Plot Hooks

Locale

Ghost Jail

The constable needs help figuring out why all of the prisoners he locks up die in the middle of the night. And why they all seem to be there still the next morning.

Seymor Amal thinks the constable is a lot less innocent in the matter than he appears to be.

Zombie Trouble

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

Ivana Black thinks the gods are punishing everyone for their sins.

The Gambler

A man has been caught cheating at a card game in the tavern. He's being held in jail, but swears that he doesn't even know how to play the card game.

Kasandra Sybil seems to think the man may be possessed by... something.

Reparations

Goblins have come to town looking for money and supplies to be donated for their years of suffering at the hands of the townspeople.

Rowan Breezehollow is on the goblin's side.

Horde of the Mountain King

You find a map at the bottom of a chest. It is written in Dwarvish and, if read, identifies a treasure horde hidden high in the mountains

Riley Underhill thinks this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to make it rich. Turok Winter is concerned about what else might be guarding the horde...

Behind the Villain

A dark lord who has been waging war against the kingdom for years turns out to be a fake. The real villain is a weakling human with a grudge.

Otto Enola swears they always knew something was up.

Holy War

Two armies have begun a war with one another, but they don't know that they actually serve the same trickster god.

Ivana Kensley is die hard in their resolve that they worship the best god.

The Wardstone

The town is protected by a magic crystal which is situated at its center. Last night, something stole the crystal. The town is now vulnerable to the evils which reside in the nearby lake and forests.

Jasper Turner saw a great winged demon descent from the mountains and take the gem. Sigrid Rowe fears the town is incapable of defending itself without the gem.

It Descends Upon Us.

The winds have changed and risen to a gale, a freezing rain begins to fall and a road cuts across the harbour. You think you hear the beat of massive wings. A lightning strike reveals a massive beast soaring above the clouds.

Desmond Massa believes dragons are just a myth. Nicholas Todd is afraid of thunder.
