Plot Hooks

Locale

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.

The Pursuer

A hulking monster has been sent to hunt down members of a military squad which fought in the last great war.

Max Terryn and their partner Balian Smyth were both in the squad, and are looking to pay bodyguards to keep them safe.

The Woman in White

You are haunted by visions of a dead woman in white. She disappears when you walk in a particular direction, but otherwise she bars your way.

Raed Hamlin won't make eye contact with you. Lilith Deverin calls you 'haunted', and makes a warding sign.

Under the Sea

The citizens of a coastal town have been cursed by a witch. Now they've all turned into merfolk, and are forced to leave their homes to live in the ocean.

Riley Travis thinks the witch is going to ransack the town once everyone has been forced to abandon it.

The Resort

A mountain tourist town is empty. It was just filled to capacity the night before.

The only person in the town is Avital Wynne and they don't remember a thing.

Eruption

A dormant volcano is suddenly not as dormant as those who live nearby would like.

Blake Belet thinks magic may be the cause of the upcoming eruption, and not nature.

The New Jester

A funnyman was recently hired by a prince. Bad news is the funnyman turned out to be an evil funnyman, and he's killed the prince and gone on the run.

Sandra Orsan used to date the jester.

Grandfather's Painting

A local lord is looking for a band of thieves to sneak into an aristocrats home and steal a painting that the lord's grandfather created decades ago.

Christopher Clarke thinks the aristocrat should just give the painting back to the lord.

The Invisible Elf

After ingesting a strange plant, an elf has turned invisible.

Nayeli Dunstan thinks the invisible elf has been stealing things from people.
