Locale

The Professionals

A group of paid adventurers have gone missing while investigating a town of supposed werewolves.

Jacques Watson quit their job to join the group. Their uncle is now paying for word of their disappearance.

The Fugitive

An old man is said to be a war criminal in the last great war and has been hiding out and posing as the innkeep for the last fifty years. Now people are closing in, and he doesn't know what he should do.

Fletch Zaki thinks everyone should just leave the old guy alone.

The Relic

While perusing a local shop, you are drawn to an old, rusty sword. It feels familiar in your hand and when you turn it over you find your name engraved on the blade.

Selene Frost, the elderly shopkeeper, says the sword has been in this shop for as long as he can remember. Caitlin Monroe recognizes you, but cannot quite place where from.

Under Siege

A letter arrives from a nearby lesser noble. Their fort is under siege from an unknown enemy force attacking from the nearby forest. They request aid from such renowned adventurers.

Sibylle Rucker believes this attack happened because the fort is right on the edge of a magical forest. Angie Norman can guide you to your destination for a fee.

Goblin Tower

A local wizard is requesting assistance. He is embarrassed to admit he lost control of his nearby wizard tower to a tribe of goblins and it is only a matter of time until they accidentally tear a hole in reality.

Landon Lachlan has always felt the wizard was dangerous, and this just proves he is also dumb. Winona Orsan claims to have seen glowing lights coming from the tower the previous night.

Farmhouse Haunting

A young boy went missing years ago, and his spirit has been haunting his poor mother and father since. They need help finding what they need to do to get their son to pass on from this world, so they can try to find peace themselves.

Bernie Loch thinks that the boy was kidnapped and killed, while Cassius Rowe believes the boy never left the farm...

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

Caitlin Jones thinks this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to make it rich. Jody Mervor is concerned about what else might be guarding the horde...

Playing God

A man who recently lost his wife is said to be attempting to bring her back by putting her soul within a flesh golem.

Kerry Massa saw the widower digging up his wife's grave.
