This is the Way the World Ends: More about Dies Irae

The world of Mythic Europe is a tumultuous place. Nobles rise to power and fall to treachery. Crusaders bring violence in the name of faith. Ancient powers work unseen in the margins of the mundane world, offering deals to the unwary. The wizards of the Hermetic Order work quietly, seeking only knowledge…at least some of them. It is a world on the brink of tragedy. Bring that tragedy to your table with this supplement.

In Dies Irae, you'll find four major, potentially world-ending threats. Each threat is presented with story ideas, mechanics, and suggestions on what happens if the characters fail to stop the threat from coming to pass.

• Integration: Introduce these apocalyptic scenarios gradually, allowing players to uncover the threats piece by piece.
• Themes: Focus on themes of survival, morality, and the impact of unchecked ambition.
• Consequences: Emphasize the weight of failure, making the potential downfall of Mythic Europe a central narrative element.
