“For generations, your people, the Midgardians, have spoken to the gods directly through the use of roots of the World Tree. Recently, the Midgardian king made an alliance with the leechmen of Gneth’leyah to maintain peace and gain power. Slowly, they built their churches, spreading their Gothic architecture like a plague. But you didn’t care as long as you could maintain your own prayers to the true gods. Recently, however, it seems your words of faith have been falling on deaf ears. When you pray for good harvests, locusts swarm your fields. When you pray for good winds, your ships are dashed against the rocks. Something must be wrong in the heavens, and you must go to the world tree to find out what is cursing your land, and cleanse this foul rot.” Dead Piety: Den of the Root Eater is a roughly 48-page booklet, featuring the scenario "Den of the Root Eater." The scenario is built for 4-8 hours of brutal, religious, body-horror fun for 2-7 players. It includes 7 playable characters, and now thanks to stretch goals, includes 17 monstrous enemies that can be used in any Mörk Borg adventure. This booklet is jam-packed with illustrations from many different artists. Below are a couple of random spreads from pages of the book. We are proud to say there is NO AI used in this book; everything's brought to you through the blood, sweat, and tears of humans with actual souls. -- The scenario comes with six premade characters for players to choose from, as well as a seventh that may be encountered later in the adventure, in case someone meets their bloody end. Each character comes with their own unique art, abilities, and backstory, serving as hooks to draw players into the adventure.
