Notes on the contents of this pack:
This Highlight contains the second part of Chapter 8-Death (and Love) in a Gondola
End of the Chapter 8 in the next Highlight !
1-Overall, use the Campo (small squares) to provoke fights and escapes, in addition to what they're described for. It's also a great way to wander around Venice, asking for directions or information. Altercations with the polizia should be frequent.
2-Run Down Campo is an ambush map. Nothing special to say, fight or flight! But you can add events such as strange creatures emerging from the water one evening while you're out walking...
3-Campo San Angelo is described as the neighborhood where Maria's lover Georgio Gasparetti lives. The weather is a little milder here. It's a good place to rest between 2 intense scenes and have a coffee. Nothing to stop the polizia from arriving... The map is realistic, based on aerial photos.
4-The Biblioteca Santa Maria della Celestia is a special map. In the sense that it's a bad lead. The old biblioteca burned down. The rebuilt building now belongs to the navy. So, at worst, investigators should waste a few hours there, and find only a few items of information relating to the Venetian navy. At best, they will find the information that the archives had been saved and transferred to the Biblioteca Marciana.
5-Piazza San Marco is one of the most beautiful squares in the world. Here, the square has emptied out due to the appalling climate and the fear that's gripping the whole city. There aren't many coffee tables out and they're constantly being washed away by the rain. Opposite, the Basilica...
6-The Basilica San Marco was rebuilt according to plan. I was even able to find some of the mosaics on the floor. So the map is quite realistic. Also, the Chapel of Saint Isidoro is located in the left wing as indicated.
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.
The FoundryVTT Ready version will be available at the end of the full chapter.
