I wanted to take a two-week break from Divinity updates
to pitch my upcoming (and very first) module to my many readers. As you can see
from the wonderful cover picture by Luigi Castellani, it is a tribute to
classic adventure with a twist of political satire thrown in.
From the cover:
“‘Wyrd’ things are afoot in Walstock. This town might seem
like your ordinary, post-apocalyptic-now-turned-fantasy locale, but it is not!
Fell Cults have begun to take over and it is up to the brave adventurers to
stop one in particular: the Cult of the Shield Ghul.
But the ‘Wyrdness’ doesn’t end there. Though this adventure
can be used to facilitate your typical
wander-around-and-kill-everyone-to-take-their-stuff-type scenario, it also
includes a sinister (and frankly genius) plot, feuding factions, plenty of
hyphens, not to mention bizarre NPC’s and situations to either interact with or
stab to death.
Prepare yourself for an unusual and memorable gaming
experience. It could be just what the Barber-Dentist ordered!”
The party will essentially be tasked with apprehending a
certain eccentric individual, causing a cascade of events to unfold of both an
intriguing and bizarre nature. And as my playtesters found out, this isn’t your
normal dungeon delve-type adventure: one even suggested putting a warning on
the label.
