So, we have lots of good and bad things that are happening all around, and I would really like to incorporate more into the Roulette threads.

So, if you have a plot, or an idea that could involve and affect other people in some way, I WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT!!

Srsly!! And it doesn't have to specifically be Grey Tower centered!

Ei:
- A nearby dispute between two farming occurs and your are asked to intervene
- You character discovers a faceless silver dollar. What do you do with it?

etc

I'm not really sure how this would work, but maybe:

-A nearby farmer is complaining of wolves taking off with his livestock; you've been asked to remedy the situation
-A wedding is stalled when the groom goes missing on the day of: figure out where he's gone and why

Not sure if those are good plots to run with.

Some more serious ones might be:

-A merchant in Arad Doman claims to have found an ancient artifact from the Age of Legends, but he won't give it to the Grey Tower; find a way to obtain the artifact (negotiating, stealing, etc.)
-Several Trolloc warbands have uncharacteristically joined together in an assault and have attacked Kandor's Ravinda, Manala, and Canluum villages; help push the horde back before all of Kandor is overrun! The final frontier is the capital Chachin? (or a made up village if that works better)

I like those!
I am hoping for some advanced, medium and easy ideas, and possibly ones that might play into an over-arching plot.. if you're up for that kind of crazy.

1. A man/woman is accused of being a channeler in Amadacia, where he/she will be burned at the stake if not retrieved.
2. A ‘mad’ man is brought to the Grey Tower in chains from the Blight Border. They say that when he speaks coherently he speaks of events that haven’t happened yet, but always come true. As the guards are explaining this, the man speaks of something pertaining to your character(s).
3. A feral man with yellow eyes is found running naked in the wilds and it’s your job to bring him back so one of the Wolfbrother’s in the Tower can help try and restore his balance.
4. An accident in a channeling class finds you in a Warder Bond with another character. Now you both have to explain to the MoNSters that you didn’t do it intentionally and that it was an accident. Alternately, you can maintain the Bond and try to hide it from the rest of the Tower.
5. You find an odd object while doing a gardening chore/punishment in the Gardens. You decide to do some research on it in the Tower Library and find out that it’s a (insert answer here). What do you want to do with it?
6. The Queen of Saldaea has called for a summit of all three towers. You’ve been chosen to go and represent the Grey Tower.
