Plot Hooks

Locale

The Missing Kid

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

Asa Gellar thinks the boy has been cursed.

The Swarm

A massive swarm of insects is moving from town to town, eating everything, and everyone, they can find.

Kylie Duffield is horribly afraid of insects.

Fight Club

A secret underground fight club has sprung up.

Giselle Karim is mad because someone talked about it.

Thirst Trap

No one in town can be sated. Water!

The only person immune is Linda Scott.

The Weird Relic

You reach into your bag of holding and draw out an unfamiliar relic. It is a small doll-like figure, carved from bone. "Help me..." it cries, and small beads of water begin to drip from its carved eyes.

Gwendolyn Ashfield that bag of holding is ancient, must be one of the earliest of its kind,

The Kraken

A kraken has been attacking the town. The problem is, this is a farming town, hundreds of miles from the nearest coast.

Del White thinks the kraken can teleport.

Behind the Villain

A dark lord who has been waging war against the kingdom for years turns out to be a fake. The real villain is a weakling human with a grudge.

Robert Proudhands swears they always knew something was up.

The Big Wave

A tsunami is quickly approaching the coast. It will hit landfall within the hour!

Balur Grail thinks everyone should try to evacuate.

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.

Sumesh Boone knows a man who went into the hole and never came out.
