The RPG Fiends

The torture chamber of Ho Fang's compound offers no safety, only borrowed time. With a severely injured woman on their backs and a sorcerer who walks through walls likely planning his return, the investigators have painted themselves into a bloody corner. Beyond the door lies a labyrinth of stone, razor wire, and fanatical guards armed with sickles. As the party prepares to fight their way to the front gate, they are about to learn that escaping the French Concession is only half the battle—because the shadows they cast in London have finally stretched all the way to Shanghai.Actual play of Call of Cthulhu's Masks of Nyarlathotep by Chaosium Inc.View the mysteries and secrets as the investigators uncover them at:https://www.legendkeeper.com/app/clt34sk1p13j80jkt4y02fyzgMusic and Sound by Syrinscape.https://syrinscape.com/?RPGFIENDSBecause Epic Games Need Epic SoundComplete list of credits ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://syrinscape.com/attributions/?id=1449&id=1448&id=153&id=4107&id=1443&id=527&id=1853&id=103&id=6099&id=6100&id=6101&id=6325&id=8229&id=8283&id=8282&id=8261&id=8262&id=10242&id=10243&id=10245&id=10340&id=10348&id=15204&id=15456&id=15459&id=15460&id=15461&id=34660&id=35954&id=36943&id=36952&id=36951&id=43006&id=43007&id=43008&id=43009&id=43010&id=65910&id=57929&id=65912&id=59082&id=68729

The sitting room of Ho Fang's luxurious compound has become a slaughterhouse, and the deafening echo of a gunshot has just sealed the investigators' fate. With a powerful sorcerer vanished into smoke and the entire estate undoubtedly rushing toward the noise, there is no going back. Stripping the black and gold robes from the fallen guards, the party must don the very skin of their enemies to push deeper into the labyrinth. They came for a captive woman whose time has almost run out, but what waits for them behind the hidden doors of the French Concession might demand a toll in blood they cannot afford to pay.

Two days of tense recovery in the Palatial Gardens hotel have left the investigators bruised, bleeding, and jumping at shadows. But the quiet is finally shattered by a knock at the door and the arrival of a man who has been dead for five years. Jack Brady, the missing muscle of the doomed Carlyle Expedition, has stepped out of the Shanghai fog with a glass of old whiskey and a story that spans the globe. As he prepares to pull back the curtain on ancient pyramids, broken billionaires, and a synchronized conspiracy, the investigators are about to learn the cold, unforgiving truth: standing next to Jack Brady comes with a terrible price.Actual play of Call of Cthulhu's Masks of Nyarlathotep by Chaosium Inc.View the mysteries and secrets as the investigators uncover them at:https://www.legendkeeper.com/app/clt34sk1p13j80jkt4y02fyzgMusic and Sound by Syrinscape.https://syrinscape.com/?RPGFIENDSBecause Epic Games Need Epic SoundComplete list of credits ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://syrinscape.com/attributions/?id=1449&id=1448&id=153&id=4107&id=1443&id=527&id=1853&id=103&id=6099&id=6100&id=6101&id=6325&id=8229&id=8283&id=8282&id=8261&id=8262&id=10242&id=10243&id=10245&id=10340&id=10348&id=15204&id=15456&id=15459&id=15460&id=15461&id=34660&id=35954&id=36943&id=36952&id=36951&id=43006&id=43007&id=43008&id=43009&id=43010&id=65910&id=57929&id=65912&id=59082&id=68729

Somewhere in the sprawling labyrinth of Shanghai, a young woman is pinned flat inside a cage of glass and steel, screaming as a mild-mannered man uses starving river rats to extract a single name. Meanwhile, the investigators wait in the suffocating silence of a dimly lit hotel room, their weapons drawn and a rigged flashbang strapped to the door. They know they are being hunted, stalked across the rooftops by silent, disciplined shadows wearing black martial arts slippers. As the seconds tick by and the trap prepares to spring, the party is about to collide with a highly trained breed of killer—and learn just how much blood it costs to unearth the city's deepest secrets.

The night air above the Stumbling Tiger Bar is thick with smoke and the acrid stench of burning lacquer. Trapped in the narrow alleyway behind the blazing establishment, the investigators have nowhere left to run. Waiting for them in the suffocating haze are three cultists of the Order of the Bloated Woman, their voluminous silken robes billowing in the intense heat. With the fire closing in from behind and the shadows shifting ahead, the party must decide whether to slip through the smoke in disguise, or unleash a primal, terrifying violence that cannot be undone.Actual play of Call of Cthulhu's Masks of Nyarlathotep by Chaosium Inc.View the mysteries and secrets as the investigators uncover them at:https://www.legendkeeper.com/app/clt34sk1p13j80jkt4y02fyzgMusic and Sound by Syrinscape.https://syrinscape.com/?RPGFIENDSBecause Epic Games Need Epic SoundComplete list of credits ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://syrinscape.com/attributions/?id=1449&id=1448&id=153&id=4107&id=1443&id=527&id=1853&id=103&id=6099&id=6100&id=6101&id=6325&id=8229&id=8283&id=8282&id=8261&id=8262&id=10242&id=10243&id=10245&id=10340&id=10348&id=15204&id=15456&id=15459&id=15460&id=15461&id=34660&id=35954&id=36943&id=36952&id=36951&id=43006&id=43007&id=43008&id=43009&id=43010&id=65910&id=57929&id=65912&id=59082&id=68729
