Plot Hooks

Locale

The Bloodening

A scream shatters the silence of the early morning. A woman stands beside town's well, horror-stricken, as blood drips from the water pail in her hands. There is a crack of thunder and the heavy clouds above release their deluge. The town's streets run red with blood.

Kashida Weston is losing their mind, the end has come. Mace Deadeye this must be punishment for allowing that warlock to practice his dark arts in town.

Avalanche

An avalanche is moving swiftly down the mountain and will be here in moments.

Mugheer Norman is sure everyone will die.

The Missing Mentor

You are to meet an old mentor from your past at an old ruin in the wilds. You arrive early and wait for them. You know them to be punctual, always. They never arrive.

Stella Pierce has never reached out to you like this, you fear their concerns are grave.

More Money!

Gold pieces have rained down from the sky over a small village. The new wealth has created some problems, to say the least.

Erica Wood went from dirt poor to the richest in town.

Monster Maker

A man plans to exact revenge on all those who slighted him by creating a monster that will follow his every command.

Michael Ashfield isn't too worried. The guy who wants to create the monster is a known failure.

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.

Erica Dalton suggests you don't wear the helmet until you have it inspected by a wizard. Marlon Thom says a wizard will just try to take it, might as well wear it.

The Missing Librarian

A scholar has been called away to explore a newly discovered ancient mine. He has not returned.

Felicity Dawnpelt is friends with the scholar, but Nena Bowes thinks they might have something to do with the scholar's disappearance.

Carrots

Some folks in town swear they've been attacked by carrots.

Isis Altharia says they survived an attack by biting the carrots back.

The Possessed

A coven of witches has seemingly called forth demons from the underworld to possess innocents in a nearby town.

It's said the witches want to kill Vivien Hillard.
