A Murder of Crows- A Grim Hollow Murder Mystery

About the adventure

Twelve bodies. One city. And a killer who is only getting started. In the shadowy streets of Malkovia, people are being murdered. The victims appear unrelated. The evidence is strange. The authorities have little interest in asking difficult questions. But someone does. And when the investigation begins to uncover what is really happening beneath the city, the murders turn out to be only the beginning. THE MURDERS ARE JUST THE BEGINNING Your investigation will take you from the streets of Malkovia into its dark underworld — including a dangerous journey through the city's sewers where monsters, criminals, and worse things await. But the deeper you go, the more you discover that the killings are part of something much larger. Then the city is attacked. A catastrophic act of terrorism tears through Malkovia, destroying a huge portion of the city and leaving thousands in danger. The person responsible for the murders is behind it. Now the investigation becomes a fight for survival. FROM MYSTERY TO WAR ZONE This campaign combines investigation, dungeon crawling, tactical combat, exploration, horror, and an evolving story.
