Perilous Realm: A Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay Podcast

This is a short teaser for my current Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 4th Edition campaign, The Enemy Within: Shadows Over Averheim. Surely you mean Shadows Over Bogenhafen you mad fool? The Enemy Within is a classic Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay campaign. Actually there's two of them, and we don't want a case of Mistaken Identity here! The original classic one is currently in print for both 1E and 4E from Cubicle 7 at the moment! Ever the contrary fellow, whilst everyone and their small but vicious dog is running that I'm running the second WFRP campaign to bear the name Enemy Within, published by Fantasy Flight Games circa 2013 for WFRP 3rd Edition. It is considerably rarer and hard to track down (my own copy wasn't exactly a cheap Ebay purchase). I'm converting it to 4th Edition and running it on Foundry VTT.  To disambiguate the two campaigns I will call this conversion of the 3rd Edition campaign The Enemy Within: The Cowled Conspiracy (a name one of the authors approves of). This campaign was written by Graeme Davis and Dave Allen for Fantasy Flight Games. I believe Book 1 was primarily written by Dave Allen. So what is this about? The Enemy Within: The Cowled Conspiracy is an original standalone campaign that is set 8 years after the original and is also a prequel to the Storm of Chaos and thus our run of the Thousand Thrones. It parallels the themes of the original yet is a unique standalone adventure in its own right. And I'll be adding plenty of extra content, especially given the release of the new material for the original Enemy Within: Director's Cut. Can I have the conversion? I'll be converting this campaign, but it's a huge undertaking and I'll be looking at a way to get the conversion out there if there is demand. However unlike Mirror of Desire and Eye for an Eye, this is a huge campaign so unless it's just 4e statblocks you need, you'd be better of hunting down a copy of the campaign or the original Fantasy Flight PDF. Can I join your game? Yes! Our Ubersreik Adventures are on hiatus for now, and most of the players were recruited via the startplaying.games site - there's still 1-2 paid slots available in the unlikely event anyone's interested in joining. Otherwise the episodes will find their way here shortly when there's enough content to justify.

Freshly liberated from Spittlefeld our heroes are recruited into a game of intrigue, seemingly tasked with investigating a murder without any reasonable chance of success. Will they succeed, or is a fast boat to Tilea their best option?

Betrayed by Sergeant Rudi Klumpenklug, the Ubersreik trio are sealed in the plague-addled tenement of Spittlefeld with some of the more colourful characters in Ubersreik. Can they navigate the animosities between a pair dwarf brothers and an elven hermit? Apologies to the good people of Glasgow.

They had completed their mission, and earned release from the Ubersreik Watch. Or so they thought. Now their commanding officer, Rudi Klumpenklug has learned about their efforts to get free of his grip and is not happy. He sets them on a triple patrol, reminding them that it is an offence for any watchman to fall asleep on patrol. Is this the extent of his plan?

The trio must escort a condemned prisoner to his execution at Morr's Field. Is there more to this? Can their employer guarantee they will be released from the Watch?

A panicked merchant recruits the Ubersreik Trio to look into a shady deal in the Dawihafen. Rudi continues to make their life difficult.

Disappearances run rife amongst the docks of Ubersreik, and only Marina seems to be interested in investigating these initially. Their search will take the Ubersreik Trio beneath the dwarven bridge that spans the Teufel. 

The Ubersreik Trio are back in town, shopping for cloaks and weapons in the Marktplatz. Under the shadow of Magnus the Pious's watchful gaze the trio will face their first brush with the new law in Ubersreik. Will a sinister force high in society frame our heroes for a crime they did not commit, or will they be framed for a crime they actually did commit?

Reeling from the previous night's events the people of Pfeifeldorf resolve to investigate where their ghoulish attackers came from. The Company of the Tattered Cloak join forces with the Blausblut and strike forth to Pfeifeldorf's hinterlands in search of answers. Instead they find madness, disease and corruption that seeks to turn the very land against them. Wendell Ott, now de-facto leader of the Blausblut struggles with the pressures of command. The Gold Wizard Barbossa makes a shocking discovery that shakes him to the very core.  Gui de Bordeleaux gets more than he bargained for when he receives the von Speier ring. Subsequent episodes will include downloads relevant to the campaign again - for now download the map of Pfeifeldorf's environs that Wendell Ott uses (minus the GM notes) in the opening scenes of this episode.

A showdown occurs with on one side the companions, their new allies in the Blauesblut and on the other the foul Hollenbach and his summonings. Will the arrival of a third party complicate things? Will the vile Lennhart von Speier be saved, despite his many sins? What of those of his brother?

Investigations continue in Pfeifeldorf as our heroes face corruption, snobbery, buffoonery and worse in their quest to find and rescue Gertie the Chicken. Allies are found in unexpected places, and for some the weight of their guilty conscience is too much. They discover that while talk is cheep,  fowl corruption goes all the way to the top of Pfeifeldorf's society, Will their hendurance be enough to see them through? Will they face the creature in the crypt, or will they themselves turn chicken?

The Companions of the Tattered Cloak leave Marienburg and wind their way along the banks of the River Reik towards the village of Pfeifeldorf, to carry out Lady Selena Reiva's errand and to pursue the Crusade of the Child.  Under the eaves of the Drakwald they encounter danger and must fight for their lives.

The investigation in Marienburg draws to a close as our heroes face the remnants of the Three Moons Cult in the sewers and make sense of all the clues they have found so far about the Crusade of the Child.

Their search takes them from the seedy taverns and dens to the submerged sewers of the port city.  Sir Guillame rescues his first damsel but reality proves underwhelming,  Elise makes a truly shocking discovery. Barbossa finally overcomes his fascination with anything that glows a suspicious shade of green.

Bloodied, but not defeated, by their ordeal in the Swamp Temple the three companions return to the City of Marienburg to find events have moved on since they left. Deranged Sisters of Shallya, avaricious librarians and loud, obnoxious landladies are among the dangers that the company must face as they attempt to make sense of the artifacts they recovered from the Swamp Temple. Warning: This episode features appalling Bretonnian accents and an old lady impression in the vein of Monty Python. This episode is enhanced by the following handouts:- A Map of Marienburg - With all the locations in Chapter 1 of the Thousand Thrones Campaign (strangely omitted from the adventure book). The writings of the strange hermit of the Cursed Swamp.

The companions have traveled into the depths of the Cursed Marshes in search of the truth about Karl, the child believed to be Sigmar Reborn. They must contend with cultists, mysterious pools and terrible handwriting. This episode is accompanied by a few extra handouts enhance the original scenario:- The Crusade Pamphlet - excerpts of this pamphlet (kindly supplied by Neumann and sons, official printers to the Crusade of the Child) The Journal of Daghbert the Maw - the blasphemous (and badly written) journal of the swamp cult's mutant leader.

Arriving in Marienburg after the sinking of the Gilded Drake huntress Elise and wizard Barbossa find the city reeling from the actions of a boy who may be Sigmar Reborn. They join Bretonnian Knight Errant Sir Guillame de Bordeleaux in investigating a crusade that have formed around the boy, an investigation which will take them from the slums of Marienburg to the fetid filth of the Cursed Marshes.
