Plot Hooks

Locale

Execution

A crazed murderer has escaped and fled the night before his planned execution.

Riley Faelyn thinks the man is innocent.

Tax Time

A caravan of tax collectors from the nearby city was attacked and robbed on its way to town.

Charlie Autumn seems happy that the tax collectors lost everything.

The Door

You are awoken in the middle of the night by the Innkeeper. He is pale and shaking. He leads you to a large metal door in the basement. He swears on his life that this door was not there yesterday.

Maz Michaels has owned the inn for years and lived here all his life. He has never seen this door.

Fool's Gold

You are given a gold coin for your service to a strange old man. Everytime you open your coin purse, you find only that coin, even if you place other coins in with it.

Katinka Hemlock offers you a magic item for your service to him. Rose Ferrier warns that greed consumes all.

The Dead Beggars

The town's beggars are nowhere to be found. At least not until their shallow graves are discovered and exhumed.

Bundringo Norton thinks that less beggars in town is a good thing.

Forest Fire

A raging fire burns through the forest.

Elias Willow is worried they'll lose their home.

Land Shark

Sharks. With legs. Need we say more?

Killian Weston thinks a mad mage has created these abominations.

A Matter of Great Import

You have been tasked by a local council of halflings to solve a dispute before the different tribes go to war with one another. There was no clear winner in this year's brewing and weed growing competition, and it is up to you, as unbiased outsiders, to judge the competition.

Sawyer Faelyn invites you for tea, and speaks to you about how talented her son is at brewing and offers you a taste of his latest batch. Eden Winterheart offers to escort you around the village so that you might avoid the unsavoury areas which happen to be the breweries not run by his cousin.

The Elves have Gone

You arrive at the gates of an ancient elven city. The gates of the city are unbarred, and the streets empty. The city has been abandoned.

Eden Rana has been to this city before and found the elves to be very welcoming.
