GM Notes

Themes

  • Grief and acceptance — Every act deals with characters (living or dead) who cannot let go.
  • The price of knowledge — The Veilbreaker was once a servant of truth; its fall began with a question.
  • Community and isolation — The village of Thornwick is dying because its people have stopped talking to each other.

Adjusting Difficulty

For a party of 5, add one additional monster to each combat encounter. For a party of 3, remove one monster or reduce HP by 25%.
