boy's wounds and prove the Uncle's involvement.
