After playing a lot of Pathfinder I came back to 5e and Forgotten realms only to find that the plot hooks for 5e FR are a bit lacking for me in the Sword Coast and the North. After reading the swag twice, the only adventure ideas I could decipher from the book are:
This list is not really creative compared to the Cheliaxian plots, the barbarian lands plagued by robots, the test of starstone, the youth potion, the phaorah who is paying adventurers to clear the pyramids of his country from his mummy ancestors and the two (or three) separate living gods in Pathfinder. I am in the process of stealing some of these ideas for my FR game but:
Does anyone have any adventure ideas which did not appear in published adventures for far reaching / political / epic or interesting adventures especially for North of FR and sword coast?
Surprisingly I find a lot more potential plots for other regions in the world including an ongoing campaign where the characters are trying to forge a military alliance between the dales of Dalelands to protect them against Sembia.
- The citaldels of the dwarves are becoming silent
- Rebuilding of Waterdeep and(or?) Neverwinter
- The mayor of a town I did not really care about possibly killed someone
- Some islanders who were protecting Waterdeep lost their jobs
- It is still difficult to enter into Candlekeep
- The zentarim are planning something (again!) or not
- Elturgard/Najara has a load of plot hooks from attacking or infiltrating yuan-ti to the aging leader, possibly vampires still around somewhere, even a possible Prince Arthas scenario (warcraft3/wow)
- Housing problems in Evereska
- Uthgardt barbarians killing everyone who enters their land
- The warlock's crypt is a big dungeon
- The Arcane Brotherhood and the drows are always plotting
