To that end, the players need to know some of the things going on near Brimstone, rumors that have been heard, bounties and notices posted, strange locales hinted at etc. This is an available collection of those that have been found.

This is by no means exhaustive. Consult with Marshals for further possibilities, including ones you might have.
