Plot Hooks

Locale

Dragon King

An ancient dragon has eaten the rightful King and all of his heirs. He now lives in the throne room and is demanding to be called King.

Finley Terryn doesn't really care who the king is.

The Sage

A friend has come down with a strange illness. It is killing him, and your only lead to a cure is a powerful elven healer who lives deep in the western woods.

Cain Hale met with the elven sage last spring at a shrine in the mountains. Taylor Grail believes the sickness is a curse and must be broken through action, rather than salves and herbs.

The Ageless

A small group of travelling wanderers seem to not age.

Stella Hamilton met the group as a child, and they're all the same age as they were back then.

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 Kelsey Simpson.

The Manor

People have been vanishing in the woods nearby. There is only a rundown manor in the area.

Sisco Mervor claims there is a secret room in the basement of the manor.

The Troll

A troll has been terrorizing nearby villages.

Arabella Marshall saw the troll speaking to a man who looked like a wizard.

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.

Harold Adir refuses to meet face to face with you, but rather wears a veil. Rowan Norton is so angry he flies off the handle at any mention of beards.

Crossroads

While travelling, you pass a crossroad with a small cemetery. A few hours later, you pass by the same crossroads, although you have not changed your direction.

Emyr Black tells you not to go down that road. Eden Faelyn smiles slightly too wide when talking to you.

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.

Nena Hasan has heard whispers that the King himself has been brainwashed by Taylor Travis.
