Plot Hooks

Locale

Missing Cat. Offering Reward

A local noble has entrusted you to find his poor missing cat, Tabitha. The cat is actually a tabaxi who has run away from her slave owner.

Finley Mervor needs someone to find his lovely cat, he speaks of the beauty of his can. Euphy Poots saw someone sneaking out of the manor at night and rushing out toward the nearby woods.

Payment Due

A mysterious man is in town claiming that he's owed money.

Ui Arrias admits that they do owe the man money, but they just don't have it. Misha Crump may be willing to loan them what they need.

The Kraken

A kraken has been attacking the town. The problem is, this is a farming town, hundreds of miles from the nearest coast.

Mercy Gleeson thinks the kraken can teleport.

The Helm of Slaughter

You find a beautifully crafted helmet. You put it on and after a few moments you hear a voice, "Yes... let the slaughter begin...". You are unable to remove the helmet.

Kelsey Stone suggests you don't wear the helmet until you have it inspected by a wizard. Vivian Pierce says a wizard will just try to take it, might as well wear it.

The Floating Gang

A group of bandits have set up a floating community just off the coast, where they terrorize passing ships.

Faed Pierce went out to join the gang.

The Red Star

A local doomsayer has been claiming the end is nigh. On the night of his 'coming doom', a red star streaks across the sigh and crashes into an old ruin in the nearby hills.

Isabella Enola it told by the gods when the world will end. Jax Erwin believes falling stars are natural phenomena and do not suggest the end of the world.

Map Quest

A map has been found, which leads to another map, and then another...

Simone Banes believes that eventually one of the dang maps will lead to treasure.

Grimoire Gone

A great wizard's spellbook has been stolen. The spellbook holds one of the rarest and most destructive spells.

Kashida Belet is terrified that the Wizard's spell is in the world. Violet Erwin may have information on a possible thief.
