My ramblings about HERO System ideas and existing campaigns.
Summary As the companions ready themselves for the long night ahead, the temperature plummets and the wind begins to howl. Rain becomes sleet and it gets so very cold that even the watch must be made from inside the shelter of the cottage itself. With such a potentially deadly foe on the loose, the companions wisely choose to set a watch.
