the Misanthropists

Designed for use with Shadowdark RPG. Made in August 2024 for Baron de Ropp's Weird Tales Game Jam.

Progress and industrialization are the crazes of the time and Mr. Gerald Tailor longs to stitch more than clothing. In this adventure, he has already begun shady experiments in stitching the essences of creatures together. His equally unsavory partner in this endeavor wields a forbidden technique indistinguishble from dark magic. Together, they are the Misanthropists.

The characters are already on a path of destruction. They just don’t know it yet.  As they uncover the circumstances, will they selflessly attempt to foil the villains’ plans, or will rage and spite turn them into villains themselves? Let the new Genetic Fortitude mechanic and the agency of the players decide!
