Last Will and Testament of Count Scurlock [Blades in the Dark]
Blades in the Dark | Campaign
About the adventure
You return to your lair to find a note, impaled with a dagger onto the door. It informs you, in a florid cursive script, that Lord Scurlock has departed from this world, and saw fit to leave you and other toothsome, capable gangs of scoundrels with a "key" to his castle, that whoever manages to find the right "lock" for it will have his pick of the powerful, precious etherical and technological marvels within it. On the back of the note is a mysterious encrypted enigma, a puzzle missing several pieces. This raises quite a few question. Did Scurlock actually left this world (the note didn't say "die", importantly) or is this an elaborate trap? Is the note the "key", or perhaps the dagger? Who else has received his missive, and how can you get your hand on their note to compare it to yours... or perhaps more importantly, what will they do to get their hands on yours?

How to prepare
No mic nor camera required, we'll communicate via text. A Discord account is needed, and while I intend to help you with whatever questions you might have, being familiar with Blades' basic rules would be helpful.
What I provide
We'll be using mainly Discord, a dice roller and the tool "Online in the Dark", a freely available archive for sheets, clocks and whatnot.
Gameplay details
First of all, we are going to have a Session 0 dedicated to, amongst other things, discussing the safety tools and what we'll do with them. You will be able to fill the Lines and Veils document anonymously, and we'll generally be adults, mindful about each others' needs and limits.
