House of Masks (CCC-TXLIFE-01)

Author's Preface:

This adventure was written for the Unite the Factions Extra Life Day 2019. All author proceeds from the sale of the adventure will be donated to Extra Life.

This adventure is a little different. Inspired by board games, House of Masks combines on-the-spot improv with using character skills to create social interactions that can be activlely won and lost. Characters get to play through a few of these, creating a unique experience. The adventure's story takes place at a grand ball and has been designed to allow for other DMs, players from other tables, or special guests to get involved in the roles of NPCs. This of course is not required, as at it's still very much a single-table adventure.  

House of Masks serves as an fun interlude of sorts in the Spies Below the Moonsea series, and as such doesn't require knowledge of the other adventures in the series, or to be followed-up by another adventure. It's entirely self-contained. Enjoy!

About the Adventure:

About the Spies Below the Moonsea series

This series of adventures deals with the Zethlentyn Protectorate – a city-state in the Underdark. Adventures in this series can be played without knowledge of the others and in any order. This is the sixth adventure in series, and while it makes use of the story awards from the first five, the story presented here is independent of them.

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.
