Candela Obscura One Shot - The Guiding Light

Candela Obscura oneshot: The Guiding Light

It is said that on All Hallow’s eve, the veil between our world and the Flare thins. Occultists revel in grand rituals, the ghouls and goblins from cautionary tales run amok in the streets. Yet, on a night where the dark creeps ever closer, the inhabitants of Newfaire mostly celebrate, having forgotten the threat of that which hails from beyond the Veil. Candela Obscura’s lighthouses keep the dark at bay, and each investigator lights up the streets, holding the line as the people go about their nights none the wiser.

But what happens if the light falters, if the dark does not come from outside, but within? The organisation caught off guard, the lanterns unlit?

Assignment #712: the Guiding Light

This oneshot is a story-driven investigation into the occult, open to both new and experienced players of the system. Pre-made character sheets and dice will be provided, but do feel free to bring your own if you wish. Candela Obscura works solely with 6-sided dice, bringing at least one die of your own would be recommended (due to game mechanics) as well as pen & paper to take notes during session.

Last but not least, the main goal of this oneshot is to have fun and tell a story together, but do note that this is a horror system and might mention adult topics. Player comfort is incredibly important to me, so if there are any topics you would like for me to avoid, please do let me know
