Plot Hooks

Locale

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 Cora Pierre-Dupois.

Ghost Tower

A stone tower has appeared nearby. A ring of specters is keeping everyone out.

Carly El-Hasan tried to rush past the ghosts but was thrown back fifty feet.

Cannibals

There's a small town near the edge of the map which is full of humanoids who eat the flesh of other humanoids.

Tanis Frost is searching for their brother, who went missing near the village.

Seven Heads of Fury

A hydra is constantly attacking the boats trying to make for port, just off the coast.

Sapphire Moonblossom is willing to pay 500 gp to anyone who slays the beast.

Kids

A town has been taken over by children, and all the adults have been slain.

Jasper Fae managed to escape from the town.

Lambs to the Slaughter

An entire company of heroes was sent to deal with a rising evil to the east. Only one returns: she is blind and half-mad.

Zyra Brown is scared for her brother, who was the scout of the party of heroes.

Body Swap

Anyone who gets too close to a mysterious castle that's risen up overnight swaps bodies with whoever is closest to them at the moment.

Dov Crewe swapped bodies with Sigrid Pierce and they both kind of like it.

Through the Fade

Whenever you sleep, you dream of being watched by an impossible creature with many eyes, torturing you for answers. After the latest dream you awaken with physical marks of your torture on your body.

Claudia Adir cannot identify where the wounds come from. Bernie Fae suggests you speak to the local seer.

The Professionals

A group of paid adventurers have gone missing while investigating a town of supposed werewolves.

Hector Greentree quit their job to join the group. Their uncle is now paying for word of their disappearance.
