What I Have So Far
This is what i have so far. Please add other ideas.
A small carnival rolls into the small hamlet with music, jesters and other strange oddities. The ringmaster is a brilliant, charasmatic man who lures people in with his promises of wonderous bewilderment.
What PCs Dont Know
- The Ringleader is a level 3 Illusionist who has trapped a fear daemon in a mirror in his house of horrors. It feeds of childrens fears and often kills them, wiping the childs existance from the memories of the towns adult population.
- A small tent that has various wax figures, one in particular, of a man shaving another man and a woman with a veiled face holding an axe. During the day, its all nice and interesting. At night, the scenes turn horrific and bloody.
- An old vistani woman who reads the Tarokka and Disheka.
- A small group of 6 people who call themselves The Netherfans who run a freakshow. Think Cenobites.
- A young, beautiful woman does belly dances for the crowd. Her husband, a large, dumb man easily overcome with rage, will stalk and kill any who make lewd comments or obscene gestures.
- A young lion tamer is actually a werelion (or Paka)
- A magician who uses illusions to portray gory details and events.
- A Musuem that houses strange and bizzare artifacts such as Lizzie Bordens' Axe, Bloody Jacks' Knife, Sweeny Todds Straight Razor, etc.
