A Secret History Unearthed. A Legendary Horror Walks Again.
Presenting an epic improvised campaign for the Night's Black Agents Roleplaying Game. Do your Agents have what it takes to face the Lord of the Undead himself?
Dracula is not a novel. It's the censored version of Bram Stoker's after-action report of the failed British Intelligence attempt to recruit a vampire in 1894. Kenneth Hite and Gareth Ryder-Hanrahan have restored the deleted sections¸ inserting annotations and clues left by three generations of MI6 analysts. This is Dracula Unredacted ¸ a rare edition of Bram Stoker's masterpiece that reveals the terrifying truth behind the fiction.
Players follow up leads in the margins of Dracula Unredacted. They'll chase down the real characters from Stoker's novel¸ their descendants in the present¸ and the British agents caught in the backblast.
Follow those leads to the Director's Handbook¸ containing:
- Conspiracy nodes¸ eerie locations¸ mysterious objects and vampiric beasts
- More than 60 supporting characters in vampiric¸ heroic¸ or in-between versions
- Different versions of the real Mina Harker¸ Abraham van Helsing¸ and the other stars of Stoker's novel -- and their modern-day successors¸ descendants¸ and survivors -- who can drive the story in any direction the players look.
