Plot Hooks (Players Perspective - all DMs)
DM's please indicate any plot hooks which are deemed specific to only you and any available for other DM's to expand upon
Character
- Heron
- Where did Heron get his brands?
- Why did the dragon send Heron to the west?
- When an elf is born, the Keepers of the Past read the signs to determine the patron ancestor that will guide the elf through life.
- Did this happen?
- Would it have been the ancestor Heron is now honoring?
- Alex
- Why has the Silver Flame led her to HighBarrow?
- was it the silver flame or something else?
- Is she known by anyone around from the War?
- did she fight with them or against them?
- How do Shifters view her in general?
- Are there any specific shifters who harbour ill feelings towards her?
- What is Alex's thoughts on the fallen? in particular to looting them
- Evil: It is clear that a non repentant evil person is just that. They can be looted freely.
- Good: this is the grey area. One the one hand she, as a commander and battle leader, doesnt like good equipment going to waste. However looting the bodies is a desecration to the dead. Especially if such a fallen is a Silver Flame member.
- Saffron
- Why is Saffron around Highbarrow as a messenger – generally the gatekeepers use specialised divination magic to keep informed about what is happening in the world and around the seals?
- What might her mentor, the half-orc Grazzakht, be up to these days?
- Why is she working alone instead of joining or leading a group of hunters, which would be the normal role of a young inexperienced druid?
- What is the reaction of other druid sects, all of which have a role in this region, to her?
- Do Dale and Geraint previously know each other?
- Living Spells : What are they doing in the Forest? Where did they come from? What were they?
- What is the Compass and where was the dwarf going with it? Why didn't it work?
- Who is the Mindflayer?
- Why was it breaking the seal?
- Why didn't it finish the party off?
- The engravings to one side said that Dragons, Druids, and Giants built this seal
- Is this in fact possible?
- What was the Silver flame "priest" doing in the seal entrance?
- If the Compass detects the portals. Is there a distance limit? what happens if more than one portal opens?
- What are the Ashbound upto? Why are they kidnapping people? Are they targetting anyone specific?
- Who is the Bandit leader? Does he play part in anything happening in the region?
- Living Spells - where are these coming from if not Mournlands?
- What is the 7 pointed star - described by Aldern.
- What did he mean by it collected the sins of those marked?
- Where do the maps (dozen or so) take you? Do any of the routes still exist?
- Who is Xanesha, refered to briefly by Aldern, and a scroll message found amongst his things? Also who does she work for?
Resolved(?) - the following plots hooks may be resolved, (or maybe not)
- Spiders : the spiders attacked the village for food. Although defeated the question still stands as to why suddenly they chose to attack? Is it just a coincidence or more sinister?
- Seal of Xoriat:
- In the west we found an ancient stone structure inside which was a portal to Xoriat (according to Zeb). Is this simply what the dreams portented? This may simply be what the Chaos in the vision meant. As the portal was opening, if we didn't close it by end of day 3 it would be fully open and out would come the denizens of Xoriat.
- The body in the bonfire was that of a horrid rat thing. There was the remains of a charcoal maker burning in the entrance way to his house
- The Compass seems to open and close the Portals. It also seems to work by detecting active portals and pointing in their direction.
