Sleep

After a comet slams into the ground next to a town, anyone who goes to sleep in that town doesn't wake up. It landed four days ago, and there's very few people left.

Max Schmidt's sister is one of those still awake.

Melt

The weather has taken an inexplicable turn toward the hot, and the snow and ice are melting. So to, are those who live here in the tundra. A foul magic is at play, and it's a race against time to save everyone as they slowly turn to slush.

Jacques Hamilton thinks the answer lies at the peak of a nearby mountain.

A Matter of Great Import

You have been tasked by a local council of halflings to solve a dispute before the different tribes go to war with one another. There was no clear winner in this year's brewing and weed growing competition, and it is up to you, as unbiased outsiders, to judge the competition.

Kallum Vonner invites you for tea, and speaks to you about how talented her son is at brewing and offers you a taste of his latest batch. Ruther Ashfield offers to escort you around the village so that you might avoid the unsavoury areas which happen to be the breweries not run by his cousin.

Phoebe Lucas managed to return from the dungeon, and swears that the walls shift and move.

The Professionals

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

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