Games in The Dark

Inside the city of Al Khesh, our trio of desert sojourners wander to the Crimson Rat - a grimey cantina filled with colorful characters. Inside, they discover traders, carousers, bandits, and gamblers of all sorts. Desperate for money, the party makes varied attempts to chisel coins out of the local patrons. Some of the party members are successful, while others are presented with deadly consequences.
