Plot Hooks

Locale

Eruption

A dormant volcano is suddenly not as dormant as those who live nearby would like.

Dustin Enola thinks magic may be the cause of the upcoming eruption, and not nature.

Monster Maker

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

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

The Murder

A large murder of crows descends upon the city you are in. They watch you as you walk through the streets.

Roxy Roderick says that crows are a bad omen. Aric Weston hates birds.

Sleep

Everyone in the city has fallen asleep, and no one knows why or how.

Runar Kensley talks in their sleep.

The Ball

The King and Queen are throwing a ball. ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY

Jonas Carson might shave their legs.

They Come at Night

A roving band of creatures no one has ever seen before attacks towns and villages at night, killing all those within.

Jax Bradley thinks a militia should be formed to protect their hometown.

The Tunnels

The Queen snuck out of the castle in the dead of night. She was seen entering a nearby mine, and has been lost among the maze like tunnels. It's up to a party of adventurers to find her.

Luna Crewe thinks the Queen may be under hypnosis.

A Town of Ghosts

A nearby town has gone dark. When investigated, it turns out everyone in the town is dead, but their spirits are trapped there.

Paul Alhara was the first to die. Kyle Sorra is the one who killed them.

One with the Night

You are told to meet a potential quest-giver in a nearby cemetery. Upon arrival, it is clear this person is a vampire...
