Plot Hooks

Monkey Business

Everyone who owns a shop has been turned into a monkey.

Akasha Jones is actually a pretty cute monkey.

It Writhes in the Deeps

A massive, terrifying sea monster washes up on shore next to the city with a massive bite taken out of its side. Over the next week many ships are lost at sea,

Max Hickory believes there is always a bigger fish. Muriel Beech is a doomsayer who believes this is an omen of the end.

A Most Inconvenient Murder

You are on a ship crossing the sea. On board is your party, a nobleman and his wife, a known rake, a beautiful young debutante, the ship's captain, a well known adventurer and a famous detective. One morning, the nobleman is murdered and you were the last one to see him alive.

Deilos Teagrass swears they saw you with the nobleman last night. Lincoln Cruise wishes to call everyone together to find the killer.

Clocktower

A massive, miles high clocktower has sprung up in the middle of the continent. No one knows what awaits adventurers at the top.

Brenda Ellis was first into the clocktower, but has not come back.

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.

Caroc Enola is sure the little girl ate the circus troupe.

Lambs to the Slaughter

An entire company of heroes was sent to deal with a rising evil to the east. Only one returns: she is blind and half-mad.

Kharda Masak is scared for her brother, who was the scout of the party of heroes.

The Menu

A tavern has become quite well known for having delicious food. Problem is, the food is made up of humanoids.

Bernie Jones bit into their meatloaf and pulled out a ring.

Princess Power

A princess is said to be the only one powerful enough to defeat a reborn necromancer.

Rey Wazels thinks that Simon Black is a servant of the necromancer.

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.

Alendra Tathdel warns that odd fey creatures live in the region. Arish Barlow wouldn't go near the fortress if you paid them.
