Adventure Hooks:
The following adventure hooks provide the characters with specific reasons for checking out the herb-
alist shop.

Plague of the Lavender Mist– Strange lavender colored mist has been spotted in the wooded areas
near the village. Unfortunate individuals that find their selves wandering into the mist have fallen
gravely ill. The herbalist reports that the mist is actually the spores of a strange mildew and needs the
characters to assist in the location of a rare herb to treat the sick.

Path of the Orchid Witch– The orchid witch, a powerful spell caster that ravaged the countryside a
decade ago, has been spotted in the area. A member of the local militia/guard claims to have spotted
her walking up to the herbalist shop and passing straight through the door, leaving a path of orchid
petals behind. Superstitious villagers believe that the herbalist (or other family member) may actually
be the orchid witch in disguise. The adventurers must try to figure out if the herbalist really is the or-
chid witch and if so, how to stop her. If the herbalist is not, the heroes may be needed to protect the
herbalist from the advance of an angry mob (without using lethal force on the mob).

A Dire Need for Wolfsbane– Werewolves have been reported to exist in area and the rulers of the
land have requested the herbalist’s assistance in gathering wolfbane. The herbalist knows of an aban-
doned orchard where sufficient quantities of wolfsbane may be gathered but the place is ridden with a
variety of other dangerous creatures. The herbalist has requested the services of the heroes to help
provide protection during the gathering of the wolfsbane.
