The Wings of Rot

The Wings of Rot is the second official case for the trifold pamphlet haunted investigation game Sworn by Ghostlight. The first case—The Ebon Wood Effigies—saw you take on the role of an investigator tracking a serial killer in a haunted city. This second case sees you investigating strange occurrences that lead to disappearances across a subterranean district of the city known as The Rift.

'Folks're goin' missin' more'n usual, aye. Actin' all odd afore they go. Carvin' weird shit on the walls. They're like to be dead or gone below. Ain't no escapin' 'ere otherwise. They're like to be dead. Best you put this 'un behind you 'n leave. The sooner the better.'
- Rifter

Who or what is behind these events is not predetermined in this game. Your own investigation, the clues you find, and the folk you meet along the way will lead you to your own conclusions. Whether you are right or not, is yet to be determined.

Sworn by Ghostlight

Sworn by Ghostlight is a GM-less game intended for solo play - or co-op with two investigators - over one to two sessions. It is designed to be printed as a tri-fold pamphlet TRPG. All you need for play is a six-sided dice, 2 ten-sided dice, and some pen & paper.

You play an Occult Detective in the haunted, Victorian-London inspired city of Mónaþstone, where the moon's cracked surface bleeds Ghostlight onto the world, festering as ghosts, necromancy, and undeath.
   Investigate locations & clues. Interrogate suspects & witnesses. Fend off assailants. Solve the investigation and close the case.
   The culprit - their motive, means, & opportunity - are not predetermined in a Sworn by Ghostlight game. Rather, the clues you gather help you to envision them. When you feel you have all the information you need, make the final reveal & close the case.
   But, will you catch the real culprit, or is there more to the case? Are they out there still, even now? Play to find out.

Sworn by Ghostlight is played using simplified rules from the Ironsworn RPG System.  Every game of Sworn by Ghostlight is unique to your version of events.
   May Ghostlight guide your path. 

Players: solo, or co-op 
Playtime: 3+ hours
