There lives a house of ill repute. One that draws weird things to its doorstep. There is a door. Some call it the Last Door and the things that knock are not always what they seem. Once a box was made and it exists to hold all the evils of this reality. It was never meant to be opened, but prying eyes, as they are. The coven of the House of Mystery exists to welcome all guests at their door. To peek inside that box. To right the wrongs that plague this reality.
Genre
This is Charmed meets Leverage. There’s a lot wrong with this world, especially after The Fracture. What this world needs is a little magic. A coven of witches to watch over it. And that’s exactly who resides in The House of Mystery. If your world is falling apart, or full of darkness, they’re here to restore it.
Gameplay
This is the Monster-of-the-Week campaign. Whether it’s from Pandora’s Box, The House of Mystery, The Last Door, or someone’s dreams, this rag-tag crew of witches and assorted riff-raff exist to pull those in need into their immediate proximity and save them.
