The year is 1875. The Spiritualist movement has swept through England and even the Queen is taking part. Séances are all the rage. Everyone who’s anyone has attended or hosted one. As this is a Monster of the Week campaign, those séances could be benign, or, if attended by those with ulterior motives, could end in disaster.

In The Ascended Court, hunters get the chance to stake out the British Museum’s warehouse, make deals with demons, attend a Spiritualist ball, collect fun treasure, and uncover a conspiracy that goes all the way to top levels of the British government. This campaign is compatible with the Gothic Century setting in Monster of the Week’s Tome of Worlds but also works with just the corebook rules.

Content Warnings:

The Ascended Court contains themes of colonialism, corruption, fungal infestation, human sacrifice, mind control, murder, nightmares, the police, possession, and the enslavement of a monster.
