Plot Hooks

Locale

An Unlucky Number

A company of twelve warriors is searching for a thirteenth. It turns out you have been nominated.

One of the twelve, named Mia Kensley, seems to make many significant glances at Morwen James.

The Duel

Two men are going to duel to the death for the hand of a woman. Neither know the woman has secretly married the person she really loves.

Jimbo Pierce is the one who married the woman.

Major Crimes

The dwarves of the southern hills have cut off all trade and closed their gates to any outsider without strict permission to enter. Someone has been shaving off their beards in the night, and they have asked your party to investigate.

Maverick Weston refuses to meet face to face with you, but rather wears a veil. Josh Gellar is so angry he flies off the handle at any mention of beards.

The Fog

A strange fog has rolled in to cover the landscape. Anyone who ventures into the fog, is never seen again.

There have been multiple people who claim to have seen someone, or something moving within the fog, including Charlie Rowe.

Ice Storm

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

Ceri Pierce is worried that they won't make it through the storm.

The Riders Come

Your party has been travelling for days through unknown territory. Someone spots a large host of riders off in the distance. The riders change direction and begin to ride directly at you.

Violet Oak warns that the riders to the west are not to be trusted. Maggie Watson once traded with the western folk, and found them to be reasonable.

More Money!

Gold pieces have rained down from the sky over a small village. The new wealth has created some problems, to say the least.

Lacey Alma went from dirt poor to the richest in town.

The Death Screech

A painful screech went up from a nearby mountain a few days ago. Most think the dragon is dead, but no one is willing to go and investigate.

Taylor Beech would go, but they have a bum leg, or so they claim.

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.

Amaya Leopardstar believes there is a druid who may be able to help. Sawyer Wilbur last saw the druid more than a month before when they purchased potions from the druid.
