Plot Hooks

Locale

Grimoire Gone

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

Altes Hale is terrified that the Wizard's spell is in the world. Doran Grail may have information on a possible thief.

The Gambler

A man has been caught cheating at a card game in the tavern. He's being held in jail, but swears that he doesn't even know how to play the card game.

Weyland Scott seems to think the man may be possessed by... something.

The Ticking

A loud ticking, like from a clock, can be heard coming from the forest.

Doran Pierce wonders what will happen if the ticking stops.

The Dead Beggars

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

Lara Haggard thinks that less beggars in town is a good thing.

The Death Screech

A painful screech went up from a nearby mountain a few days ago. Most think the dragon is dead, but no one is willing to go and investigate.

Franklin Moran would go, but they have a bum leg, or so they claim.

Tourney Troubles

You are participating in the grand melee, the pinnacle competition during the Summer Tournament. In the midst of the combat, shouts ring out from the crowd. The tournament grounds are under attack!

Lilith Freeman, a local lord, and his knights were not invited to the tournament. Corinna White is a guard captain who partakes a bit heavily in drinking.

Black Sky

All of the stars have vanished.

Harold Schmidt is determined to find out what happened. Petra Mowbry thinks creatures from space ate the stars.

Your Past, Your Present

You enter a village and realize it looks exactly the same as the village you grew up in. In fact, you see a child who looks strikingly similar to you playing in the fields.

Sapphire Jayid does not recognize you. Sawyer Bryce does not trust outsiders.

Poisoned

The town magistrate has been poisoned and hangs on the cusp of death.

Olivier Ellis hated the magistrate.
