The Mummy Rises - a Masque of the Red Death adventure

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Welcome to Gothic Earth! 

Gothic Earth, first revealed in 1994 with the release of the Masque of the Red Death and Other Tales boxed set, allows D&D players to enter a dark vision of our own world in the 1890s. The classic setting came to 5th Edition last year with the release of the Masque of the Red Death Player's Guide

Now, fresh from the fevered imaginings of Mithral-best-selling DMs Guild creator R P Davis, comes an introductory adventure for Gothic Earth: The Mummy Rises!

London, 1890s: At the grand opening of an exhibition featuring newly-discovered Egyptian artifacts at the British Museum, cultists from the Order of the Scarab and their undead minions attack an eminent Oxford University professor and Prince Albert Victor. The adventurers step in to save the day, but in so doing embroil themselves in Section 13's fight against the Red Death in London and beyond, recruited by Mycroft Holmes and another professor by the name of van Helsing.

The Mummy Rises introduces new concepts integral to Masque of the Red Death, like Fear and Horror saves.

Luckily, thanks to the incredible generosity of the Masque of the Red Death Player's Guide creator, Jeremy Forbing, The Mummy Rises contains everything you need to play! The Mummy Rises comes complete with a short document explaining the core concepts of 5th Edition Gothic Earth, in addition to pre-generated characters featuring all the new Masque of the Red Death character classes and abilities clearly explained. 

The Mummy Rises has everything you need for approximately 4 hours of adventure in Gothic Earth! All you need is dice and pencils.

This is a nice, well written introductory adventure. My only criticism has to do with the story line. It's pretty cliche, and has been done at least a hundred times, and in a thousand different ways over the years. Regardless, I can still see this adventure being used to introduce new players to the setting, and would definitely work well at any TTRPG convention virtual or otherwise.

Hello, I just finished running this as the introduction adventure for the setting and the players and I loved it!
However, in the "Holmes's Study" section, it mentions an handout N°2, but I didn't find it. Did I miss it?
Thanks

Nope! I cut that handout and forgot to cut that reference. Thank you! I shall adjust the adventure, and I'd like to credit you for letting me know in the revision. If that's okay with you, please email infoATkaboutergamesDOTcom with how you'd like to be credited. =)

Also, please feel free to leave a written review!

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.
