Plot Hooks

Locale

The Usurper

A man has attempted to kill the king, failed, and then made a daring escape from the castle. It's likely he's going to try again.

Randle Loch saw Trixie Selwyn speaking with the man in the days leading to the attack.

Grandfather's Painting

A local lord is looking for a band of thieves to sneak into an aristocrats home and steal a painting that the lord's grandfather created decades ago.

Oisin Clarke thinks the aristocrat should just give the painting back to the lord.

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.

Hurricane

A massive hurricane has sprung up from nowhere.

Selene Cunningham heard Hailee Todd say that a druid is to blame.

The Hole

There's a hole in the middle of the forest that seems to move around at night. It's never in the same place twice, but sometimes there's music and voices coming out of it.

Nayeli Huon knows a man who went into the hole and never came out.

The Sheriff

The town sheriff offers to lead you through the mountain pass if you help him kill a beast which attacks his town's supply lines.

Finley Thom wants to help. but his town must be his priority. Bundringo Briggs doesn't think the sheriff is doing a good job and wants you to sabotage his next mission to prove his incompetence.

Sea You Later

The sea has dried up overnight.

Marcelin Proudfoot is wondering if it's their fault somehow.

The Ship

A wrecked warship has washed up on the beach. Problem is, it's a ship that hasn't even been launched yet from the nearby port.

Lisa Nighy is supposed to work on the ship during its maiden voyage.

The Druid

A druid named Malfurian is looking for help. A dark Druid called The Elder Servant is attempting to bring murderous beast gods into our world.

Ned Altharia thinks malfurian is crazy, while Kallum James is worried he might be onto something.
