An unearthly piano piece forces the investigators to confront feelings they have been veiling, and the cruel gaze of mirror magic brings even the best-hidden insecurities into the light. In a grey and dead dreamscape of an unfamiliar Berlin, a terrifying chase ensues.

Four years after The Devil Eats Flies. Our new investigators receive a letter from the Prussian library announcing  a robbery of their restricted titles. The lost volumes are in French, which makes them think of a certain club patron who hasn’t been seen lately…

In the gruesome finale of the scenario, the desperate students descend to the depths of the college, uncovering a burning truth about the former sanatorium and the ghosts who haunt it. In their bid to escape, the investigators meet some very strange gallery patrons who have an equally strange request. Yes it’s madness, but is it art?

The students find themselves hating the rich kids who got them into this mess. Maia has torn off much of her face, Bernie has been hassled by a ghost, and no one is having a good time. Will the answers await them in the library, or should some truths be left alone?

Our group of students continue exploring the so-called “haunted” college building. Choosing to let sleeping security guards lie and indulge their artistic curiosity, they sneak past and poke around in the back of the gallery. They soon come across some pieces that affect them more than art usually does…   You can buy this scenario to run for your friends!

Wonderful cultists,

The earliest part of 2024 has been a series of failed rolls that we’ve been continuing to try to Push, but unfortunately we’ve not always succeeded.

There have been some critical successes as well as fumbles, though. First of all, the inimitable Braydon has, through fel magicks, brought his own new  spawn into the universe. Join us in welcoming Reya (and admire her either on Discord or on our Patreon!)

We rejoin the investigators mid-ritual, chanting and gesticulating in a circle around Grossman’s vile journal, waiting for the dawn and hoping they’ll succeed in keeping his demonic spirit at bay - not to mention hoping that their anonymous tip was enough for the police to thwart the foreign minister’s assassination.

Our party moves forward towards the ritual with heavy hearts and second thoughts. A mysterious shadow standing by their car unites them with an old friend and ally, but our investigators have a lot of explaining to do. Can they rally themselves one last time and stop Grossman once and for all?

Desperate times call for desperate measures and the group consider an uneasy allyship to rid Germany of the Grossman demon once for all.  It becomes harder to know who they can trust, both from the people they’ve just met and from relationships they’ve relied on for a long time...

Hearing screams, Saydiina reaches for her bow and Moritz runs back from the bar, ready to swing a bottle of schnapps - but is there time? Max scuttles for his life away from the advancing form of the pus-dripping, spider-like monstrosity that was once a construction worker.
