The Story
Murder and Mischief at Stonethrall Abbey
Stonethrall Abbey is a bastion of Justice. Its god, Tyr, has high expectations of his followers. But standards have slipped in recent years.
The new Abbot is a strict disciplinarian. His regime has raised the hackles of some of the more indulgent senior clergy. There are whispers of a hedonist cult flourishing within the cloistered community, corrupted by the illicit neighbouring seaside town of Eskwycke.
Investigate mischievous monks, maritime misbehaviour and surprising megafauna, and decide the fate of Stonethrall.
Play with all three of our talented game masters, as each party rotates between tables to explore different parts of Stonethrall and its surroundings, before coming together for a dramatic finale…
