Lawful evil wizards use legal loopholes to seize power in a small nation.

Half the townspeople want to hire the adventurers to run one of the people living in the village out of town.

The other half want him left as is.

Why do people want the person run out of town? They're incredibly annoying.

With this, we are back on schedule of having one plot hook a day. Thanks for your continued support. I am never moving again, this week has been terrible.

The party revivifies a slain adventurer they come across during an encounter only to find that he is extremely cross with them because when you revivify someone who has lived in accordance with the wishes of their deity, they are ripped out of utopia and sent back to the mortal plane.

They now have to redo all of the work they had to do to get back to paradise.

Two notes: Sorry I missed yesterday, I was moving and moving SUCKS. Today will be a two-fer. Secondly, yes, I did just listen to Dungeons and Daddies today.
