Plot Hooks

Locale

Melt

The weather has taken an inexplicable turn toward the hot, and the snow and ice are melting. So to, are those who live here in the tundra. A foul magic is at play, and it's a race against time to save everyone as they slowly turn to slush.

Bernie Hynes thinks the answer lies at the peak of a nearby mountain.

Druid Trouble

All druids have suddenly turned evil.

A militia led by Sarab Barrow are going to hunt down druids.

A Town of Ghosts

A nearby town has gone dark. When investigated, it turns out everyone in the town is dead, but their spirits are trapped there.

Yasmeen Fitzgerald was the first to die. Homer Hamilton is the one who killed them.

Ambushed from Within

One of the wagons you are escorting suspiciously loses a wheel in the middle of a forest road. The other guards whisper to one another and ready their weapons.

The caravan master was convinced to hire these guards in the previous town. Mervyn Ashfield mistrusts the new guards.

The Missing Librarian

A scholar has been called away to explore a newly discovered ancient mine. He has not returned.

Aric Jones is friends with the scholar, but Riley Rucker thinks they might have something to do with the scholar's disappearance.

Ice Storm

A severe winter storm has hit, and it's going to take skill and luck to survive the deep freeze.

Olivier Greene is worried that they won't make it through the storm.

Under the Sea

The citizens of a coastal town have been cursed by a witch. Now they've all turned into merfolk, and are forced to leave their homes to live in the ocean.

Charlie Malfoy thinks the witch is going to ransack the town once everyone has been forced to abandon it.

Maniac Maze

More than one adventuring group has been lost in a nearby dungeon.

Vetack Pegg managed to return from the dungeon, and swears that the walls shift and move.

Zombie Trouble

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

Asa Crump thinks the gods are punishing everyone for their sins.
