Fortune Cookie gaming hooks.

I had an intreresting round of Twitter last week with Geek’s Dream Girl.  She was talking about some of the fortunes she was reading in her fortune cookies.  Tounge planted firmly in cheek, I replied that if you added “in the Dungeon” you suddenly got great plot hooks.  Unconvinced?  I DLed these from the Free Fortune Cookie Quotes at Chinese Fortune Cookie.com.  Let’s see what we come up with.

Got one of your own? feel free to share.

A different sort of dungeon.  It’s a village where the PCs have every pleasure met, but at what cost?  Will they realize the danger before it’s too late?
