Notes on the contents of this pack:
This Highlight contains the last part of Chapter 10-Cold Wind Blowing
Chapter 11 in the next Highlight !
1-The city of Trieste is strongly cooled by the wind called The Bora. I've tried to capture this in cool pastel hues.
2-If the investigators decide to trust Helmut Grossinger, he'll lead you into his hovel, and give you directions on how to meet the Lloigors in the caves of Postumia. But you still need to understand him... The map is also a bad place, with a possible altercation with bandits.
3-For the map Brother of the Skin Hideout, this Trieste Pensione near the docks is home to the brothers of the skin, and their chef Salleh. Note the presence of the owner's body, just cut up and rotting in the cupboard under the stairs... Investigators will probably be alerted by the smell.
4-The Villa de Bacchus is where Winckelmann hid the medallion so coveted by the Lloigors. It's in the cellar. Note that if 1F isn't of much use, it's probably a place where you can have fun with ghostly apparitions.
5-The Postumia Cavern Network is immense. A train is available for guided tours. I chose the Grotta del Brillante for the ambush event. The grotto of the Lloigors houses the terrible creatures and the heap of offerings in which Skedefar's leg is buried.
Please note that most of these maps can also be used in many other scenarios created by you, or in other official scenarios with a little adaptation.

SPECIAL FOUNDRY Version for Cthulhu subscribers :
At the end of each chapter (The number of Highlights depends on the size of the chapter) I should be able to deliver the chapter as a Foundry module. That way, you don't have to waste time walling up the maps - they're ready to use.
I explain how to do it just below and in the .zip file.
You must own FoundryVTT and be a Cthulhu Tiers subscriber to download it:
