Plot Hooks

Locale

Thirst Trap

No one in town can be sated. Water!

The only person immune is Jordan Browneye.

A New World

You are part of a fleet of colony ships. Struck by a storm the fleet was scattered, and your ship makes landing on an unknown shore. The other ships are lost and the inhabitants are unhappy that you are here.

Makayla Travis is concerned about the gathering storm clouds. Elana Loch expects the the land to be empty of intelligent beings.

Black Sky

All of the stars have vanished.

Rodney Clarke is determined to find out what happened. Sumesh Mervor thinks creatures from space ate the stars.

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.

Riley Hickory suggests you don't wear the helmet until you have it inspected by a wizard. Roxy Anwen says a wizard will just try to take it, might as well wear it.

Maniac Maze

More than one adventuring group has been lost in a nearby dungeon.

Felicity Wilton managed to return from the dungeon, and swears that the walls shift and move.

The Duel

Two men are going to duel to the death for the hand of a woman. Neither know the woman has secretly married the person she really loves.

Percival Kaye is the one who married the woman.

The Cloud

A massive gray stormcloud has appeared in the sky. Everyone's mood seems negatively affected by the cloud, and it's leading to trouble.

Sawyer Stoutheart hasn't stopped crying in a week.

The Ship

A wrecked warship has washed up on the beach. Problem is, it's a ship that hasn't even been launched yet from the nearby port.

Michelle Shadepelt is supposed to work on the ship during its maiden voyage.

The Ticking

A loud ticking, like from a clock, can be heard coming from the forest.

Gwendolyn Black wonders what will happen if the ticking stops.
