Plot Hooks

Locale

Premonitions

A woman has begun seeing the future. These premonitions come with no warning, and cause her pain and stress when they do. Her latest premonition deals with the end of the world as we know it.

Matteus Zaki has known the woman with the visions since they were a child.

The Mad King

The King has declared that all of his subjects are evil and must be put to the sword. It seems as though his knights are perfectly willing to do this.

Roxy Freeman has heard whispers that the King himself has been brainwashed by Reiko Grail.

The Band

A travelling band is looking for help. They sold their souls to a demon in exchange for talent and fame, and now that demon has come to collect.

Petra Scott used to be in the band, but left because they refused to sign the deal.

Avalanche

An avalanche is moving swiftly down the mountain and will be here in moments.

Rowan Wright is sure everyone will die.

The Weird Relic

You reach into your bag of holding and draw out an unfamiliar relic. It is a small doll-like figure, carved from bone. "Help me..." it cries, and small beads of water begin to drip from its carved eyes.

Alyx Potter that bag of holding is ancient, must be one of the earliest of its kind,

They Come at Night

A roving band of creatures no one has ever seen before attacks towns and villages at night, killing all those within.

Tenjon Ironlatch thinks a militia should be formed to protect their hometown.

The Kraken

A kraken has been attacking the town. The problem is, this is a farming town, hundreds of miles from the nearest coast.

Sarab Hume thinks the kraken can teleport.

A Matter of Great Import

You have been tasked by a local council of halflings to solve a dispute before the different tribes go to war with one another. There was no clear winner in this year's brewing and weed growing competition, and it is up to you, as unbiased outsiders, to judge the competition.

Fletch Black invites you for tea, and speaks to you about how talented her son is at brewing and offers you a taste of his latest batch. Lydia Donovan offers to escort you around the village so that you might avoid the unsavoury areas which happen to be the breweries not run by his cousin.

What Lurks in the Fog?

The village is quick to welcome you to their food and fire. In the evening, a dense fog rolls in and surrounds the village. The villagers begin to don armour and weapons, and you hear the unearthly shriek echoes out of the fog.

Charlie Frost believes the fog creatures to be the dead, having risen from the barrow lands to the east. Deilos Crump apologizes for tricking you, but explains that they desperately need your help.
