The Laughing Badger has long been a popular stop for
travelers, merchants, and adventurers bound for distant
lands. The last stop on the fringes of civilization, this
inn offers a warm bed, fine meal, and the company of a
friendly and welcoming staff. People from miles around
all agree that the Laughing Badger is without peer. No
one would think of harming the family that runs this fine
establishment ... until now.
A Dreadful Dawn, the fourth of Green Ronin's
Bleeding Edge adventures, finds the characters
fighting for their lives in the unlikeliest of places:
amongst the comforts of a fine inn. In this exciting new
scenario, the PCs are drawn into a sinister plot by a
vicious cult with their own plans for this innocent
family and their guests. The characters must save the
innkeepers from a gruesome night of murder, terror, and
appalling violence, and defeat the servants of the foul
God of Slaughter before it's too late.
Inside this exciting new adventure, you'll find:
- A fully detailed tavern complete with statistics
and descriptions for all locations.
- An intricate scenario that evolves based on the PCs'
actions.
- A dreadful dungeon complex filled with traps,
monsters, and a sick cult with foul ambitions.
- A slew of detailed and compelling NPCs perfect to
add to your ongoing campaigns.
This adventure, like other Bleeding Edge
adventures, offers a complex plot, a cast of detailed
characters, and deadly encounters. A Dreadful Dawn
is chock-full of dynamic environments and developed NPCs
that, when combined, promise to take your games to the
Bleeding Edge of Adventure!
