Plot Hooks

Locale

The Hole

There's a hole in the middle of the forest that seems to move around at night. It's never in the same place twice, but sometimes there's music and voices coming out of it.

Sahin Huon knows a man who went into the hole and never came out.

The Invisible Elf

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

Landon Hickory thinks the invisible elf has been stealing things from people.

Zombie Trouble

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

Mikael Deverin thinks the gods are punishing everyone for their sins.

The Swarm

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

Ven Ashes is horribly afraid of insects.

Carrots

Some folks in town swear they've been attacked by carrots.

Patrick Teagrass says they survived an attack by biting the carrots back.

The Pyromancer

Everytime a young girl in town has a bad dream, a structure is lit on fire. She can't control it, but having her around is dangerous.

Michelle Mattell wants to banish the child, while Morwen Moran thinks maybe something worse is in order.

Water, water, everywhere

People are getting sick. The river water turned sour the week before. Someone needs to explore up the river way to find the problem.

Leif Duskfur claims a druid is meant to protect the northern forest and riverway. Julie Hickory has fallen deathly ill from drinking the tainted water.

Ale Troubles

The local barkeep needs his monthly shipment of ale, but the brewer is too scared to bring it because of reports of a nearby dragon.

Titus Dunstan says they saw the dragon just yesterday.

The Sage

A friend has come down with a strange illness. It is killing him, and your only lead to a cure is a powerful elven healer who lives deep in the western woods.

Clark Beech met with the elven sage last spring at a shrine in the mountains. Hart Greennose believes the sickness is a curse and must be broken through action, rather than salves and herbs.
