Description:
“The Powers sent me to the Gorkhon under special orders. The goal: to stop the epidemic that had broken out in a small town of cattle herders. Status four, a potential pandemic. They even set a deadline, it all had to be done in twelve days. A death sentence, that’s what it was.
On arrival I followed standard procedure and discovered a few key figures:Daniil Dankovsky, a Bachelor of Medicine. A thanatologist from the Capital. He studies death. A rational, logical thinker.
Artemy Burakh, a local man. He had gone away to study medicine, came back later. His approach was rooted in the local tradition of the steppe people.
Then there was a random beggar called Clara. She expressed obvious conditions (bioenergetic manipulation, extrasensory powers). I didn’t take her seriously at first, but rectified my mistake quickly.
With them the Town-on-Gorkhon had a chance to survive.”
From the statement of Aglaya Lilich, state inquisitor, received under interrogation
The players find themselves trapped in the beginning of epidemic in a remote steppe town.
The main common goal is to save the town and its people, but you will soon find out that town, its people and the plague itself are very mysterious and you need to find answers to save it and make your ambitions a reality.
Despite the fact that campaign is based on “Pathologic” game series, the huge part of entertainment in campaign is based around discovering what’s going on, so not having knowledge about the game is recommended.
