Plot Hooks

Locale

The Missing Kid

A boy has vanished. They know where he is, he's invisible.

Paddy Goldbreeze thinks the boy has been cursed.

A Stone's Throw

During his crowning ceremony, the Prince is struck in the head by a stone thrown from the crowd, his wound is great and falls into coma.

Fribbington Karim, the King's brother, immediately claims the throne as his nephew is no longer capable of ruling. Robert Hogan claims there is civil war on the horizon unless someone can heal the boy's wounds and prove the Uncle's involvement.

The Troll

A troll has been terrorizing nearby villages.

Joey Arrias saw the troll speaking to a man who looked like a wizard.

Execution

A crazed murderer has escaped and fled the night before his planned execution.

Jasper Moran thinks the man is innocent.

Into the Corn

A cornfield at a nearby farm lets people in, but does not let them out.

Christopher Mossrock's brother went into the corn last week, and hasn't been seen since.

Where is Your Rider?

A riderless horse, with tack and saddle, approaches you and will not leave you alone. When you climb onto its back, it gallops to the west.

Michelle Abbey has been missing in this region for days.

The Murder

A large murder of crows descends upon the city you are in. They watch you as you walk through the streets.

Bundringo Monroe says that crows are a bad omen. Sisco Blueflower hates birds.

The Shopping List

A travelling wizard needs helps gathering supplies for his potions.

Taylor Brocksby seems to think the wizard is a fake, and may be leading the party toward doom.

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.

Finley Portman 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. Paul Barlow 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.
