The flickering gaslight barely penetrates the swirling fog that clings to the cobblestone streets of Arkham. Rain slickens the worn stones, reflecting the distorted faces of the few souls brave (or foolish) enough to venture out this late. A chill deeper than the November air seeps into your bones, a premonition of the unnatural things that lurk in the shadows. You are Thomas Blackwood, a disgraced professor of ancient languages and forgotten lore. A promising career at Miskatonic University crumbled under accusations of dabbling in dangerous knowledge, whispers of forbidden texts and unsettling experiments. Now, you exist on the fringes, a pariah haunted by the faces of those who dismissed you, mocked you, and ultimately, exiled you. But the mockery has stopped. The whispers have turned to desperate pleas. Strange happenings plague Arkham. Animals are found mutilated, bearing markings no earthly creature could inflict. People vanish without a trace, their homes left eerily untouched. A creeping madness infects the town, twisting minds and distorting reality. Tonight, a crumpled note, delivered by a trembling messenger boy, has summoned you to the dilapidated Blackwood Manor, a decaying monument to your family's shame. Your estranged uncle, Alistair Blackwood, a man consumed by occult research, has disappeared. The note, scrawled in frantic handwriting, speaks of ancient evils awakened, of rituals gone awry, and a growing darkness threatening to consume everything. He begs for your help, not as a nephew, but as the only one who might understand the forces he has unleashed. He claims to have found the key to unlocking unimaginable power, but warns that the price of such knowledge is more than any mortal soul can bear. Standing before the imposing gates of Blackwood Manor, the air thick with the stench of decay and something else, something indescribably wrong, you know you have a choice to make. Ignore the plea and let Arkham succumb to its fate, or confront the darkness that dwells within and risk losing your sanity, your soul, and perhaps, even your life. The choice, Professor Blackwood, is yours. But be warned, some doors are best left unopened, and some secrets are better left buried. Welcome to Arkham. Welcome to your nightmare. The game begins now.
