Plot Hooks

Locale

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.

Maz Mervor tells you not to go down that road. Indra Reddy smiles slightly too wide when talking to you.

Eruption

A dormant volcano is suddenly not as dormant as those who live nearby would like.

Edgar Destrier thinks magic may be the cause of the upcoming eruption, and not nature.

The Double

Everyone saw the King die on the battlefield, and yet he just gave the victory speech a day later.

Sarab Whisperwind is wondering if it's magic, or just an actor.

The Tournament

A fighting tournament to the death is being held for the king's pleasure. The winner will receive anything he asks for from the King.

Fribbington Sybil is eager to sign up.

From the Clouds

A large gray cloud rolls across the land, and terrifying flying creatures descend from within, and snatch up people and carry them back up to the cloud, never to be seen again.

Nick Bowes's brother was taken off.

The Hairy King

The King has come down with a case of the ol' werewolf-itis. The Queen would prefer no one know.

Jasmine Harber has their suspicions that the King might be a werewolf.

Big Cows

Something has happened to a herd of cows and they've grown to giant level over night. The problem is, they're destroying the farms in the area.

Natalie Greenleaf barely escaped a giant cow stampede with their life.

A Father

A grieving man is willing to do anything to get his dead child back.

Nina Wrynn is worried the man is going to make a deal with a dark force.

Zombie Trouble

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

Raed Selwyn thinks the gods are punishing everyone for their sins.
