Plot Hooks

Locale

The Painting

An old woman has died, and townsfolk are cleaning out her home when they find a strange and grotesque painting of a thin man covered in a black veil. The veil was removed, but the painting is stuck on the wall. That same night, someone was murdered.

Donal Hynes saw a thin man fleeing the scene of the crime.

Worms!

After the torrential rains lately, thousands, if not millions, of earthworms are overrunning town.

Ezekiel Clarke likes to fish, so they're not stressed about the worms.

Seven Heads of Fury

A hydra is constantly attacking the boats trying to make for port, just off the coast.

Stewert Filaen is willing to pay 500 gp to anyone who slays the beast.

Zealots

A new religion has swept the area, and those who believe are starting to round up and kill those who do not.

Vuska Zaros thinks that Emily Autumn is only pretending to be in the religion in order to survive.

The Resort

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

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

Everlasting Life

A mysterious stranger is willing to sell a potion that he says grants everlasting life, for the low low price of 1,000 gp.

Euphy Shad is thinking about trying to raise the money needed.

The Dead Beggars

The town's beggars are nowhere to be found. At least not until their shallow graves are discovered and exhumed.

Rolf Anwen thinks that less beggars in town is a good thing.

Zoo Troubles!

A travelling zoo has lost a few of their animals. It's up to you to find them!

Roan Terryn saw one of the creatures run into the woods.

The Floor is Lava
