Description:

Castle Drugard�an estate shrouded in mystery and a story passed down from
bards all over the Vesverian countryside. Everyone knew of Matthias
Drugard, Holy Knight of the Vesverian military, champion of the crusades
and a hero in his own rights. Everyone knew of his Lady Tatyana and how
they loved each other dearly. And ever still, everyone knew of Matthias�
companion Count Volvas, Matthias� sword brother of the crusades, and
comrade for all time.

But something went horribly awry in the Drugard estate, and after Matthias
brutally murdered his wife, his wife�s servants returned the favor by
killing him on the spot. Volvas arrived only moments later and condemned
the servants to be hung, one by one, for the murder of Lord Matthias
Drugard. Volvas could only speculate as to what exactly had happened, but
he soon disappeared after the execution to leave the estate completely
abandoned.

But whatever happened to the immense wealth Matthias had been hording? The
spoils of his numerous military victories? They had no kin, and Volvas
disappeared�so where did all this treasure go?

Many say the treasure remains within the estate, these many years later,
awaiting adventurers to find it and claim it for themselves. But strange
things have begun to happen in the Vesverian countryside, stories or
strange monsters and an eerie mist flood the local taverns of the capitol
city Grale. Merchants speak of shadowy figures in the windows of the
abandoned castle, and wanderers offer stories of twisted beasts which roam
the ever thickening mists.

But bravery is a thing often offered to the foolish and greedy, and
curiosity perks even the wariest of travelers when it comes to such a
hushed story as is Matthias�. So now, as a traveler in Grale, having heard
so many stories of Matthias� treasure and unbound wealth hidden in the
folds of his giant estate�what will you do? Will you seek the treasure
that has been lost for so long? Or will you seek the truth of what really
happened that night so long ago? Was Matthias really the murderer of his
own beloved wife? Or was there or more foul sort of play afoot?

What will you do?

Castle Drugard: Blood and Regret is a fantasy/horror/survival game crafted
for the hardiest of adventurers. Search the labyrinth which is the Drugard
estate and seek out that giant horde of treasure, or follow the clues and
unravel the mystery that is the Drugard Affair. Did Matthias truly kill
his wife in cold blood? Or perhaps was it the other way around? Why were
all of Matthias� servants put to death if only a handful actually murdered
him? There are too many questions here, too many stories untold. So find
your path, and seek out that which tempts you most.

Castle Drugard is a closed-cast RPG, meaning, there are only a limited
amount of positions available. I�m looking to form two or more parties of
adventurers to seek out the Castle Drugard and become ensnared in its
silent secrets. This game will be entirely GM run, and the chance that
characters will be injured and/or killed is quite possible. But I�m the
kind of GM who likes to see all my players survive to the very end, after
all, nobody likes to lose their character. ;) Any type of fantasy
characters are allowed, all races and classes are open. This is a neutral
fantasy setting meaning anyone can make any type of character. So hurry up
and join, positions won�t last long. ^^
