Plot Hooks

Locale

The Cursed Necklace

A woman in town was gifted a necklace by a secret admirer. Now she's sick, and quickly heading toward death.

The only suspect is Mushin Abasi.

The Swarm

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

Rowan Joygrove is horribly afraid of insects.

The Living Statue

A statue appears in a slightly different pose each morning.

Ned Zaros swears they saw the statue walking around just past midnight when they were younger.

Enemy of my Enemy

A warning cry echoes across the fields surrounding the village, looking toward the forest's edge you see a large band of orcs come charging out. Drawing your weapons, you realize the orcs are not attacking, they are fleeing from something else.

Sawyer Wanderhill believes the orcs are dangerous and should not be allowed into the town. Ewan Harber believes working with the orcs is best for all involved

Off Day!

There's nothing to do today! Absolutely nothing!

Rolf Mowbry said something, but you don't even need to listen!

The Surgeon

You spend a night drinking with the locals. You remember little from the night before when you awaken, strapped to an operating table.

Nina Jordan tells you to take care in the city at night, some folk have been going missing. Hawke Potter cannot find his mother.

The Hairy King

The King has come down with a case of the ol' werewolf-itis. The Queen would prefer no one know.

Ivan Crewe has their suspicions that the King might be a werewolf.

Worms!

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

Caroc Ferrier likes to fish, so they're not stressed about the worms.

A Creeping Corruption

A ranger has found a spreading disease deep in the forest which is killing all the vegetation and turning the animals mad. The spread will soon reach the outskirts of a local city and the farms that feed it.

Canton Simpson believes there is a druid who may be able to help. Nina Malfoy last saw the druid more than a month before when they purchased potions from the druid.
