Introduction

Come on in to my humble wagon, weary travelers. Have a spot of tea (or something stronger, if you'd care for it), perhaps peruse my meager wares, or maybe, if you're brave enough, have your fortunes told.

What's that? You want to hear what the future has in store for you? Excellent. The cards will tell the past, the present, and the future as well. Take a seat on the cushion, relax. Do take a drink—after all, it's your money, and you need to be relaxed for the cards to be able to read you. What's that? You thought it was me reading the cards? Oh, don't be silly, dearie!

Just pick three, sweets. Three cards is all we'll need to get started. But don't peek! We wouldn't want that, now would we? After all, there's no point in getting an early glimpse into the future. That's why you're paying me.

Herein, we present Tales from the Vardo: Creatures of the Night and the Games They Play. In these pages, you will find many different things that go bump in the night, and a number that bump back. Ghoulish creatures like the Werebat and Rage Zombie await to tear you limb from limb. We also have included a number of ways to theme a player class around this setting, including the mysterious Ankanni and deranged Mad Scientist.

Of course, there must always be a hook that pulls the vict—er, players into the setting, and as such we have provided a number of magic items to lure the unwary to their doom. There are also several battlegames to keep your park flowing through these dark times. Finally, we have a section on creating quests and a sample one to keep your players entertained.

What a horrible night to have a curse.
