===Synopsis===
{{spoiler|
A series of horrific murders is currently taking place in the misty and fantastic Dreamlands.  The investigators, either experience or novice dreamers, are contacted by a Captain Hanna who requests their aid.  The heinous acts are being committed by a mad woman known to the inhabitants of Baharna as the Harlot or the Hag; she lives in a gigantic stone edifice on th eside of Mt. Ngranek overlooking the city of Baharna on the island of Oriab.  The Harlot/Hag are actually dream-forms of an aged nun, the sweet Sister Evangeline of Kingsport, who in her dreams lures young men of the city to her shadoy, empty convent where, in the form of the Hag, she slays and mutilates them to help her construct her hideous Golem of Desire.

===Comments===
"And upon her forehead was a name written, Mystery, Babylon the Great, Mother of Harlots and Abominations of the Earth." - Revelations 17:5

New Dreamlands landmarks (High Congress of [[Barharna]], map of the Isle of [[Oriab]], the [[Baharna|Scarlet Witch (pub)]], the far-off Cerenarian seaport city of [[Zais]], the [[Zais|Sky Pirate (tavern)]]).  Some Kingsport landmarks as well ([[Kingsport]] Convent).

Some special rules for Dreaming (how to handle injury, death, and insanity incurred in dream.)

New spells [[Bring Pestilence]], [[Summon Plague]].

The "waking world" elements of the story are assumed to take place in 1920s Kingsport, but could easily be moved in time and space to suit the keeper.
