Plot Hooks

Locale

Ghost Tower

A stone tower has appeared nearby. A ring of specters is keeping everyone out.

Sawyer Pegg tried to rush past the ghosts but was thrown back fifty feet.

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.

Eden Wilbur suggests you don't wear the helmet until you have it inspected by a wizard. Brom Dempsy says a wizard will just try to take it, might as well wear it.

Another Time

The whole city has been transported back in time, to an era that predates civilization.

Derrick Mervor isn't leaving their home until things are back to normal.

Lambs to the Slaughter

An entire company of heroes was sent to deal with a rising evil to the east. Only one returns: she is blind and half-mad.

Landon Moran is scared for her brother, who was the scout of the party of heroes.

The Talking Birds

Birds have begun talking in common. And they're all rude.

Doran Ferrier got into a fist fight with a mouthy raven.

Assassination

The prince has uncovered a plot to assassinate his father, and needs help getting to the bottom of it.

Lance Terryn has learned that a lot of the King's own men are in on the plot, and that's why the prince is quietly looking for help.

The Lone Elf

An elf named Raven is the lone survivor of an attack by a goblin horde. Someone needs to convince her she shouldn't stay alone in the forest.

Sam Tathdel says Raven is standoffish and rude.

The Vanished

On the last day of each month, someone in the city vanishes. It's been going on for almost a decade, but the city is so wealthy and safe that few who live there are concerned, and simply hope they are not the ones that end u missing.

When Frederick Terryn was a child, their father went missing.

The Storm

A massive storm has been raging for a month. There is no let up, and it appears to stretch across the continent.

Stella Stormrage seems to think the storm is magical in origin while Winona Amal thinks it's the work of the gods.
