The Covenant of Roughtop Tor

A Freeform Mystery of Magic, Betrayal, and the Unknown

Deep in the heart of Dartmoor, where the mist clings to the craggy peaks and the standing stones whisper to the wind, stands the Covenant of Roughtop Tor—a place of ancient magic and dangerous secrets. For centuries, it has been home to some of the greatest minds in the Order of Hermes, a sanctuary for scholars and seekers of hidden knowledge.

But something is wrong.

Two months ago, Septimus of Bonisagus disappeared while investigating an ancient Roman ruin beneath the tor. Now, he has returned, but something about him is... different. He cannot remember where he has been. He is not the only one who is uneasy. A shadow looms over the covenant—strange omens, missing magi, and the creeping influence of a power long thought buried.

As the Midsummer Moot approaches, tensions within the Order threaten to tear Roughtop Tor apart. House Tremere seeks to claim the covenant for their own. A murder may have already been committed. And beneath the tor, something stirs, waiting to be found—or to wake.

This is a tale of intrigue, romance, and the supernatural, where no one is without secrets, and not all of them are human.

Who Will You Be?

A Magus battling for the future of the covenant, unlocking lost secrets—or keeping them buried.

An Apprentice or Redcap, caught in a web of deception, with everything to lose.

A Grog or Servant, guarding knowledge best left forgotten—or whispering in the wrong ears.

The Covenant Stands on the Brink.

By sunrise, everything will change. What will be your place in the story?
