The Opening

The Blood-Bound Treaty is the only thing keeping the village of Oakhaven from becoming a larder for the undead. You must retrieve the stolen Moon Amulet from the heart of the vampire's castle without being detected. If a single drop of blood is shed on these stones, the treaty is void and the massacre begins.

Stakes

The destruction of Oakhaven and the start of a necrotic plague.

Ticking Clock·Heat Level: If the party reaches 10 Heat, the castle enters full lockdown and the Amulet is moved to a void-vault.

Background Lore

For fifty years, the treaty has held because no resident of Oakhaven has set foot in the castle. Now, Valerius has stolen the Moon Amulet, an artifact that regulates the tides and the local agriculture. A Heat System is in effect: every loud noise, failed stealth check, or non-lethal knockout adds 1 point of Heat. Higher Heat increases the number of reinforcements during the final escape.

What the World Knows

Infiltrate Castle Sanguine and return the Moon Amulet to Oakhaven to save the harvest.
