Play as the spooky Rookwood family, haunted by both a Gothic curse and the skeletons in your closets. Can you protect the Crown with the dark powers of your curse and put your skeletons to rest?
Long Description:
The Curse of the House of Rookwood is an exciting new rpg where you play a family cursed long ago for the mistakes of your ancestors. Your curse grants you dark powers, but slowly transforms you into inhuman monsters. Each family member has a Skeleton in their closet -- a past mistake, a dark secret, or hidden feelings brewing just beneath the surface. Mend your troubled relationships and fend off other creatures of the night, and you just may reverse the family fortunes. In campaign mode, play multiple generations of the family, where the choices of one generation creates a legacy for each subsequent generation you play!
Each session at Gen Con will feature a different generation of the family. Play one session to dip your toe in the world of Rookwood, or play multiple sessions to see the family fortunes evolve over time!
Both experienced and inexperienced role-players welcome!
