Random Plot Hook Generator
Quest and plot ideas for any adventure.
One morning, a bright light shines on the horizon as if a new dawn were breaking—only a hundred times brighter. A powerful breeze then sweeps across the entire country-side, blasting open doors and lasting more than a minute. The smell of jasmine lingers and then slowly fades away. A new object is now blazing upon the horizon: what appears to be a star, twinkling on the surface of the world. It’s bright enough to see during the day, and it provides a pale blue light all night long, illuminating the darkness yet not interfering with sleep.
OR
An attractive woman wearing her finest dress will flirt with the PCs at an inn. If she's rebuked she'll become more desperate, eventually breaking down if unsuccessful. She's from a small fishing village near a swamp that's unable to catch any fish, and was sent to 'buy' some heroes since the village has no money. The villagers are willing to give the woman to the party as reward for slaying the bullywugs that are eating all the fish.
OR
PCs are involved in an determined quest to achieve some threshold of power and/or fame for themselves. They may want to rise through the ranks of their local thieves guild, or raise the stature of their minor nobility household to where they can make a play for the throne.
If you're looking for a ready-made adventure, try one of the one shots.
