Plot Hooks

Locale

Seven Heads of Fury

A hydra is constantly attacking the boats trying to make for port, just off the coast.

Clio Dustpelt is willing to pay 500 gp to anyone who slays the beast.

The Wendigo

People are going missing, and a wendigo just might be to blame.

Diego Norton is leaving town.

Horde of the Mountain King

You find a map at the bottom of a chest. It is written in Dwarvish and, if read, identifies a treasure horde hidden high in the mountains

Avery Kelshall thinks this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to make it rich. Natalie Weatherby is concerned about what else might be guarding the horde...

The Living Statue

A statue appears in a slightly different pose each morning.

Rowan Loudbelly swears they saw the statue walking around just past midnight when they were younger.

The Floating City

A large city has taken to the air overnight. The ground it rests on has pulled up from the rest of the earth and streaked skyward, leaving the city floating a mile above where it should be.

Ashet Emberfoot was overheard talking about the city floating a week before it actually did.

It Awakens

There is an old, forgotten and sealed tomb that the local children like to visit. After the thaw of winter the tomb is left open and empty... broken from the inside.

Corinna Jayid often reminds children not to go near the tomb. Enzo Cunningham has seen the ghost of an old man near the tomb.

The Vanished

On the last day of each month, someone in the city vanishes. It's been going on for almost a decade, but the city is so wealthy and safe that few who live there are concerned, and simply hope they are not the ones that end u missing.

When Clark Amal was a child, their father went missing.

The Dead Beggars

The town's beggars are nowhere to be found. At least not until their shallow graves are discovered and exhumed.

Nadeera Duval thinks that less beggars in town is a good thing.

Ice Storm

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

Akasha Bryce is worried that they won't make it through the storm.
