Plot Hooks

Locale

The Missing Letter

A letter proving a man's innocence has gone missing, a day before he is to be hung.

Erolith Michaels hates the man, and swore to Helena Marshall that nothing would save him.

Ice Storm

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

Avery Huon is worried that they won't make it through the storm.

Imposters

You arrive back at the local inn, but the look on the Innkeeper's face when you walk in the front door sets you back. "But... you all just went upstairs to rest, mere moments ago", he says shakily.

Pascal Sybil won't look you in the eye. Timo Frost swears that you just spoke to him, and you looked angry

Clocktower

A massive, miles high clocktower has sprung up in the middle of the continent. No one knows what awaits adventurers at the top.

Mary Sams was first into the clocktower, but has not come back.

The Manor

People have been vanishing in the woods nearby. There is only a rundown manor in the area.

Mushin Maelor claims there is a secret room in the basement of the manor.

A Fungus Among Us

Odd mushrooms have sprouted up in the forest. And on anyone who touches them. Those infected seem to be acting...strangely.

Marina Altharia has one of the mushrooms growing on their forehead.

The Hole

There's a hole in the middle of the forest that seems to move around at night. It's never in the same place twice, but sometimes there's music and voices coming out of it.

Daphne Terryn knows a man who went into the hole and never came out.

The Surgeon

You spend a night drinking with the locals. You remember little from the night before when you awaken, strapped to an operating table.

Scarlett Rook tells you to take care in the city at night, some folk have been going missing. Emyr Weston cannot find his mother.

Heat Wave

A wall of flame a mile high and thirty miles long is spreading through the forest, destroying everything in its path.

Brian Molyneaux thinks the wall of flame began near a wizard's tower home.
