The Shadow of Golgotha (B/X) (First Edition)

Get ready for OSR gothic fantasy in the style of Castlevania, Vampire Hunter D, and The Witcher!

The Machines conquered us. The Vampires saved us. Now all Christendom lies under their rule.

In the gothic future of The Shadow of Golgotha, the vampire scions of Christ have carved up the known world amongst themselves. Their nobility and Church rain down prosperity, for the small price of hot red blood.

But the forests and moors are still haunted by gruesome creatures, from clockwork mutants to Death Herself. Lady Regina Drake and the Ruby Paladin grapple for power in the heartland, while Mother Medusa and her anchoresses plot their heresies on the frontiers.

Now is the time for bastard children, defrocked nuns, and gasoline witches to make their mark, to solve the murders of monks and sack crimson cathedrals, to explore Earth's longest nights beneath...

The Shadow of Golgotha!
