“The town of Gaslight is miserably cold – a place of toil and twilight. Fuel is carved from the frozen ground to wage some distant war. Respite comes but once a year, an event marked on all citizens’ calendars – a travelling circus.
This year, however, their orderly entertainment has been replaced with something a little more… Chaotic.”
Welcome to the Circus
Circus of Chaos is an introductory scenario for Cubicle 7’s 40k RPG Wrath and Glory for up to 7 players. You take the role of a band of misfits and mutants corrupting a weary mining town disguised as twisted circus archetypes.
It is a Tier 2 adventure, running for 1-3 sessions and is intended as a primer for players and GM alike. Little to no knowledge of the game system or the Warhammer 40,000 universe is required – just a mischievous spirit, a whirring chainsword and the name of the Dark Gods playing on your lips.
Overview
You are part of a Chaos-worshipping circus travelling to the town of Gaslight at the behest of your master, the Dark Patron. Your mission is simple – wreak havoc by summoning the Dark Patron’s minions into the heart of the town.
The adventure contains:
- 17 pages of misadventure illustrated with fully human-drawn artwork and miniatures
- 9 scenes of Chaotic narrative culminating in the destruction of a small mining town (they had it coming…)
- 7 pre-generated Circus archetype characters with beautiful hand-drawn portraits
- 3 unique foes
- A unique Framework for creating your own Circus of Chaos characters
