Prophetic Lineage Hook

  1. Visions as Nightmares: The visions disturb your sleep, and you're always tired until this is resolved.

    • Initial Task: Seek out a healer or a shaman who can brew a potion or conduct a ritual that stabilizes your sleep patterns, but requires a special ingredient or task from you in return.
  2. Cryptic Message: A stranger approaches you with a message that corresponds with your visions.

    • Initial Task: Follow a set of instructions detailed in the cryptic message, which will lead you to a secluded place where a trial or revelation awaits. Prepare yourself adequately, as you have no idea what to expect.
  3. Public Omen: A celestial event visible to all triggers the start of your visions.

    • Initial Task: Engage in public discourse—be it at a forum, religious gathering, or town meeting—to discuss the omen's significance and glean more context surrounding its relation to your visions.
  4. Family Discord: Relatives challenge the legitimacy of your claim to the family's prophetic lineage. They insist on a test to prove your worth.

    • Initial Task: Enter a family shrine to retrieve an artifact that only the true prophetic heir can touch.
  5. Eclipsed Sky: A rare celestial event occurs, coinciding with a legend that suggests the rise of a new prophetic voice in the family.

  6. Unearthed Relic: A family artifact resurfaces after being lost for decades, perhaps even centuries. According to lore, it's to be wielded only by the family member destined to bear the weight of prophecy.

    • Initial Task: Solve the riddles or complete the challenges to unlock the artifact's hidden power or messages.
