Something rots in the heart of Somerset… and where old traditions met new, death is the only outcome…

*

Deep within the picturesque, albeit enigmatic landscape of Somerset, a sinister secret festers, a malevolent force that knows no compromise. This is a place where ancient customs converge with the encroaching tides of modernity, and the only inevitable consequence is a grim descent into death and madness.

The Stench of an Open Grave is not just an adventure; it’s an invitation to delve headfirst into the heart of darkness that dwells within the Cthulhu Dark Ages 3rd Edition. But it’s not just for players; it’s a godsend for Keepers too. Those who relish the art of weaving a dark, yet elegantly straightforward mystery will should find this adventure an invaluable addition to their arsenal, a canvas upon which you can paint your own tales of cosmic horror.

And the cherry on top? It generously equips you with everything you need to draw players into this grim narrative. With three pregenerated characters, each carefully tailored to fit seamlessly into the storyline, it’s the ideal recipe for an immersive and spine-tingling experience. In this world where the ancient and the otherworldly converge. This adventure may be the passport to not just witnessing, but living the horrors that await.

Should you buy this scenario? Well, let the author, Marcus Bone explain.

This scenario was created with the express purpose of introducing new players to Cthulhu Dark Ages and as such presents what I hope is a simple, almost linear, mystery for them to explore. With this audience in mind, ‘Stench’ attempts to downplay the more fantastical elements that can sometimes seep into Dark Ages games and instead tries to bring to life the culture and experience of living in the Early Middle Ages. Of course, this may mean more experienced role-players (especially those well versed in the Dark Ages) might find the story a little too simplistic for their tastes, but nevertheless I would still like to think that you ‘hold in your hand’ a well thought out, fun scenario; one that can give a good night or two’s entertainment for any fan of the Cthulhu Mythos.
