Dungeon Crawl Classics #82: Bride of the Black Manse (EN) ^ Q3 2025

Centuries ago, Lady Ilse rose to the heir of the Liis house by trading the archdevil Mammon what he desired most: his immortal soul—and a diabolical engagement. The triumph proved hollow, for each year on the eve of her fallen betrothal, she was assailed by visions of Mammon and his vexing promise. Seeking to save herself, she was buried alive, wrapped in the sacred symbols of a dozen divergent faiths. This desperate stratagem kept Mammon at bay for centuries… but a devil can afford to wait a very long time. After hundreds of years, the last of the sacred parishes fell. The devil came to claim his due. Tonight, a storm lashes the ancient manor, and forgotten spirits rise from the mud and mire. The fallen bell tower tolls once more, heralding the infernal feast. As adventurers arrive to explore the Black Manse, Mammon calls to his fair bride. He will leave with a soul by the night’s end. The only question is: Who?
