The literature of the Victorian era has generated, refined, and fostered a great number of monstrosities that have endured to this very day. Who hasn’t heard of Count Dracula or Frankenstein’s Monster? What of the Martian invasion or the exploits of the Invisible Man? And who could forget the ultimate in personality disorders in the form of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde?
There are a number of lesser known but just as fearsome literary Victorian monstrosities. Count Dracula did not appear on the printed page until 1897; however, the Victorian vampire myth was alive and well in the forms of Lord Ruthven, Varney, and Carmilla. Other monstrosities in the same mould included Brunhilda and Lady Ducayne. Pharos had a different spin on the mummy, while the Great God Pan destroyed the lives of mortals.
...And all of these literary creations paled in comparison to the factual and all-too-human Victorian monstrosity-- the anonymous and uncaptured serial killer known as Jack the Ripper, as well as the urban legend of Spring-heeled Jack.
The Imperial Age: Victorian Monstrosities collects all of these terrors and more, ready for use in your Victorian-era d20 campaign. Also included as an appendix is a complete open gaming system for handling horror using the d20 Modern rules set, as well as new feats, a new talent tree and a new template.
