Plot Hooks

Locale

Reflections

You make camp in an ancient elven ruin, and while exploring you find a great mirror that has been shattered. When you gaze into each piece of the mirror, you see yourself, and a shadow lurking behind.

The figure in the mirror gestures to you, begging for release.

Ghost Jail

The constable needs help figuring out why all of the prisoners he locks up die in the middle of the night. And why they all seem to be there still the next morning.

Maria Crump thinks the constable is a lot less innocent in the matter than he appears to be.

Night of the Tornadoes

Tornado after tornado pummels the city at night.

Lacy Brocksby believes the tornados are the work of a wizard.

Family Heirloom

You enter a city for the first time, and after a few hours wandering about you see a man carrying a particular sword. You recognize it, as it was your father's (or mother's) sword.

Melissa Harber has no idea who you are or what you are talking about. Nikolas Boone has seen that man before, wearing that sword.

Sadness

Everyone in town can't stop crying.

Natalie Bozier hasn't cried in years until now.

Wild Wind

The wind lately is so severe it's almost impossible to walk in.

Brom Blaze blew away yesterday.

Off Day!

There's nothing to do today! Absolutely nothing!

Liberty Greene said something, but you don't even need to listen!

Monster Maker

A man plans to exact revenge on all those who slighted him by creating a monster that will follow his every command.

Sazi Spall isn't too worried. The guy who wants to create the monster is a known failure.

The Cursed Necklace

A woman in town was gifted a necklace by a secret admirer. Now she's sick, and quickly heading toward death.

The only suspect is Luce Quinn.
