Plot Hooks

Locale

Seeing Double

Anyone who touches a mysterious rock which fell from the sky separates into two people, one of which is good, the other evil.

Kylie Watson is thinking about touching the rock.

Under the Lake

A shining light has appeared out in the middle of the lake, under the water...

Jessica Lord has said they plan to swim out to the light and see what it is.

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.

Rowan Boone is the one who married the woman.

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.

Marilyn Greenflower tells you not to go down that road. Joey Jordan smiles slightly too wide when talking to you.

Anger

Everyone in town is JUST SO FREAKING MAD

Elise Travis is totally the most mad.

The Errant Wizard

A famous wizard was meant to meet you, but never arrived. Rumours has it that the wizard went to the southern coast in search of an artifact, and never returned.

Andrew Spike thinks you should go look for him. The wizard is well-known for absentmindedness, and pursuing his research despite dangers or other concerns

Hairless

The sky turned purple for a short moment, and everyone in town has suddenly lost their hair.

Bebe Reece thinks they look better bald.

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. Mary Arrias mistrusts the new guards.

Imposters

You arrive back at the local inn, but the look on the Innkeeper's face when you walk in the front door sets you back. "But... you all just went upstairs to rest, mere moments ago", he says shakily.

Jim Pierce won't look you in the eye. Maz Wolfbrother swears that you just spoke to him, and you looked angry
