Summary

In the city of Ibrido, locals enjoy a life of splendor and frivolity. Every week, a lavish party is held at the Castel di Maschera, hosted by the Marquis di Maschera, Prospero, who has a reputation for being a generous party-thrower and avid patron of the arts. Receiving an invitation to a Marquis di Maschera party is coveted, and those who enter his social circle never leave it.

But the Castel di Maschera holds many secrets. When a strange, hybrid creature — half bird, half man — is found brutally murdered in Ibrido’s city square, tattooed with the Marquis’s signature symbol of two masks, rumors have begun to spread throughout Ibrido that something more sinister may be occurring. 

Did a Marquis di Maschera party simply get out of hand, or does a real danger threaten the inhabitants of Ibrido?

Part 1 in the A REQUIEM OF WINGS series

There is a lot of text in this suggesting that the players knows about the tattoo on the dead half-bird man. I'm just to curious to how, and when they learn about this tattoo? Since they never get to see the body.. does Kara just tell them about it? If so, this is not stated anywhere in the module.

I love how this one shot looks, and going to run it this weekend. I only wish that each individual map was it's own file, for ease of print and bring to to the table.

I note that you've got a Roll20 version now. Some of us refuse to support those.. people. Can we get a FoundryVTT version? ..or at least a VTT asset pack so that we can set it up ourselves?

Just DM'd this for my brunch dnd group. They loved it! It was a perfect quick one-shot for them. Lots of RP which the group loves but still enough combat to make the stakes feel real.

correct me if I was wrong, wasn't there an NPC guide list for the "A Night of Masks and Monsters?" that was more expounded upon for each NPC at the party? I remember loving it. but if it was fever dream, please put me in check for that.

Gonna run this as my next adventure, but I'm curious, if the missing lore has been added yet? Would love to run the whole campaign, if my group likes the adventure.

There's no information on the kitchens for players who take those stairs down... kind of odd??
No loot? Not a lot of description?
Doesn't seem to be a lot of info on why this party went wrong when others didn't?

Players map is half missing....

I'm going to add a secret door form the kitchens to the lab and add some healing loot there for players.

Looks fun but needs a lot of work! Also the maps are very poor quality.

I ran this for a couple dads in my D&D group and their two daughters. It was the girls first time playing, and everyone had a great time. They are already asking me to run another adventure for them. Keep up the fantastic materials and unique story.

The basement map is cutoff along the bottom.

Also the map in the full color PDF has a clock tower and the included player map does not. It appears the wrong version of the maps is included.

Above in the image the backs of the mask cards are beautiful full color images of the maps, the included cards are simple line drawings.

In the PDF it says on page 3 it says "For more information on Emberez, read The War of Emberez supplement provided with this module." but this is not included.

Also, the player map included, shows the secret stairs down. Hard to keep it a secret from the players when it is on the map.

I am getting ready to run this as a streamed one shot and I realized in the player maps that part of the secret lab is cut off on the bottom.
would that be fixable?

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
