The Darkest Dream - Chapter One of the Red Star Rising Campaign

A Setting-Independent, Immersive Experience Adventure for First-Level Characters
 
The masked agents looked down upon the field where the tents of the Hanataz Carnivalle stood - their breaths  forming  quiet  mists  in  the  cold, night  air. The  silvery  light  from  Luneós  shone  down  upon  the colorful canopies and the many wagons... providing the assassins a perfect view of both the Traveling Folk's camp and the Carnivalle proper. The area was quiet save for the few figures that moved among the tents, apparently serving on night-watch duty. Even in the darkness, the leader of the group could tell they were the Hanataz youth - the ones he had noted earlier in the day. And the ones his mistress had spoken of.
Though they were young, she had given him a stern warning about them - and her word was never to be called into question. It was no matter, they would be dead soon enough.
The leader turned to his charges, his voice a hissing whisper: "We shall wait until the Carnivalle closes on the morrow... and bide our time until they have departed this place. 'Tis then we shall do the deed." Looking back to the field, his mouth curved into an evil smile behind his mask. Then, without another word, he nodded to the group, and together they slid silently into the dark forest like shades passing beyond the grave...

Adventure Synopsis

 
The  Darkest  Dream  begins  the  epic  tale  of  a  group  of  Hanataz  youth  who  are  charged  with  working security for the last Carnivalle of the season. The Hanataz are the Traveling Folk of the world of Zyathé and are an ostracized people due to the many Blood-Touched members of their troupes. But while the Traveling Folk are not welcome in most towns and villages, the shows they put on are enjoyed by many.
But this is no ordinary Carnivalle.
Nefarious  and  vile  schemes  are  afoot...  an  ancient  foe  plots  deadly  revenge...  a  group  of  organized criminals looks to frame the Hanataz for murder... and, nearby, creatures from the Dark Below plan an attack  on  the  camp. Beyond  this, it  is  Darktide's  Eve, which  is  a  time  of  frightening  and  evil  portents. Can you and your friends overcome the many dangers set against you, protect the troupe, and solve the mystery of the Darkest Dream?
If you don't, many will die. Including those you love.
