Personal Hooks created based on cannon: 

• "Shattered Compact War" < this war is fictional lore for FF but its setting in Acheron is realistic to the setting and 
• Links to Shemeshka's reasoning for utilizing the modron/s; particularly its "legal purpose" is securely based in cannon historical links/patterns
• Radkos Ring chosen by Emily defined her background per real Ravnica + Radkos Cult background influences. Sootveil Masquerade groups however are fictional FF lore.
• Kayne as a member of the Fated 
• The fated returning of Duke Darkwood < very cannon character from the Faction War with ties to Ysgard 
• Relic machine-men being soul stuffed. Inspired by Karlack in BG3 and Modron histories, backed by the Book of Vile Darkness info

Personal fiction hooks: 

• Pale Devourer is an aspect of inspiration of the fey -- cannon inspiration: Unseelie Court and Wild Hunts in dnd lore in general 
• The possession of Zaga was a choice made previous to starting the Witchlight campaign
• The connection between Zaga and Grisland developed behind the scenes after Session 3; Old Grin becomes his personal challenger 
• Kerberos and Iggwilv/Tasha custom cannon stories < remain irrelevant to this story but honored as characters that exist in the world with us as played by those players 
• Zaga, Zeta, Zigga backgrounds 
• Zaga is not considered hag spawn to me or Bowden as this was never discovered/discussed with us in a game and therefore was/is not cannon. I did not make any assumptions that this "had to be" therefore I opt not to be and this is true for my character. << Especially after Session 9.
