Plot Hooks

Locale

Hidden Gods

Various normal beings have transformed into gods. Some claim it's magic, some claim they were always gods in hiding.

Fribbington Reddy is upset they didn't turn into a god.

An Unlucky Number

A company of twelve warriors is searching for a thirteenth. It turns out you have been nominated.

One of the twelve, named Lance Nozzlenuck, seems to make many significant glances at Gawen Stonesworn.

Zoo Troubles!

A travelling zoo has lost a few of their animals. It's up to you to find them!

Barty Ashbringer saw one of the creatures run into the woods.

A Most Inconvenient Murder

You are on a ship crossing the sea. On board is your party, a nobleman and his wife, a known rake, a beautiful young debutante, the ship's captain, a well known adventurer and a famous detective. One morning, the nobleman is murdered and you were the last one to see him alive.

Gert Payne swears they saw you with the nobleman last night. Miles Blackaxe wishes to call everyone together to find the killer.

Lambs to the Slaughter

An entire company of heroes was sent to deal with a rising evil to the east. Only one returns: she is blind and half-mad.

Clio Frogsong is scared for her brother, who was the scout of the party of heroes.

Refuge from Fire

One morning a few dwarves come walking down from the mountains, seeking refuge in the city. The next day many more arrive. A fire demon has taken residence in their mountain halls.

Liara Nozzlenuck feels those dwarves can find somewhere else to find refuge. Kathryn Ward wants to help the dwarves.

Goblin Tower

A local wizard is requesting assistance. He is embarrassed to admit he lost control of his nearby wizard tower to a tribe of goblins and it is only a matter of time until they accidentally tear a hole in reality.

Lionheart Zaros has always felt the wizard was dangerous, and this just proves he is also dumb. Sarab Hynes claims to have seen glowing lights coming from the tower the previous night.

The Secret Cave

The party is flagged down by a boy who is soaking wet. He leads the party to a nearby pond and dives under with them, leading everyone to an underground cave. The boy says his friend was taken while they were exploring.

The cave wall has three names carved into it. Kael Sams, Bundringo Dresdain, and Marilyn Wolfbrother.

The Dragon Sword

A sword said to be able to easily kill dragons has been lost in a dungeon and must be recovered.

It's said that Dora Reedwater knows exactly where the dungeon is.
