Kaleidoscope Blue
A downloadable Liminal Horror Module
It's the witching hour. She leans over her balcony smoking a cigarette. Her tired eyes flick around the quiet nightscape outside her apartment, illuminated by the light of a waning moon. Verdant summer leaves glisten with dew, and her cigarette drops four stories to the bushes below.
Nine PM on a Thursday. Club music pushes through the walls of a frat house, colorful lights glancing off the cool surface of a pool. The music becomes clear for a second, then the slam of a door muffles it again. Two young men scramble away from an embrace.
Lunchtime at State Road Elementary. Boys sit at the edge of the woods, children gleefully screaming in the distance. The taste of peanut. Cruel laughter. Tight throat.
Kaleidoscope Blue is a Mystery Module for Liminal Horror. Investigators must travel to the town of Monarch, Kentucky. Once there, they must find the folks that have gone missing, finding the connection between three people with seemingly nothing in common.
Investigators solve the mystery by interacting with 14 detailed NPCs and 12 locations scattered across the town. Track down drug dealers, fish for rumors at the local B&B, and roll on a custom Fallout table, risking falling deeper into the Unknown. The most thorough Investigators may stumble into the vast RESERVOIR, where the shadows of all who have lived float beneath an eldritch ocean, and something massive shifts beneath them.
Inspired by Hummingbird Salamander by Jeff Vandermeer, The Fisherman by John Langan, and my own personal anxiety.
Content Warnings: dead children, drugs, anxiety, familial abuse.
