Dracula’s Empire – a Quickstart Adventure

Mina is missing. Van Helsing noticed her absence shortly after they docked in London, and he fears she may still be under Dracula’s malign influence, despite Dracula’s death. He grew suspicious after discovering the missing wooden stakes and witnessing her strange behavior during the journey home. He has now called a meeting in London.

As the act unfolds, bodies begin to appear, drained of blood and horribly mutilated. At first, these murders seem to resemble the Ripper or Torso killings, but the Ripper-like mutilations are a cover for bite marks on the victims.

When a mysterious woman is been spotted mingling in high society, it sparks rumors of unusual parties and gatherings. Could these events be connected to the murders and the disappearance of local children?
