Beach guy could be bought by Lucien to work in the household. Meets young daughter. Proceed to fall in love. Daughter gets kidnapped. Beach Guy steps up and offers to help the search.

We have a plot!

Question: Wealthy or Aristocratic?

That works suprisingly well. I didn't think of just hiring folks.
Our poorer characters, like Beach Guy and the Goblin Footpad can't hire people to help, though. They'd need to actually make friends first, which is hard for a slave and goblin to do (casual racism FTW, it seems).
I'm just trying to get everyone to think of their motivation, what quests they'd be involved in and why and maybe even get a few plot ideas kicking around. Our slave, for example, doesn't seem to have many oppertunities to get involved as a slave, so maybe he could escape and appeal to our 'good guys' for help, whilst his owner pays the less benevolent characters to look for him. I dunno, I'm toying with ideas here.

Without an overarching threat, however, we make our own quests. Which is good, but its hard for others to get involved in quests that don't affect them.
I.e. If Rosa gets kidnapped by a group of local criminals, does anyone else really have any motivation to look for her but Lucien and the Watch?

Really? With the squirrels around?

Lucien: I own all the slaves. And gnomes. And squirrels.

And Lucien, being the rich, upper-class toff he is, can buy them all.

Buy two and you get a gnome and a squirrel!
