Plot Hooks

Locale

Parasite

A small water based parasite has been attaching itself to people who swim in a nearby lake. Once attached, they can control the bodies of their hosts.

Fletcher Duffield is convinced they're the only person in town not possessed.

The Shop

A traveling salesman claims he can get anything for anyone. For a price. He's set up shop just outside of town.

Percival Brightstar is wondering if the salesman can get his hands on a magical necklace.

The Druid

A druid named Malfurian is looking for help. A dark Druid called The Elder Servant is attempting to bring murderous beast gods into our world.

Percival Huon thinks malfurian is crazy, while Enzo Wynne is worried he might be onto something.

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.

Sahin Greene cannot identify where the wounds come from. Winona Bryce suggests you speak to the local seer.

The Mirror

An old mirror is found in the abandoned tower of a wizard. While looking into the mirror, your reflection gives you a grave look and speaks: "I have come to warn you... something is coming and your world is not prepared."

Kasim Skullcrusher says this wizard used to be a kind old man, but something changed in him making him paranoid. Jaden Carson is the grandchild of the late wizard.

The Professionals

A group of paid adventurers have gone missing while investigating a town of supposed werewolves.

Illian Bryce quit their job to join the group. Their uncle is now paying for word of their disappearance.

A Royal Summons

A messenger arrives. The land is under attack, and the Queen has called upon your to help defend her lands.

The messenger is impatient. Elise Frogsong is worried you're in over your head.

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.

Natalia Marshall has always believed the ancient way stones are more than just travel markers

The Double

Everyone saw the King die on the battlefield, and yet he just gave the victory speech a day later.

Arish Alhara is wondering if it's magic, or just an actor.
