Plot Hooks

Locale

Water, water, everywhere

People are getting sick. The river water turned sour the week before. Someone needs to explore up the river way to find the problem.

Teresa Turner claims a druid is meant to protect the northern forest and riverway. Kylie Blight has fallen deathly ill from drinking the tainted water.

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 Jakob Ellis, seems to make many significant glances at Michael Jayid.

The Heartless

Undead minions have begun attacking travellers. The undead are all missing their hearts.

Fribbington Carson heard a story that you could control an undead fiend by taking their heart.

Tourney Troubles

You are participating in the grand melee, the pinnacle competition during the Summer Tournament. In the midst of the combat, shouts ring out from the crowd. The tournament grounds are under attack!

Arianna Willow, a local lord, and his knights were not invited to the tournament. Ven Lachlan is a guard captain who partakes a bit heavily in drinking.

Tax Time

A caravan of tax collectors from the nearby city was attacked and robbed on its way to town.

Maria Rowe seems happy that the tax collectors lost everything.

The Stranger

The door to the tavern opens, and an old companion from years before enters. You are shocked, as you watched them die.

The companion does not remember you.

The Cursed Farm

Anyone who eats produce grown at the Big Steer Farm is transformed into raving lunatics intent on nothing but destruction and harm.

The farm was recently sold to Kalak Northrend.

A Dire Path

The obvious path to your goal is blocked. There is a side route however, but it is far more dangerous.

Falk Lesley feels the path was blocked on purpose. Asa Hadwell is comfortable going underground.

The Treasure Map

Someone in town wants to hire adventurers to escort them to a location said to have a lot of treasure, at least based on this old map they found.

Maz Dalton believe the treasure is real, while Geoffrey Masak does not.
