[quote=The original Lady Afterwards][i]"You’ve been summoned to Alexandria, a city of coloured lights and curious histories. An old friend needs you to track down a woman. She’s probably in trouble. Probably trouble herself. Plus ça change..."[/i][/quote] We're working with the [url=https://mysteriouspackage.com/]Mysterious Package Company[/url] to create a new, extremely high-end Lady Afterwards edition with MPC-level props and accoutrements! MPC are the absolute top of the pile when it comes to making beautiful antique physical items. They usually specialise in Lovecraftian stuff (AK and I bought their [url=https://mysteriouspackage.com/collections/collection-new/products/hastur-new]Hastur experience[/url] years ago, and it was amazing), so [i]The Lady Afterwards[/i] caught their eye. The MPC edition includes everything that's in our [url=https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1033850944/the-lady-afterwards-an-occult-1920s-trpg]original [i]Lady Afterwards[/i] box[/url], but adds an extra layer of high-quality artefact...ry: a custom wooden  chest, hand-aged clues, and a few extras like an antique magnifying glass and silver case with new business cards inside, a Essential Hours [i]and[/i] a full Tarot of the Hours deck...

Something’s in motion, from the Arab Quarter to the Rue des Soeurs. Somewhere, the Serapeum stirs. The Hours have taken an interest. Cherchez la femme, the saying goes. But what does the lady look for?"[/i][/quote] [i]The Lady Afterwards[/i] is a [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/718670/Cultist_Simulator/][i]Cultist Simulator[/i][/url] TRPG for 2-8 players, set in 1920s Alexandria. It takes place in the world of the Secret Histories, where hidden gods watch over a world of apocalypse, yearning and forbidden arts. It’s a non-linear, combat-light, story-centric tabletop RPG: an occult Egyptian noir inspired by classics like Chaosium’s [i]Horror on the Orient Express[/i]. Each MPC x TLA box includes: [list] [*] [i]The Lady Afterwards Game Runner’s Guide[/i], a ~50 page TRPG scenario set in 1920s Alexandria [*] [i]The Secret Histories Rulebook[/i], a ~30 page mechanics primer [*] 18 hand-aged clues, including telegrams, lovers’ notes, photographs and more [*] “The Essential Hours” pocket tarot deck of 23 Major Arcana cards [i]and[/i] a full 78-card "Tarot of the Hours" [*] Eight customisable character sheets with personalised questionnaires and connections [*] Eight art deco character pins in silver and gold [*] A Game Runner’s Journal to keep track of players, game-states and evidence [*] A beautifully-scented black opium candle to evoke the Invisible Serapeum [*] A full-colour A3 map of contemporary Alexandria with real 1920s photographs [*] Two sets of antique TRPG dice in a velvet dice bag [*] A year-long 10% discount token for our shop [*] Access to a custom-built mood-music playlist of 1920s songs [*] A sterling silver cigarette case, incasing several characters' business cards [*] An antique 1920s magnifying glass [*] A custom wooden carrying case [*] A full digital edition of the whole game [/list] [h1]How can I get my hands on it?[/h1] The MPC edition costs £180 + shipping and launches at 6PM BST / 10AM PDT on [b]Tuesday 8th November 2022[/b], just under two weeks from now. There's limited stock available, so if the above floats your boat, I highly encourage you to [url=https://mysteriouspackage.com/collections/collection-new/products/the-lady-afterwards]join MPC's Lady Afterwards waitlist[/url] to be pinged the moment the game is live. (For the avoidance of doubt, we're still happily selling the [url=https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1033850944/the-lady-afterwards-an-occult-1920s-trpg]original version of [i]The Lady Afterwards[/i][/url]. So if you prefer the original 'cottagecore' concept, that's available too! Regardless, it's incredibly cool to see this lil project that grew out of a pretty bad time in my life become something as gorgeous as this. Thank you, MPC, and HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY IT! ♥)
