Editing Masque of the Red Death

{{dnd-stub}}

'''Masque of the Red Death''' is a campaign setting for [[Dungeons & Dragons]], with official releases for both [[Advanced Dungeons & Dragons]] and [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition]].

A spin-off to [[Ravenloft]], Masque of the Red Death basically is what you get if somebody at [[TSR]] goes "Okay, Ravenloft is pretty Gothic Horror, but how can we turn it up to eleven? I know, let's put the PCs in a world that's our own Earth in 1890, but monsters and evil magic are real!"

The basic story is that, on "Gothic Earth", a malevolent and corruptive entity called the Red Death, hinted as being akin to the Dark Powers of Ravenloft, has been messing around and fouling up the world for centuries, trying to plunge it into eternal (spiritual) darkness. Your players are brave, bold Victorian souls who dare to seek out that which is going "bump" in the night.
