Plot Hooks

Locale

The Resort

A mountain tourist town is empty. It was just filled to capacity the night before.

The only person in the town is Cyntia Carson and they don't remember a thing.

Parasite

A small water based parasite has been attaching itself to people who swim in a nearby lake. Once attached, they can control the bodies of their hosts.

Dub Spall is convinced they're the only person in town not possessed.

Missing Cat. Offering Reward

A local noble has entrusted you to find his poor missing cat, Tabitha. The cat is actually a tabaxi who has run away from her slave owner.

Sumesh Harber needs someone to find his lovely cat, he speaks of the beauty of his can. Zie Dresdain saw someone sneaking out of the manor at night and rushing out toward the nearby woods.

The Haunted Bay

Ghosts are said to haunt a bay that was once home to a busy port. Some say the ghosts are from a sunken ship that crashed 100 years ago.

Marge Mervor thinks that the ghosts aren't real, and someone is playing a trick on the community.

Zombie Trouble

A horde of undead are making their way for town. Nothing has been able to stand in their way.

Sahin Mervor thinks the gods are punishing everyone for their sins.

Brewfest

The brew fest has arrived! But the caravan carrying the brew has not, and it has now been a week overdue.

Riley Crewe ordered the brews from the nearby city weeks ago. Justin Mazdan is prepared to cancel the breakfast if the brews are not found.

Anger

Everyone in town is JUST SO FREAKING MAD

Mica Todd is totally the most mad.

Avalanche

An avalanche is moving swiftly down the mountain and will be here in moments.

Fribbington Black is sure everyone will die.

Through the Fade

Whenever you sleep, you dream of being watched by an impossible creature with many eyes, torturing you for answers. After the latest dream you awaken with physical marks of your torture on your body.

Gavril James cannot identify where the wounds come from. Haryk Abbey suggests you speak to the local seer.
