Plot Hooks

Locale

Ambushed from Within

One of the wagons you are escorting suspiciously loses a wheel in the middle of a forest road. The other guards whisper to one another and ready their weapons.

The caravan master was convinced to hire these guards in the previous town. Jakob Dunstan mistrusts the new guards.

Slime

A large mound of slime is making its way through the dungeon, eating everything in its path.

Parker Roderick barely escaped the dungeon with their life.

Tourney Troubles

You are participating in the grand melee, the pinnacle competition during the Summer Tournament. In the midst of the combat, shouts ring out from the crowd. The tournament grounds are under attack!

Sumesh Pierce, a local lord, and his knights were not invited to the tournament. Sawyer Huon is a guard captain who partakes a bit heavily in drinking.

Worms!

After the torrential rains lately, thousands, if not millions, of earthworms are overrunning town.

Sawyer Terryn likes to fish, so they're not stressed about the worms.

The Sinkhole

More than one farm has been swallowed up by a sinkhole in the area. Someone needs to find out what is going on.

It's believed by Sawyer Loch that giant worms are to blame.

Land Pirates

A group of pirates have created massive ships on wheels and prown the plains looking for victims and loot.

Orren Smyth is constructing their own land boat.

Under the Lake

A shining light has appeared out in the middle of the lake, under the water...

Marcus Dresdain has said they plan to swim out to the light and see what it is.

The Missing Singer

"Brokenstring" Barnaby Button, a gnome musician has been playing the local tavern for a few months now. This morning he is missing, and there's signs of struggle in his room.

Clark Bergel saw Sisco Everett having an argument with Barnaby last night.

Map Quest

A map has been found, which leads to another map, and then another...

Teyr Pegg believes that eventually one of the dang maps will lead to treasure.
