Ugothols are the shapechanging bastard children of
monsters. Abandoned by their
aboleth masters, they now prey freely in the swamps and coastal cities of men.
A serial killer
emulates the methods of a vampire—poorly—in order to throw authorities off
the trail. His blood-draining efforts
arouse the curiosity of a pair of real faceless stalkers looking to breed.
An aboleth artifact
activates, lighting up a heretofore hidden pattern of glyphs. The diagram—part writing, part
map—calls faceless stalkers to it.
Unfortunately, the artifact lies beneath the papal seat of the Church of
the White Aster, and the presence of so many aberrations alarms the lantern
archons that guard the catacombs.
Home to a college of
transmuters and frequented by druids and the fey, the small city of Lisdoonvarna has a
casual attitude toward shapeshifting.
Wards built into the city walls announce the presence of doppelgangers,
but a gang of faceless stalkers hunts with impunity.
