A lot of adventuring in a town like <b>London</b> happens in the street. Sure, you could try for encyclopedic knowledge and describe ALL THE STREETS. But you can also make a few nice tables. Which allows you to introduce a lot more of oddities that the encyclopedic approach.<br />
<br />
So if you need a place to meet, your players follow someone that goes into a building, a recurrent question will be: “what’s on the other side of the street?”,then roll on the table and improvise!<br />
As always, <i>Odd numbers</i> are <i>odd encounters</i>.<br />

<h3>
Notes:</h3>
<br />
<div>
<ol start="11">
<li>This is a reference to Johann Gottlieb Burckhardt (24 December 1836 – 6 February 1907), a Swiss psychiatrist. This is highly anachronistic, most of the research in psychology and neurology starts with Freud at the end of the 19th century. But who doesn’t like a good transorbital lobotomy?</li>
<li>A very wild growth of a mix of rose and strawberry starch make it impossible to get to the manor without ripping your clothes. The smell of the garden is refreshing, though... </li>
<li>A Torii generally signals the entrance of a Shinto shrine. This one leads (if open) to steps in the middle of a forest in Usa Jingū, Ōita Prefecture.</li>
<li>Historically, this place was in Westminster Bridge Road in Lambeth. Philip Astley (8 January 1742 – 27 January 1814) is regarded as the "father of the modern circus" </li>
<li>He uses an arcanum that let him know the True Name of anyone he speaks to. The title can be his own imagination or also given by the arcanum, as you prefer</li>
<li>Not everyone can properly read in the lower classes, but letters are the only cheap way to stay in touch with relatives</li>
</ol>
<ol start="21">
<li>The guards of the honourable east indian company will probably not be welcoming unless you have a very good excuse, or the means to bribe them</li>
<li>The Worshipful Company of Farriers is one of the Livery Companies of the City of London. The Farriers, or horseshoe makers, organised in 1356 and received a Royal Charter of incorporation in 1674. At the beginning of the 19th century, they are extremely important to the economy, since horse and windpower are the backbone of the industry. Steam-power is still quite experimental…</li>
<li>Do not tell your players right away that they age a year, describe muscle and joints aching, maybe a few new white hairs or some balding. If they use the fountain regularly for monetary purposes, MAKE THEM PAY!</li>
<li>In London 1814, the pollution of the air is such that everyone wears a hat to protect their hair. Feathers are a good way to personalise or decorate your hat.</li>
<li>Will you ever be able to trust the other members of your party after seeing their zombieface?</li>
<li>This is a reference to a fictional Balkan country that is part of the universe of “The Adventures of Tintin”. If you are interested, read on wikipedia: Syldavia</li>
</ol>
<ol start="31">
<li>Think more like morrowind mushrooms than smurf mushrooms. The witches are descendants from witches that fled Salem over 150 years ago</li>
<li>A chase on the roof of the street could lead to a character or NPC to unintentionally break the nose of this wonder</li>
<li>The house actually EATS all noises and grows, minimally, with every noise made in front of it. The house loooves gunshots. “The unwinding sleep hotel”, on the other side of the street refuses any client that behave loudly, since the silence of the street does not expand into the hotel</li>
<li>The Scafell Pike dwarves are secluded but loyal subjects of the crown. They inhabit the highest “mountain” of England and their craftdwarfship with metal is known all over the Empire.</li>
<li>Paranoid, beware ! If your players are a tad jumpy, take each one apart to tell them what’s on the poster. Let the paranoid games begin!</li>
<li>The Ferrari Brothers existed in the 19th century and were celebrated mandolin creators, but operated out of Napoli (Italy). This could be a cousin with scottish ties, or a plain impostor selling knockoffs</li>
</ol>
<ol start="41">
<li>The cure only lasts for 40 days, unless the “patient” strictly adheres to the fasting rules of the christian Lent (40 days). Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poem “Christabel” (written between 1797 & 1801) has influenced the development of vampire fiction</li>
<li>If you want to know more about Stage or Relay stations, check the description of this very important establishment before the steam age: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swan_with_Two_Necks,_London">The Swan with Two Necks</a></li>
<li>The “Antithaumaturgic Church of England & Salem” is against all forms of magic and miracles unless cast by Jesus Christ. Good luck explaining to these witch burners that you ARE the son of god, reborn or otherwise</li>
<li>Jason is very good at producing laxatives and sleep potions. Apart from that he experiments a lot. Explosions occur regularly. He has not yet thought of weaponizing the explosion power yet…</li>
<li>Aldwin is an old Elf, a former Fey-king from Scandinavia. Any kind of druidic power you can imagine, he possesses. His mission is to help the last flowers of London survive…</li>
<li>O’brien is a mercenary smith that has seen all the conflict zones of the empire, repairing arms and armors all around the world. In Zambesi, he bought a slave that he later on married. She’s learned to tailor clothes with the best masters in London and knows the art of combining textile with protective armor, without emcumbering the wearer nor damaging too much the look of the vestment.</li>
</ol>
<ol start="51">
<li>The quill used by Nibelung Målarson is an Arcanum. It is in his family since the time an Ice Queen gifted it to his grand-father, as his tribe, the Rus’, saved scandinavia from a dragon. He is in his 12th reincarnation since his family and quite bothered, since whether his father nor his grandfather have been rebirthed (or not found since the rebirth)</li>
<li>The clocks show the time in very strange places on small side clocks, like in “Skavenblight”, “Agartha”, “Hesperides”, “Camelot”, “Thule”, or have strange clocks like the one for “Warhoon” (Capital of Mars/Barsoom) which is 37 minutes longer than a normal clock, another one with 85H12Min named “Sidon” (Capital city of the moon Europa), a clock including the seasons for “Arcadia”, and “Gehinom” which only counts up, endlessly, the number of hours, days, months and years since the opening of the gates of hell (if traced back, the clocks shows January 18th 749 A.D. to be the date where they opened - 1065 years before 1814). The clockmaker is Andreas Junior Schindel, a descendant of the maker of the Prague astronomical clock.</li>
<li>This house started burning during the Great Fire of London in 1666 (historical). It was Thomas Farriner’s bakery. He left an arcanum unattended, that started to produce massive amounts of flour, which ignited when it came near the oven. The arcanum continues to produce highly flammable flour</li>
<li>“Sir” Jeffrey Dunstan was a wig maker and was Mayor of Garrat. For more information on the Garrat Elections, read : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garrat_Elections. There was historically never a statue made to the image of “Sir” Jeffrey Dunstan</li>
<li>The gigantic phase spider that lives in the basement of the house since she got through the Veil per accident. She only gets out to eat what her nets fang. She is very discreet about it. She is able to teleport up to 50 m with each “jump” and will only fight to defend the eggs she is brooding in the cellar. The neighbourhood may be eradicated once the army of small phase spiders hatch…</li>
<li>This building is an industrial sized Orangerie producing the citrus fruits that Buckingham palace devour every breakfast. The royalty spares no cost to keep this place heated over 25°C at any time and very damp.</li>
</ol>
<ol start="61">
<li>Goutysnarl was brought back from Australia (the penitentiary colony) by a reformed thief that had made friends with some aborigenes… His deeds might have been redeemed by his exile, but his victims had not forgotten his deeds and took revenge on him. After they burned down his house, the gigantic tree grew within a week</li>
<li>“Boyd’s finest meats” also sells very cheap meats, provided you do not ask for the origin. Their “Spiced kibble” is composed of rat, dog, cat and other mammals meat, mixed with beef, pork or wild game, to cover the strange taste. Still, it’s a secret where the meat comes from (Zoogs are frequent suppliers)</li>
<li>This house is completely invisible and if anyone tries to touch it while not seeing it, something happens to distract them (two cats fight or attack someone, a cat comes nearer to be petted, a pyramid of vegetables from the nearest stands collapses, …)</li>
<li>The owner of the shop, Christiaan Hendrik de Schweinitz, is a grumpy old man with a rattish nose. He will never disclose any information on the use or effects of the fungi, but will sell them. Any fungus can be bought or ordered there (but it can take up to 6 months for exotic mushrooms to be delivered) by using its vernacular or scientific name.</li>
<li>This is the place of residence of the Raven King, a legendary Fey Lord. The house is much bigger from the inside, a real palace. Being allowed inside means a wealth of trouble in the future. Humans are the favorites pawns of the immortals...</li>
<li>At the beginning of the 18th century, the government collected a lot of its income from customs taxes, paid on the import of tea, cloth, wine and spirits. Such taxes were high, up to 30%. Smuggled goods were a lot cheaper. This pier is operated by the Water Snakes, a ruthless gang dealing in contraband tea and opium (which gives them some monetary power they can use to bribe officials)</li>

<br />
<br />
I'm not the only one writing stuff on the internet, as it appears. Not even the only one writing RPG stuff, can you imagine! And others also have great ideas!<br />
So instead of 1) stealing the stuff or 2) reinventing the wheel, I decided to make this post to list the tables, influences, and works I used to build Into London 1814 or while running it.<br />
<br />
<h3>
English Speaking resources</h3>
<br />
<ul>
<li>One very important source of inspiration is the Series <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taboo_(2017_TV_series)" target="_blank">Taboo</a>, by and with Tom Hardy. The atmosphere, the intrigues, the treatment of the supernatural aspects, the costumes, and the sceneries are the reason why I wanted to make Into London 1814.</li>
<li>Other founding stones are found in the "<a href="http://www.lulu.com/shop/jack-w-shear/tales-of-the-grotesque-and-dungeonesque/paperback/product-21744028.html" target="_blank">Tales of the Grotesque & Dungeonesque</a>" by Jack W. Shear. His book contains rules, random tables, new spells, new monsters, and a campaign setting for Gothic Fantasy adventures. I don't use the rules, but some part of the universe are perfect for Into London 1814 (at least the D100 occupation table). And Jack really does know his gothic literature, he's a really solid source for this kind of ambience</li>
<li>One thing Taboo got right was how filthy London was back then. But since Taboo is TV, the smell is missing... <a href="https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/0300216114/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1" target="_blank">Dirty Old London: The Victorian Fight Against Filth</a> by Lee Jackson might only be a book, but you'll literally will feel dirty reading how dirty London was, back then (and how long it took to make it less of a cesspool)</li>
<li>Not citing Chris McDowall's blog would be a crime. At least read <a href="http://www.bastionland.com/2017/09/bastions-triple-rule.html" target="_blank">Bastion's triple rule</a>, with in mind that Bastion = London in my head</li>
<li>Need some more random & weird encounters? Well "Sheep and sorcery" has two very nice tables (one for night, one for day) to offer. <a href="https://sheepandsorcery.blogspot.com/2019/06/welcome-to-whispershire-2d20-encounter.html">https://sheepandsorcery.blogspot.com/2019/06/welcome-to-whispershire-2d20-encounter.html</a></li>
<li>Need an NPC ranting about the life he's living? check "Coins & Scrolls" table for peasant's grievances and adapt them a tiny bit to fit into the Big Smoke: <a href="https://coinsandscrolls.blogspot.com/2017/07/osr-1d100-peasant-grievances.html">https://coinsandscrolls.blogspot.com/2017/07/osr-1d100-peasant-grievances.html</a></li>
<li>"Coins & Scrolls" also have a great table for <a href="https://coinsandscrolls.blogspot.com/2017/04/dickensian-npc-generator.html" target="_blank">Dickensian NPCs</a>, whose books descibes the world about 50 years after 1814, but this is still a very good and useful resource (the "Appearance" & "Demeanour" entries are worth gold)</li>
<li>If you need an NPC (or PC) with an unusual background, <a href="http://rolesrules.blogspot.com/2014/01/52-baroque-character-backgrounds.html" target="_blank">52 baroque character backgrounds</a> by Roger G-S on rolesrules is a very ODD resource that will jumpstart your imagination with weird strange NPCs</li>
<li>London is the capital of an empire whereupon the sun never sets. With strange countries also come strange religious beliefs... Against the wicked city has a very good post on that topic, to create a religion quasi on the fly: <a href="http://udan-adan.blogspot.com/2017/02/religions-of-great-road.html" target="_blank">Religions of great Road</a> by Joseph Manola</li>
<li><a href="https://www.fantasynamegenerators.com/" target="_blank">Fantasy Name Generators</a> never ceases to be a good source of names (and I gotta admit, even for welsh, scottish and irish names, I need help)</li>
<li><a href="http://odd.pushingcows.se/" target="_blank">a character generator for into the ODD</a>, maybe not the most developped characters come out of it, but it works and is a good basis for afterwards (I love to use the "though questions" made popular by the games powered by the apocalypse to create bonds with the universe and between the player's characters). Anyway, kudos to pushing cows!</li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
<h3>
French Language Resources</h3>
The french translation of "Into The Odd" added a lot of stuff to the game (also a lot of not so relevant stuff, but we'll concentrate on the positive here)<br />
<br />

<li>The french introductory set to Into The Odd is a wonderful resource, and one I use a lot for Into London 1814: <a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/ITO-kit_de_demo.pdf" target="_blank">Into The ODD french intro kit</a></li>
<li>There is also a mini-campaign "Into the Cave" developped for the crowdfunding for the french version of Into The Odd which is really nice (<a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/IntoTheCave1.pdf" target="_blank">Episode 1</a>, <a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/IntoTheCave2.pdf" target="_blank">Episode 2</a>, <a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/IntoTheCave3.pdf" target="_blank">Episode 3</a> & <a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/IntoTheCave4.pdf" target="_blank">Episode 4</a>) and introduce Isfets and Zoogs (werecat-like-people and skaven-like wererats)</li>

Even though the streets of London are dirty as hell, a lot of activity is to be found there: living quarters are very small and overcrowded, craftsmen (or women) often owns very small and dark places and therefore work just outside their workshop and a lot of person still work in the streets.<br />
<br />
If you were to be in pursuit of a culprit, chased by an enemy, shadowing a person of interest, there are a lot of obstacles that can bring interesting scenes in your game.<br />
You can also use this table to spice up any travel within the Smog City, but the entries were created with a concurrent sense of urgency for the players in mind.<br />
Odd numbers are odd encounters.<br />

<br />
The neighbourhood of High Docks and the Church of the Wings of Salvation are described in the Introduction Kit of the french version of Into The Odd.<br />
So why do I describe it further?<br />
Well, because of the impact in my campaign that my player’s actions have had on this neighbourhood and their new relationship to the Fisher.<br />
For me, High docks is situated in front of Whitechapel, on the other bank of the Thames...<br />
<br />
<h3>
What happened with the Fisher (and why it matters to me):</h3>
In the Intro Kit, he is described as a peaceful man, mostly keeping to himself, but with a very big power: If he touches someone, he can impose his will on that person (Will save negates).<br />
¾ of my players did not make the save, and the 4th was somehow forced to get along with the others (peer pressure, you’d call it).<br />
They made a lot of money during the adventure and decided (i did not influence them at all there) to give 95% of their earnings to the Fisher (~20£).<br />
This makes him not only influential thanks to his power and his followers, he is suddenly also wealthy. He will definitely use this money to further his arch-project, buying materials for the construction of his gigantic boat, and probably also paying a few skilled workers to speed things up.<br />
<br />
<h3>
High Docks:</h3>
This wealth means that the neighbourhood of High Docks will flourish, attracting more and more craftsmen and craftswomen, but also all kinds of parasites, predators and profiteurs of the human sort.<br />
The Fisher will have to either turn to the authorities (which means implicating himself in the local politics) or to police the neighbourhood himself (well, manner of speaking, his acolytes will be patrolling). Unless an influential Player Character steers him toward the political options, the Fisher will resolve the matter using his own special means: he’ll capture the worst ruffians and try to convert them to his cause (with his weird power over the minds) and use them against those witty enough to keep away from his touch.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Militarisation of High Docks:</h3>
But, for me, the priority of the Fisher is to secure his neighbourhood against his past.<br />
He is a Deep One explorer that has been trialed for treason in Innsmouth and that his former kingdom tries to bring to justice, sending him their fishbat-soldiers squads by way of the Thames.<br />
With this money, the Fisher will first employ shooters to kill the fishbats in flight while a very tight net of wire fence is being built up to 6 meters (which will cost a lot of money since metal is not cheap and the fence must be built by hand) along the banks of the Thames.<br />
How will the regent react to a militarisation attempt of High Docks? How will the crown react if they learn about the underwater kingdoms lurking around their island? Could the Deep Ones be interesting allies against their rebellious colonies and their Blocus?<br />

I love to use rumors as a tool to introduce
future scenarii and plant the mood in the game.<br />
I normally let
the players roll for one rumor at beginning of play. I also use this
kind of tables when my players visit an inn, a pub or a party to seed
informations that might be relevant in a later adventure.<br />

<h3>
What’s behind it</h3>
<ol>
<li>That would be an Isfet, a kind intelligent cat. They mostly live
in the district of Katzenjammer (between Whitechapel & the city
center). They are at war with the Zoog (evil were-rats)</li>
<li>I mean, why not. A shark would be too much for my taste, but some
kind of big Monster in the Thames like in the Doctor Who episode
“thin Ice” (S10E03) is something that can be interesting.</li>
<li>The Hospitaller Order of Dunwich is searching for artifacts. They
can be great allies, but also dangerous enemies</li>
<li>This is not really true: some people saved by the Nulla Corvi have
been roughed up by their collectors, but never killed. However, the Ó
Céitinn gang, who was in charge of collection for them up to
recently, has begun racketting the families of the healed people and
a few have been found dead from “falling in the stairs”.
The Nulla Corvi has stopped their collaboration with the Ó
Céitinn gang, but they continue collecting. The Nulla Corvi
will certainly try and find some courageous party to stop this
problem that tarnishes their reputation.</li>
<li>The inhuman strenght that the mecanical arms of the Ordo Mechanica can give you is impressive. A band of ruffians attacked one of the modified dockers on a foggy night and he defended himself, opening the ribcage of one of the attackers. All others good-for-nothing fled on the spot, chased by the docker. Once the runners arrived on the scene of the battle, the heart of the dead bandit had been surgically removed by a third party, but the docker had nothing to do with it</li>
<li>There a lot of giant rats under London, quite a lot of them being Zoogs. There are dangerous enough as it is, but they don't ride crocodiles. But a swimming Zoog might be confused with a crocodile in the darkness of a sewer...</li>
<li>This was a common misconception back then that the smell was responsible for getting sick, when it's actually the lack of hygiene that is the real prick</li>
<li>George IV was hated by his population. His rule was a bit ruthless, he lived in an indecent comfort and had a dissolute way of life (Partying and women, mostly). The quite biggot population of the Regency Era could not stand his way of life, but loved his wife and daughter, who were behaving a lot more within the society standards of the era. But retrospectively, his results are not bad: Under his rule (and under the regency where minister had a lot of power), the kindom developped to an impressive world power, improving it's colonial grasp on the world (which is nowadays a politically difficult subject, but was considered very positively back then) and allowing the industrial revolution. The kingdom could have done worse economically but his way of life was considered a problem and he was therefore never a popular King/Regent.</li>
<li>Last week, Sir Charles Wale KCB of the Royal York Rangers (a distinct member of the Hospitaller of Dunwich) was assaulted in Thrawl Street while searching for the "Heart of Coal" , a relic from a peat swamp (arcana) and could only defend himself by casting a "Rain of Gore"-miracle. His attackers remain unknown, but are sure not to try again soon, happy to have survived an actual "miracle".</li>
<li>A very enterprising chemist and his crew could try and contact the Committee of Secret Correspondence and sell them black powder or food for the fleet. Such deadlings would be very lucrative, but also very dangerous, the crown threading not lightly around traitors.</li>
<li>That Prophet is known as the Fisher. This rumor is a reference to the adventure present in the french <a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/ITO-kit_de_demo.pdf" target="_blank">Into the Odd introductory Kit</a></li>
<li>This is a reference to the fact that a lot of people in Katzenjammer are transformed into Zoogs, eaten/killed by zoogs, and a lot of Isfet and cats disappeared. This is a reference to the introdution of the mini-campaign "Into the Cave" developped for the crowdfunding for the french version of Into The Odd (<a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/IntoTheCave1.pdf" target="_blank">Episode 1</a>, <a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/IntoTheCave2.pdf" target="_blank">Episode 2</a>, <a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/IntoTheCave3.pdf" target="_blank">Episode 3</a> & <a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/IntoTheCave4.pdf" target="_blank">Episode 4</a>)</li>
<li>Dr. Reginald Malt is part of the <a href="https://intolondon1814.blogspot.com/2018/08/ordo-mechanicus.html" target="_blank">Ordo Mechanicus</a></li>
<li>The Yorkshire Witch was a female murderer whose Modus Operandi was to seek employment and poison its "masters" and rob them dry of all their possessions. The bounty for her identification is of 1£ and her capture 1.5£ on top of the identification. It would be a shame if one of your players was identified as the Witch "by error"</li>
<li>The Ó Céitinn gang is a lawless band of ruffians, that not only recovered missed payments from the people cured by the Nulla Corvi, but also extorts racketing money from the poor population of Whitechapel ("it would be a shame if the house of your neighbours would burn down, bringing yours down in the process") and lately started to target the families of the persons cured by the pest doctors. The Nulla Corvi did cut them off, but they continue "collecting" the money. A participation to the collected money is offered for any party getting rid of them in the Name of the Nulla Corvi (treat it as a D4 enterprise)</li>
<li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89tienne_Vig%C3%A9e" target="_blank">Louis-Jean-Baptiste-Étienne Vigée</a> is a french playwright, in short exile in London fleeing from Girondist persecution in France. As a supporter of Napoleon, his political views are unpopular in the literary salons of the City, but his wit and word skills are highly regarded. His mother was a friend of Lord Byron. He's not a spy in my campaign, but a false trail. But you can do what you want with him, he's long dead anyway.</li>
<li>The frost fair on the Thames is an incredibly Odd place to use for a scene or adventure. I recommend watching <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thin_Ice_(Doctor_Who)" target="_blank">Thin Ice</a>, the 3rd episode of the 10 Season of the new Doctor Who series which takes place 1814 at the last great frost fair in London. This kind of fairs are back then full of con artists, pickpockets and other unsavory characters. One band of pickpocket is particularly well organised, but they have no affiliation with <a href="https://intolondon1814.blogspot.com/2018/08/catacomb-runners.html" target="_blank">Mama Browny and her Catacomb Runners</a></li>
<li>Oroku Nagi is a shinobi Master training the <a href="https://intolondon1814.blogspot.com/2018/08/sons-of-piper.html" target="_blank">Sons of piper</a> in the art of silent deplacement and soundless assassination. Dorian Conywood was one of his most promising students, but I discovered the ploy to create a Zoog army. He didn't want to be part rodent, therefore he defected. His old master hunts him since, but since he could not find his trace, he put a bounty on his ex-student's head. In my campaign, I consider Dorian to be one of the good guys, that was mislead by the <a href="https://intolondon1814.blogspot.com/2018/08/sons-of-piper.html" target="_blank">Sons of piper</a></li>
<li>The bored kid did hit Dr. Michael Finley Barlow, a member of Nulla Corvi that was using his Arcana to fly a patient needing help on the other side of the Thames. the Raven Doctor survived the hit, the fall into the dirty Thames, and the temperature shock, and was quickly fished out of the River. A generous Pound offered to the rescuing fishers help them "forget" the fact that there was no bridge around where he could have fallen from.</li>
<li>The green Toucan is a Pub that is used by high ranking members of the <a href="https://intolondon1814.blogspot.com/2018/08/sons-of-piper.html" target="_blank">Sons of piper</a> (Sean Devlin is a recurent guest). Brychan Gwynn, The bartender and owner of this "fine establishment", a man convicted for Anarchy under another name 10 years ago in Cardiff, is a general in the Zoog army, and he will pay a bounty of 1 Shilling for every cat head that is brought to him. He will even pay 5 Shilling if it can be proved that it was an Isfet's and not only a cat's head. This is also a reference to the mini-campaign "Into the Cave" developped for the french version of Into The Odd (<a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/IntoTheCave1.pdf" target="_blank">Episode 1</a>, <a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/IntoTheCave2.pdf" target="_blank">Episode 2</a>, <a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/IntoTheCave3.pdf" target="_blank">Episode 3</a> & <a href="http://www.les12singes.com/bonus/IntoTheCave4.pdf" target="_blank">Episode 4</a>)</li>

<span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Population information shapes how a city looks: 1814, London is growing. A lot.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">From just under a million in 1801, the population of London booms to 1,3 millions in 1811 (Greater London area).</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Increase the population of any city by ~20% within a decade: there are bound to be problems, scarcity of living quarters, high rental prices, and infrastructure cannot be build quickly enough to support the influx of arriving population.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The 19th century is also the time of the beginning of the industrialisation: not only housing projects are being built, but also production plants. Not all industrial barons built housing for their workers, and not all workers want to live in a building owned by their boss.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">So, good housing is scarce (most people live in very cramped situations), commercial housing also.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">That’s why a lot of people work on the street (which is considered normal), and seldom spend time at home, apart from meals and sleep. Children play on the street and that’s viewed as normal too.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">A lot of the newcomers in London are from the rural areas of Great britain. You can certainly find people from all over them empire in London, but the biggest group among the immigrant population are, by far, the Irish.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sure, a native-american, a french-cajun, an ex-slave from african descent (esclavage was abolished 1807 by the the Slave Trade Act in the empire) are an odder sight, but most people in London will associate migrants with “Micks” (derogatory term for the irish, apparently all named “Michael”).</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">1814, roads and streets in London are a mess: </span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The parishes were responsible for their maintenance, there was no money for the work, so once a year, a “voluntary” reviewed the streets, on top of his normal job, with nearly no pay. Be sure he did an appropriate work (this can be compared to the work every citizen has to do in the Watch).</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The street and roads in and around the other bigger cities (like Liverpool) were in better shape than London’s, which first started to use the McAdam process of road building in 1815.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The easiest way to get goods into the city was by waterways, the Thames or a canal (at Brentford).</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Fish from the North Sea was transported by horse pack train, even though it was quickly perishable, at about the same speed as back when the romans ruled over the island.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">But once the goods had arrived on the granite docks, bringing the goods within London was a big challenge: potholes, treacherous mud pools, narrow streets, too high loads for the street and the axles of the carts were daily hassles.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The paved streets themselves were muddy and stinking. The rudimentary sewer system was only used to drain the rain water, and everything landed, in the end, in the Thames, which was a stinking hell, full of detritus, garbage, animal carcasses, and even corpses. The banks of the River are a must every morning for corpses robber, and the Bow Street runners a few minutes later.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">As said before, the sewer system back in 1814 is only meant to drain the rain water. Every building in London has it’s own “cesspool”, ideally in the garden around back, but often in the basement. “Cesspools were built to be porous so the liquid part of the waste was meant to seep away into the ground. There was no knowledge of bacteriological contamination, although there was plenty of it happening. Nevertheless, you had this residue of solid matter left and it was removed by so-called ‘night soil men.’" (<a href="https://www.npr.org/2015/03/12/392332431/dirty-old-london-a-history-of-the-victorians-infamous-filth" target="_blank">Dirty Old London, The Victorian Fight Against Filth by Lee Jackson</a>)</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">At least, human feces did not land on the streets, but horse dung, mud, and rain were enough to make the london streets a slippery stinky slop, in which you’d better be in a cart, on a horse, or at least wearing good boots.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">By law, the ‘night soil men’ had to work at night (because of the unbearable stink - and the societal taboo around toilets) but could make a good living out of the residue, selling them as fertilizer to farms in the countryside around London.</span></div>

Dear Diary,<br />
Traveling by yourself and exploring the word alone are bad decisions. A small group of motivated individuals (the PCs) has definitely a better survival chance than a lonely individual.<br />
But recruiting “small hands”, like torchbearers, informers, people on the lookout, or shadowing on your behalf, can give you a definitve advantage.<br />
Sure, you will have to pay them a few shillings and they might not be very loyal and certainly won’t risk their life for you.<br />
But once you’ve earned their trust, they might really come in handy.<br />
<br />

In the 1800ies, the social system is not a welfare state. If you’re unlucky enough to be born into the lower class, you’ll have to go work early as a child, sometimes as early as 8 years old. If you’re really unlucky, your parents died at work, during childbirth, or succumb of one of the random infections that plague the insalubrious poor neighbourhoods, that have been quickly built to house the influx of people leaving the campaigns for the towns.<br />
Those unluckiest children tend to gather in small bands living on the streets, begging, stealing and getting by on any opportunity.<br />
<br />
You, as an adventurer, are such an opportunity. And these kids are also an interesting ressource for you.<br />
These characters need to be 3 things: helpful, memorable, and odd.<br />
Helpful is easy, they only need to do what you expect them to do without whining.<br />
Memorable is trickier: you need at least a name and something special. An accent, a strange habit, a peculiar physical trait.<br />
Odd is in the name of the game, so it’s important too. Furthermore, it makes Characters more memorable.<br />
<br />

<br />
There are a few interesting rules in Into The ODD.
One of them is : “Everything is complicated”, the important sub point here being “Nobody knows who rules”.<br />
So the law in Into London 1814 cannot just mirror exactly our London in 1814. That would still be odd for us (i’ll come to that point again later), but not the exact kind of odd we want for this game.<br />
<br />
<h3>
History: </h3>
1814 in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland is a troubled time. The kingdom is at war, not only against its former overseas colonies, the newly formed United States of America, but also Napoleonic France.<br />
The War of 1812 (1812 - 1815) against the United States can be seen as part of the napoleonic wars, since the United States considered the continental blocus as illegal and therefore went to war. This was also a war at the border of British Canada and the United States. The Brits weaponed the native tribes, slowing the expansion westwards of the United States. At the same time, it is said the Yankees went to war with the possible intent to annex British Columbia.<br />
In the end, the Treaty of Ghent is a big deal, that is being negotiated during 1814, and all parties want to come on top, so any big victories during the negotiations can be used to claim more than the day before. If my players don’t screw it up one way or another, it will end with a status quo ante bellum, back to situation before the war.<br />
This two wars have an influence on the population of London:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Taxes are high, resulting in more poverty </li>
<li>There is a shortage of male workers (but nobody would trust a women for certain jobs anyway, back then - something you can change in your game, if you want), particularly those able to sail and fight.</li>
<li>Certain products are scarce, because of the war and the blocus and their influence onto international trade (Fur, leather and cotton prices are much higher for example, which has a repercussion on the price of all clothing) </li>
</ul>
<h3>
Police: </h3>
The Bow street runners (created 1749) are historically the first professional police force in the United Kingdom. They work directly under the Bow street magistrates and are few and far between (my research says around 70-100 members, and their jurisdiction spans the whole London metropolitan area and the roads around).<br />
Up to their creation, there were 3 forces for justice:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>The night watch and the constables </li>
<li>The Army </li>
<li>The private citizen </li>
</ul>
<br />
Traditionally, all householder were supposed to police the streets (as part of the watch), and every citizen had to report and capture anyone they saw committing a felony. If someone shouted “Thief” in a crowd, everyone was supposed to help catching the criminal.<br />
They had a good reason to do so: there was a reward for the capture of the villain. This is how the “Thief-Takers” came into life, a kind of bounty hunters who received a (quite handsome) sum of money for the conviction of all kinds of criminals but in particular highway robbers. The private persons also used them to broker a sum to buy back their stolen stuff. As you can imagine, such persons were of low morals and reputation, only tolerated thanks to the results they brought.<br />
The night watch was composed of civilians (all householders) under the supervision of constables. There was originally no salary for watchmen, but around 1800, all were paid for their duty by their parish.<br />
There were also “private watches” for example to patrol on the private roads, where you paid a toll to use. Another example is the West India Merchants Committee, which funded in 1798 a Marine Police Office to protect their assets in the Port of London.<br />
But the main reason of being of the watch, was not to detect crimes but to prevent crimes, their sheer presence in the streets at night acting as a deterrent.
Constables were taking orders from the magistrates, organising the watch and executing arrest orders. They had very loose limitations on whom they could arrest and what for, so their power for nuisance was very high (they could let you spent a day in jail for a minor offence like swearing or acting “disorderly”).<br />
The army was only dispatched by order of the king (or someone high up) for really important criminals or in the case of a riot.<br />
<br />
<h3>
What is to different with the Runners, then? </h3>
Well, their work happened after a crime, which they investigated. You could go to them and they would do what we understand nowadays under “police work”. Their focus was on highway robbers and major crimes. And some of them were mounted (about two dozen runners were actually riders).<br />
In 1792, offices like the Bow Street runners were created across the metropolis, each staffed by three paid magistrates and up to six paid officers or constables.<br />
Bow Street remained the first and most distinguished but you could find such Police Offices at <b>Queen's Square</b> (<i>Westminster</i>), <b>Great Marlborough Street</b> (<i>Westminster</i>), <b>Worship Street</b> (<i>Shoreditch</i>), <b>Lambeth Street</b> (<i>Whitechapel</i>), <b>Shadwell</b>, <b>Union Hall</b> (<i>Southwark</i>) and <b>Hatton Garden</b>. There was also a <b>river police</b> (<i>Thames Police Office</i> - created at Wapping in 1798).<br />
Although the situation saw betterment from the beginning of the 1800ies, a lot of corruption plagued these institutions and forces.<br />

<h3>
What about a peek into the law, but oddified ? </h3>
Well, the law by then is very strange for us:<br />
There were a lot of victimless crimes, motivated more by religious belief than by presenting a danger to society. Drunkenness on the street, swearing, vagrancy, disorderly behaviour, or nightwalking were all reasons to get arrested and fined<br />
The main reason for the watch was not to act on criminal activities but to deter would-be villains to commit crimes.<br />
What we would call “Civilian arrests” were not the exception, but happened everyday and often on fallacious reasons. Most officers of the law (including the magistrates) were corrupt<br />
So, i don’t think we have to oddify the law much.<br />

Remember, none of this offences have to be true and a magistrate will in the end decide if the arrested person needs to be convicted and what is the sentence.<br />
The fine in the table are guidelines. Paying directly the "runner" will normally not lead to a process.<br />

After all, <b>Into the ODD</b> is an OSR game.<br />
I don't need per se a hexmap for exploration, but i found one (actually someone sent me a link, blessed thy your name!), so I will use it 😊.<br />
For me <i>Whitechapel </i>is situated in the south west of <i>Bethnal Green</i> (Maybe i'll make myself an inner map of Hex 2)<br />

But I can understand that this approximation in not good enough for the taste of all ODD masters, so I'll thank <b>John Leighton</b> again for his work (posthumously, R.I.P., John) and post another map from his book (and thank the British Library for releasing this on flickr)<br />

As you can see, directly east to the city is <i>Whitechapel</i>, the rough neighbourhood where I intend to play.<br />
Why you'd ask?<br />
Well, for a few reasons:<br />
<ul>
<li>It's a very poor district, with a lot of whorehouses, bars, criminals, and people ready to do anything to survive</li>
<li>Its name is anchored with "<b>Jack the Ripper</b>". Even though good old Jack won't be active there for a good 70 years, I'm willing to bet my players will think of him and always wonder if I'll introduce him sometime along the way (with a story like <b>Eugene Victor Tooms</b>' in <i>X-files</i>, for example, that would be possible and ODD enough)</li>
<li>It borders on the <i>Thames</i>. I need <u>shipyards </u>and <u>warehouses </u>for some of the stories I want to run</li>
<li>It is not in the centre of the city, but still near enough to be smoggy, urban, and polluted.</li>
</ul>

<h3>
Short version:</h3>
<b>Transhumanist scientist - replace limbs with metal - arcanengineers - mercenaries</b><br />
<u>Leader </u>: <b>Maximilian Trevithick</b> (son of the inventor of the steam locomotive)<br />
<u>Goal</u>: Find a to replace limbs with motorised mobile prosthetics<br />
<u>Dramatis Personae</u>: <b>Hellukas Tornquist</b> (dwarf engineer from Scafell Pike), <b>Dr. Reginald Malt</b> (surgeon)<br />
<u>Peculiarities</u>: All member have at least one limb replaced by steel, a weapon or a steam machine<br />
<u>Secret</u>: Their main surgeon (<b>Dr. Reginald Malt</b>) uses an arcanum to implement the Steel and have the body accept the graft. Without that arcanum, no graft would work. Every month of the first year, each graft must be re-arcaned by the good doctor<br />
<br />
<h3>
Long version:</h3>
The <b>Ordo Mechanicus</b> is on one hand a society of crazy scientists, doctors and engineers, but on the other side also a very effective mercenary group.<br />
Their <i>Steel-body-modifications</i> give them an edge in hand to hand combat, but also intimidate a lot. You don’t react the same to a guy wearing a mallet and another one who has a freaking big Hammer replacing his left forearm.<br />
The <b>Ordo Mechanicus</b> is organised as a <i>Guild</i>, offering a range of product and services reaching from farrier work to precision machining over clockwork commissioning and including debt retrieval and other mercenary work. The guild share of the incomes is invested in mechanical research (including the acquisition of metal and forging tool or even foundries) and <i>retrieval of arcana</i>.<br />
<b>Maximilian Trevithick</b> is a very young and enthusiastic leader and the <b>Ordo Mechanicus</b> is always in movement, always researching new technologies, new ways to combine knowledge, new experiences. All the money of the guild goes to projects. Their few buildings are always very <i>spartan </i>and <i>functional</i>, dedicated to one of the activities of the guild (smith, foundry, operating room, laboratory, factory)<br />
<b>Hellukas Tornquist</b> is the main precision smith of the guild, and a repository of ancient dwarven smithing handcraft. He is well respected in his home community of <b>Scafell Pike</b> in <i>Cumbria</i>, even though he left. He is the point of entry for all dwarves in search of adventure in the “<b>The Big Smoke</b>”, and most of them end up working, one way or another, for the <b>Ordo Mechanicus</b>. He is renown for his precision handiwork and the finery of the engravings he can add to a metal piece. He likes to add dwarven runes on the objects he smithes, but no one knows if these are magic or not (<b>Hellukas </b>always says “<i>If you can’t make the runes work, then it is as if it were not enchanted, you human moron!</i>”)<br />
<b>Non-dwarves</b> in the guild all have at least on prosthetic enhancement. Most were recruited coming back from a war (against the U.S. or Napoleonic France) and having lost everything, and giving them the missing leg or lost hand back, as well as a new purpose in life, is normally enough to ensure a perfect loyalty to the guild. The <b>fear to lose the replaced limb</b> if it is not tended for by the “<i>good doctor</i>” is also a good reason to stay in the guild.<br />
<b>Dr. Reginald Malt</b> is not only the main surgeon of the guild, he’s the only reason why the steel stays attached to the bodies of his patients.<br />
He was his first patient himself and implanted on his left hand 8 <i>razorblades</i>, mobile and articulated, to replace the missing phalanges that he had lost to a cannon ball in the Caribbeans. He is unbelievably nimble and precise with theses claw-like blades. He wears some caps on them when in society, where he seldom take of his gloves anyway.<br />
His <i>razor-hand</i> was developed by <b>Maximilian Trevithick</b>, the engineer and leader of the group and forged by <b>Hellukas</b>.<br />
<b>Maximilian</b> on his side is more of a founder of the guild than a real leader. He has the power to veto any project or research topic, but has never used that power, on the contrary… He tends to add new side-projects and research goal, with a higher stipend than was asked for, on the condition that the development belongs to the guild and that it has practical uses. This is the reason why the prosthetics of the <b>Ordo Mechanicus</b> are highly advanced: this is the main research field that interests <b>Maximilian</b>, and if a research grant is allowed, he makes sure that at least one of the research goals, even a secondary one, is related to “<i>Body Betterment Through Steel, Clockwork, And Steam</i>” (which is the motto of the Guild).<br />
When not working, members can be found in public places (taverns, speaking corners) ranting about the future of the flesh and it’s replacement with Steel…<br />

<br />
<h3>
Long version:</h3>
<br />
The <b>Princess Charlotte of Wales</b> lives a double life. Publicly, she is the only really loved person from the royal family, since she doesn’t take part in the politics of the empire (at least not openly). Secretly, she leads the <b>Nulla Corvi</b>, an organisation that wants to transform the Empire into a Meritocracy, where (theoretically) only what you achieved determines your worth, not your birth.<br />
Only the highest ranks in the <b>Nulla Corvi</b> know that their leader, the <b>Archmage Corvidae</b> is a woman. Only a handful have seen her without her Raven Mask and recognised as the Princess of Wales.<br />
The <b>Nulla Corvi</b> has revolutionary ambitions. Since their goal is to put Money in the centre of the societal order, they prepare for this. <b>Corvidae </b>is very idealistic in this for a few reasons: she hates the fact that her male relatives exert and abuse power without qualification and thinks that everyone should have the chance to work hard and achieve something, if they are intelligent and cunning enough. The <b>Nulla Corvi</b> wants a soft revolution, with no blood bath, but still publish a lot of pamphlets (in newspapers but also on flyers - they also constrain insolvent ex-patients to make public mouth propaganda for their cause for the relief of one week of payment, to reach the portion of the population that can’t read).<br />
While seeming philanthropic in nature, healing anybody who needs their medical expertise, the small payments they ask are for life and add to a lot in the end. The placebo they distribute is to keep the ex-patients in the belief that they would die, if they stop paying. If someone is not able to make payment, they have to work for it (using their influence, skills or labour for the cause of the <b>Nulla Corvi</b>).<br />
The <b>Nulla Corvi</b> doctors heal everyone, to the best of their knowledge and with the premise of modern medicine, and actually have very good recovery rates. The surely earn more healing the rich, but healing the poor is also a chance to test new remedies. They do not treat wounds, unless it’s an infection.<br />
The doctors always wear the raven masks to stay unrecognised. Every borough has at least one <b>pharmacy </b>where you can contact the Nulla Corvi if you or a relative needs help. They appear before your door and disappear afterwards. This is the place where you have to pay your weekly dues too. If you miss a few payments, be prepared to receive the visit of a few unfriendly and brawny raven-mask wearers that accompany a more sensitive member who can cut a deal for the due money.<br />
A lot of the members of the Nulla Corvi are doctors or doctors in training, pharmacists, alchemist and other learned persons. The money collected is halved between the doctors and the organisation which uses this money to train new doctors, research and develop new remedies and build new arcana for the doctors.<br />
A lot of members from the <b>Nulla Corvi</b> receive training in the <i>arcane arts</i> too. They have found out that they can build an arcanum “in series” and outfit their members with these dreamcatchers. <b>Richard Hodgkin</b>, an anthropologist, doctor, adventurer and arcanist learnt some esoteric secrets and became a medicine man of the <b>Nahanni tribe</b> in <i>British Columbia</i>. Once back in England, he was able to contact the Spirit of the Great Raven and make a pact with him, granting him the possibility to create arcana based on the feathers of common raven, in exchange for blood from the royal Family. <b>Hodgkin </b>and the <b>Princess </b>work together on creating as much dreamcatchers as possible, drawing as much blood from the Princess without danger for her health (which is the reason for her very pale complexion)<br />
<b>Sir Humphry Davy, 1st Baronet</b> leads the “<i>Nulla Corvi Collegium</i>” which is a beacon of modern science and medicine and probably the best medicine school of the world, but is rather unorthodox and secret.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Arcana:</h3>
<u>Dreamcatcher of the Great Raven</u>:<br />
Allows the caster to transform into a raven (each use cost 1 PV) until the arcanist wants to reverse to his original form or the raven drops to 0 HP. The caster retains his DEX and WILL in raven form but goes to STR 3 and 1 HP (so 4 Damages kills the caster instantly). All attacks against a arcane raven that is aware of the danger are impaired.<br />
If the arcanist reverts to his human form in-flight (probably not willingly), he suffers D8 damage on landing or D4 if landing softly (hay ball, water, etc.)<br />
<br />
<u>Cape of Ravenkind</u> (only 7 existing):<br />
Allows the caster to teleport from one shadow to another one in unaided sight. The caster loses 1D6 Will and a black raven feather drops to the ground in the starting shadow for each lost point.<br />
Gives 1 point of armour<br />
<br />

Pest mask - long coat - bag full of medical supplies<br />
WILL 15 - 6HP<br />

<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Long version:</span></span></h3>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><b>Zoogs </b>are evil. The transformation into a <b>zoog </b>is very destructive for a human mind and those that survive the change loose most of their social skills. Most become functional sociopaths with a whole lot of hatred for society. They tend to find a sense of usefulness while bonding with communities of other zoogs, the only other being that seem to understand them. Only kids minds tend to stay mostly unharmed by the transformation/infection process. That is the reason why the transformed <i>Catacomb Runners</i> and the <i>Sons of the Piper</i> don’t mingle much.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Their society is build around the number 5, which each cell in a cluster having 5 members, each cluster 5 cells and so on, up to Sean Devlin and his entourage. Each group has an alpha, a beta, a neutral, a worker and a scapegoat. Scapegoats tend to be changed a lot in groups, and each time, all members need to redefine their place in the group, in a nearly constant power fight, or better said competitive stance.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><b style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sean Devlin</b><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"> was born in Ireland and adopted quite early an anti-Napoleonic stance. After a wound during the battle of </span><i style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Basse-Terre</i><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"> (Guadeloupe - 1809), he was sent back to England. By then, his sentiment toward napoleon was very extreme and he accepted to be part in an experiment “That would save the Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland” and “make the french bastards drown in their own bodily fluids”.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">There, doctors experimented with Tuberculosis, pest and cholera, and how to contain the spread of the infections, to use the diseases as weapons on the continent.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">They have found a way to make people resistant to the affliction, while still carry the plague with them and spread it… For that, they used an odd discovery: a creature from another time and space that spoke of his home town of <i>Skavenblight </i>and his God and Master, <b>Malal „the horned rat“</b>. Long time, <b>Sean Devlin</b> and <b>Zoog </b>(that was his name) were in contact and the only person they had contact with was each other.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">When <b>Sean </b>was “rescued” by his old comrades, they killed the “Abomination”. <b>Sean </b>now hates the crown for what he has become and wants to destroy all warmongers and all human society…</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sean has build up some relations with the <i>Committee of Secret Correspondence</i>, an U.S. diplomats and spies ring. His willingness to harm the crown is much welcome and they help him as good as secrecy allows. <b>Sean</b>’s plan is to continue his destruction of society in the united states once Britain and the continent are plagued. He wants to send some well adjusted cells to “<i>the colonies</i>”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">At the same time, he uses a lot of his resources to discover the path to <i>Skavenblight </i>that <b>Zoog </b>had taken to come to <i>Hopesend</i>, before he was captured and brought to <i>28 Leicester Square</i>, the research center located under a pub in <i>Soho</i>.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The <i>Sons of the Piper</i> offer a bounty of one Shilling for the head of each cat and spread the rumour that the “<i>filthy cats</i>” spread “<i>diseases, curses, and plagues</i>”. At the same time, they swarm the boroughs where they have a presence. Those boroughs are hit badly by epidemics.
They work as mercenaries, letting cells accept contracts. They use the metings with their employers to infect them (spoiling their drinks for example)</span></span><br />

Short version:</h3>
<b><br /></b>
<b>Street Children - Thieves/Smuggler - Zoogs</b><br />
<u>Leader</u>: <b>Kavzar </b>(Adult transformed into Zoog by bite) / <b>Dr Charles Jekyll</b><br />
<u>Goal</u>: Open an orphanage for poor children -> transform them in Zoogs<br />
<u>Allied with</u>: Sons of the rat god<br />
<u>Dramatis Personae</u>: Duel-master: <b>Captain James Macnamara</b> & <b>Mama Browny</b> (16y.o. Mestiza)<br />
<u>Peculiarities</u>: Spy & deliver material and messages to the highest bidder (lots of kids in the streets - they are practically invisible in the masses)<br />
<u>Secret</u>: Mr <b>Charles Jekyll</b> doesn't mean anything bad for the kids. Only <b>Kavzar</b>, his zoog alter ego, wants to convert the kids to build an army. Furthermore, nobody knows that zoogs exist.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Long version:</h3>
<br />
These are the poorest souls of London. They live by themselves, trying to get by on a day to day basis, not having a childhood at all.<br />
But the smartest of them have been recruited into the catacomb runners for a roof over their head at night and a guaranteed meal every day.<br />
For that, they have to learn to use the catacombs and sewer system to get everywhere unnoticed within London. They work as couriers and smugglers. The contracts are handled by <b>Mama Browny</b> and half the money is collected by <b>Dr Jekyll</b> to invest in an Orphanage (which is already in construction).<br />
<b>Mama Browny</b> is the real front person of the organization. She doesn't know anything about the zoogs (these are humanoid giants rats, as long as they are underground)<br />
<b>Captain James Macnamara</b> is their protector. If anybody harms one of the kids, they have to report it to <b>Mama Browny</b>. The unsavory character will have to answer for his acts. If James deems them guilty of misconduct against an orphan, he will challenge them to a duel (and he is a very deadly fellow)<br />
On his side, <b>Dr Jekyll</b> petitions the government and the royalty to create an institution for street children, with not a lot of success, apart from building his own orphanage.<br />
To contact the catacomb runners, you have to ask a street kid when his last meal was. If the kids answers "yesterday when the 3rd bell chimed", you have to offer him a loaf of bread. The kid will then arrange a meeting with Mama Browny in a neutral area.<br />
Their alliance with the <b>sons of the rat god</b> is more a non aggression pact than a real alliance. If they meet in the catacombs or sewers, they will try to look the other way as much as possible.<br />
Only a few kids have already been transformed in Zoogs<br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Hospitallers are good men but are lured by an old entity to do unspeakable acts in the name of what they believe to be Jesus Christ. They search for arcana of all kind, collecting them at all costs, to study them and find a solution to the imminent destruction of their All Saints' Church in Dunwich. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Their normal Modus Operandi is to detect an arcanum, contact it's owner, make a fair offer for it, take it by force if the owner is not willing to make the trade (theft or outright murder, depending on the case)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Their Leader is <b>William Pitt, 3rd Earl of Chatham</b>, who is a member of the House of Peers. He has a lot of influence on the judiciary system.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
The <i>Oeconomicis Magnus</i> of the group (brother in charge of finance & treasury) is <b>Sergei Saltykov</b>, an important russian noble on a diplomatic mission in London (<b>Napoleon</b> needs to be crushed).</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The lower Brothers are mostly from noble extraction but they left their families as they joined the Order. Some might still be in good terms and obtain favours from their Family, though...</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The version of their New Testament is holy to them, a kind of relic, and does not really stand in contradiction to the bible. It only states that the body of Christ is entombed in the <i>Dunwich Church</i> (which will historically collapse into the north sea between 1904 and 1919) and contains 2 "miracles" that are described just afterwards.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span>

<h3>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Miracles:</span></span></h3>
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><u>Bloodbond</u>: allows the caster to open his veins to transfer his life-force into a wounded and willing target. The ritual is very gruesome since a lot of blood is exchanged, but the blood seems to be very dark. The wounds closed with this ritual always generate black scars.
(Caster loses 1D6 STR to restore that same amount in hit points)</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><u>Rain of Gore</u>: can only be used in the open. Suddenly, it starts raining blood. The smell is very metallic and nauseating. All animals (do not forget the varmint) flee the site. The ground on which the blood rained is poisoned for weeks ans all plants that were growing on it wither. The stench is horrible and the scene seems haunted.</span>
<br /><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">(all in the area must make a Will save or panicky flee on the spot. Those staying must make a STR save or take 1D4 damage and lose their last meal)</span></span></li>

Dear Diary,</h3>
<br />
What kind of odd creatures will the characters be confronted with?<br />
Will they be friends, allies, or enemies ?<br />
<br />
<br />
Here a list of list of the factions in Whitechapel for <b>Into London</b>:<br />
<br />
I use a 2Dx result for the random encounters, so that the <i>average </i>results are encountered more often. With this I try to emulate the fact that this is a very big faction or that this faction is on it's home turf.<br />

Dear diary,</h3>
<br />
Today I decided that I would share my work with you.<br />
<br />
Which work?<br />
Well I'm glad you asked: I'm working on a new campaign. It's a sandbox set in London 1814, like in the series <b>Taboo</b> for visual references, but with all the weird oddities from <b>Into the Odd</b>.<br />
<br />
I'll try to stick as little to historic reality as possible, to make the <i>weird </i>aspect come out as much as possible and keep the uncertainty-level of the game as high as possible.<br />
This is supposed to be <b>ODD</b>, and i'll try to remember it.
<br />
