Plot Hooks

Locale

Slime

A large mound of slime is making its way through the dungeon, eating everything in its path.

Eden Lachlan barely escaped the dungeon with their life.

The Cheater

The townskeeper's wife has been seen out and about with another man. This is a problem, because the townskeeper is a crazy person.

Tom Weatherby thinks everyone needs to not say a thing to the townskeeper.

Buried Alive!

You awaken to the sound of a bell tolling. You are laying down in the dark, surrounded by stone. Understanding is quickly follow by panic as you have been entombed alive.

Teresa Bozier, the priest in this town, never warmed to you while you were in town. Amira Todd doesn't trust the priest.

Ice Storm

A severe winter storm has hit, and it's going to take skill and luck to survive the deep freeze.

Theodora White is worried that they won't make it through the storm.

A Fungus Among Us

Odd mushrooms have sprouted up in the forest. And on anyone who touches them. Those infected seem to be acting...strangely.

Ashet Dunstan has one of the mushrooms growing on their forehead.

The Runes

A new ancient dungeon has been discovered, and the walls are covered in carved runes from a dead language no one can speak or read. At least, until a small boy in a nearby town begins scratching the same runes into his own home.

Alan Jayid is afraid of the boy, and wonders if the right thing to do is to simply eliminate him.

Silent as the Grave

You notice there are no birds singing this morning. As you travel, you also notice there are no insects or animals of any kind in this part of the land.

Barnston Pierce, a druid, is gravely concerned about the forest along the northern road.

The Buried Fortress

A recent earthquake has uncovered what looks to be a massive fortress that was built underground.

Angar Scott thinks the fortress sank, Barty Watson thinks it was built underground.

Civil War

A massive city has taken arms up against one another, the sides naturally bisected by a river which runs through town.

Violet Massa was forced to kill their brother last night.
