MASQUERADE: THE PROMISE

The Promise is the next Narrative Event of the Masquerade Arc. The curse that binds your flesh is unraveling, as you are framed and hunted for the assassination of Adrestia's Keeper. With time running out, you must gather your allies and embark upon a desperate final mission to raid the Cult's headquarters in the depths of Blackreach quarry. Untold horrors stir, above and below, as the Hierophant finally opens the Promise and the truth of this world is revealed. 

The Promise is a special quest, told across multiple tables in two parts. This event will weave elements of immersive theatre throughout, as the story unfolds.

    Absolutely BRILLIANT! Really welcoming vibe from the jump! Good selection of drinks including non alcoholic! Lovely coffee, sandwiches, pizza etc. The game was sensational! Whether you’re a seasoned player or a newbie keen to try the GM’s are fabulous, knowledgeable and sensational storytellers. There are great safety tools in place and the tables are welcoming to all! I had a great time fighting side by side with folks I’d just met! Will definitely be back!
