When the GM announces that 'You walk across the bridge just like you'd walk across a bridge', perhaps not all is as it appears.

Being berated for allowing the death of a noble merchant in the town the previous night forces us to take an active approach to eliminating the Marrowbreaker threat in town instead of waiting for them to come to us. That means we need to think of a plan. Dexter comes up with the idea of […]

Having found out where the Marrowbreakers return after feasting on bones we are a step closer to finding their lair, and thus defeating them and stopping the murders. And because we believe the Red Hand Gang are responsible for loosing the creatures on the town, and that the cult are on the precipice of creating […]

We have infiltrated Copperdell, a mining town for Borat that has convicts for workers. It recently underwent a revolution, for some reasons that are known and other reasons that we are uncovering.

The pair were heard by the councillor's butler to have been in a heated argument together, which was worthy of investigation, if only to exclude him from being […]

Our investigations in to the brutal killing of the councillor begin at his home, where his body was found dead in his bed, his throat ripped out. It looks like some kind of beast bit the councillor's throat out violently. A keen search of the room also shows some claw marks leading from the bed […]
