Plot Hooks

Locale

Creeping Forest

When you awaken, the village is surrounded on all sides by an unfamiliar forest.

Sarab Alard waits at the edge of the forest. Tamara Scott asks you to speak on behalf of the village

Slippery When Icy

Though the temperature has not changed, a thick layer of ice has covered everything within miles.

Gar Banes fell and broke their leg.

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.

Sazi Banes believe the treasure is real, while Virginia Fae does not.

Sleep

Everyone in the city has fallen asleep, and no one knows why or how.

Zie Marshall talks in their sleep.

The Secret Cave

The party is flagged down by a boy who is soaking wet. He leads the party to a nearby pond and dives under with them, leading everyone to an underground cave. The boy says his friend was taken while they were exploring.

The cave wall has three names carved into it. Lacey Altharia, Anika Greenflower, and Finley Quinn.

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 Maz Wilbur.

The Living Statue

A statue appears in a slightly different pose each morning.

Lionheart Mazdan swears they saw the statue walking around just past midnight when they were younger.

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.

Natalia Connington thinks the answer lies at the peak of a nearby mountain.

Princess Problems

A princess is said to disappear once a month, and no one can find her. It may be related to the bodies around town that spring up that same night.

Max Faelyn feels crazy for being the only person to realize the princess is a werewolf.
