The Lady Afterwards - an Alexandrian Welcome to Secret Histories
FATE, Call of Cthulhu | Campaign
About the adventure
You've been summoned to Alexandria, a city of coloured lights and curious histories. An old friend needs you to track down a woman. She's probably in trouble. Probably trouble herself. Cherchez la femme, the saying goes. But what does the lady look for? The Lady Afterwards is a roleplay-centric, slow burn investigation mystery adventure. It takes place in 1920s Alexandria, in the world of the Secret Histories, where hidden gods watch over a Lovecraftian world of apocalypse and yearning. This scenario should take from 5 to 10 sessions to complete, based on the group's foci and predisposition.
