Plot Hooks

Locale

Zombie Trouble

A horde of undead are making their way for town. Nothing has been able to stand in their way.

Frederick Carter thinks the gods are punishing everyone for their sins.

The Chosen

A young boy is being sought out. It is believed he is the only one who can destroy a great evil.

Karth Ashbringer worked with a group to hide the boy so none could find him.

The Arrival

While resting under an ancient standing stone, you feel a sudden rumbling, and a spark of light. After it passes there is a bipedal being lying unconscious at the base of the stone wearing strange clothing. She is unconscious.

Calla Pierce has always believed the ancient way stones are more than just travel markers

Map Quest

A map has been found, which leads to another map, and then another...

Sawyer Hemlock believes that eventually one of the dang maps will lead to treasure.

The Missing King

The King has vanished. No one knows where he is.

Fiona Carter was working with an underground group of rebels who wanted to depose the King.

Princess Problems

A princess is said to disappear once a month, and no one can find her. It may be related to the bodies around town that spring up that same night.

Jim Summer feels crazy for being the only person to realize the princess is a werewolf.

An Evil Lurks

A long abandoned fortress to the north has been seen lit up at night by floating blue lights. A foul air permeates the nearby land.

Zayne Ghani warns that odd fey creatures live in the region. Kharda Zaros wouldn't go near the fortress if you paid them.

The Buried Giant

A large hill is gone as dawn breaks. What was thought to be a hill turned out to be a giant resting beneath the earth. He's awake now.

Esmeralda Faelyn has a fear of giants.

The Meat Eater

A little girl was found by a friendly circus troupe and brought with them to town. Well, that was the plan. She's the only one who actually made it to town, covered in the blood of the troup.

Sarab Loudlegs is sure the little girl ate the circus troupe.
