Under the impetus of Greg Stafford's amazing Great Pendragon Campaign, and with the speculative new freedom offered me by the prospect of PDF stuff, I've begun toying again with the notion of a generational horror RPG, specifically a Gothic horror RPG. Lots of tainted lineages and looming manors with one light at the turret and incest and blasted ( Read more... )

I’m pretty sure I would play that. There is really not enough proper Victorian/Edwardian gothic RPGs to go around. :-)

Definitely interested in the game. I was forcefed Wuthering Heights twice (high school and college), and I loathed it both times.
