Plot Hooks

Locale

It Awakens

There is an old, forgotten and sealed tomb that the local children like to visit. After the thaw of winter the tomb is left open and empty... broken from the inside.

Skylar Belet often reminds children not to go near the tomb. Ricky Hickory has seen the ghost of an old man near the tomb.

The Floating City

A large city has taken to the air overnight. The ground it rests on has pulled up from the rest of the earth and streaked skyward, leaving the city floating a mile above where it should be.

Jacek Monroe was overheard talking about the city floating a week before it actually did.

The Spread

A disease has been slowly spreading throughout the city. It appears to be undetected by Detect Poison or Disease. Half-Orcs are not affected by the disease.

Bella Hamilton thinks the orc tribes must have done this. Riley Clarke refuses to let you leave the city, to prevent any spread.

The Gate

Bandits have created a gate overnight and are insisting people pay a toll.

Hardwin Bigtooth thinks the village militia should just kill the bandits.

Shrunken

Everyone in town wakes up the size of bugs.

Kyle Zaki is thinking of ending it all.

Monkey Business

Everyone who owns a shop has been turned into a monkey.

Sawyer Boone is actually a pretty cute monkey.

The New Husband

A woman has learned her new husband is actually a ghost. He's not willing to get a divorce.

Alexandra Norton is the one who realized the guy was dead.

Tax Time

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

Erolith Alhara seems happy that the tax collectors lost everything.

Hurricane

A massive hurricane has sprung up from nowhere.

Llewelyn Rowe heard Eric Marshall say that a druid is to blame.
