In the fog-bound city of Valemire, legends whispered of an arrogant
man named Pierre Von Strom — a gentleman thief and master of impossible
heists. And so the stories claimed, Pierre could dissolve into living
vapor, slipping through locks, vaults, and walls as though the world
itself could not deny him passage.
But Pierre had a secret, he
carried an ancient crimson artifact that drank his blood and gave him
powers, and in the shadows of Valemire, he was not Pierre Von Strom. He
was known as “The Phantom.” A name he wore like a mask, and a crown.
The
last heist of his life? He was audacious enough to infiltrate the lair
of Grizzen Riddlewind, Archmage of the Ebon Circle, Keeper of the Arc
Lantern Emporium, and collector of forbidden relics, whose home was a
living fortress of twisted sorcery and mind bending spells.
Pierre’s
goal wasn’t to hunt for mere gold and jewels, nor even one of the
arcane wonders crammed upon the wizard’s shelves. His prize was far more
personal and dangerous. Pierre intended to steal the wizard’s most
precious possession: a golden locket belonging to his long-dead beloved.
A relic of love, guarded by grief, and made lethal by obsession.
It
didn’t take the Archmage very long to find out who was responsible for
the theft, and his vengeance came swift and merciless, leaving Pierre’s
grand manor a dark and rotting carcass in the heart of Valemire’s most
prestigious district. Pierre was able to steal anything he desired —
except his own fate.
50 years later...
The surrounding
neighborhood of High Water, once vibrant, has since drowned in ruin.
Pierre’s manor, lingers as a scar upon the face of Valemire, remains
boarded up for years, lifeless, left to decay, and no one dares
approach. Not the City Watch, and not even the boldest gangs will cross
its threshold. They say the house is cursed. They say those who enter...
never come out. They say something terrifying still dwells within that
house.
It is written the Bloodstone is still in there, hidden
somewhere within that rotting manor. Yet for the right price, someone
might just be bold, desperate, or foolish enough to retrieve it.…
Step inside… if you dare.
Survive the House.
Seek the Bloodstone.
Just don’t expect to leave with your life.
