Shadows Over Scotland Handout 2. Lucy Siddons’s Diary I don , t know what to do or who to talk to. I cannae go home. I cannae leave Arkwright House. I , m terrified Sir Gregory and the others will notice. Am I really trapped?, I broke down today before Mrs Geddes. I don , t know how, but I had to tell someone, and she , s always been so good to me. She , s promised not to tell Sir Gregory. Thank God! And she understands about my family and said that she would try to help. I only hope she can. The baby is starting to show more and more. I don , t know what to do. I caught Sir Gregory and that doctor looking at me queerly today. I almost ran from the room. I , ve got to do something. But what? What? Handout 3. Note in Lucy Siddons’s Room 4
Handout 4. Ghoulish spell ‘The Voyagers’ Song’ -The Voyagers’ Song- By means of this spell, every ghoul within a twomile radius will be magically transported to the Dreamlands. The spell creates a vast shimmering globe of power to extend out from the caster(s) for two miles in every direction. The spell must be cast out of doors under a night sky. The spell requires 30 magic points—this expense can be shared amongst the casters—and costs each participant 1D3 Sanity points. The ‘song’ must be chanted for twelve minutes as the clock strikes midnight without interruption or the spell will fail. After the twelfth minute, the globe will fade and the ghouls will fade out from our reality and fade into the Dreamlands. The song that must be sung is as follows and should be intoned slowly and deliberately: Uhhrkurg girreggah wuul girreggah Rharrerra fuuhrugg fuuhrugg graowgachar Gur kurreg gur kurreg chrach oorrech Hri ur fechech howuuff grigorr aghourr Handout 6. Cullen’s Laboratory Diary 5.45 am They brought the girl in this morning—or what was left of her. What a blasted mess! But the foetus has provided me with a new source of research. The seat will be found through an examination of variation, yes, but why had I not before considered the usefulness of examining such a thing, a veritable tabula rasa, an unborn babe. This one was damaged. I must have more soon. In addition, I must widen my search for new sources of variation. The answer is near. 10.15 am That damned fool! I should never have trusted that dimwitted dullard! He’d rather rut with whores and throw his money at cards than do the simplest bloody thing right. 5 Handout 5. Werewolves Sighted on the Bridge of Sighs Player Handouts WEREWOLVES SIGHTED ON THE BRIDGE OF SIGHS Three local bakers claim to have seen werewolves running across the Bridge of Sighs on the very night that the maid Lucy Siddons was murdered near Firpark Street. The men, who were walking up Wishart Street on their way to the Cairns Bakery, claim the strange creatures ran in the direction of Glasgow Cathedral and possessed “glinting red eyes and great white teeth”. The three men insist that what they saw “was not human but not animal either”. Glasgow Police, however, believe that the ‘werewolves’ witnessed by the three bakers may in fact have been the killers escaping the scene of Miss Siddons’ murder. The police have asked the public to come forwards with any further information that might help lead to the capture of these cruel fiends. Any information should be sent to Detective Constable McKeegan in Turnbull Street. [Excerpt from the Glasgow Herald] Now Garachar’s gifts are trapped at the docks while I’m left to find an answer to the debacle. The whole affair has gone to Hell, but I must know what Garachar knows. I must have his magics. The bodies must be retrieved. 7.00 pm Black has informed me that Cadden has brought in some investigators to look into the murders. Need to look into this. Nothing must interfere with my experiments. 1.20 am They ask for more. Always more, more! And I must find a way. Black is a moron and Arkwright is useless. So I alone must find a way.
