In The Bones of Chinatown, the pulp world of the 1930s is in danger! The dread Chinese sorcerer and mastermind Gao Fang is on the verge of obtaining god-like mystical power, the Ruby Eyes of the Lo-Man Tiger. Only a ragtag group of heroes stands between the safety of humanity and Gao Fang’s control over the laws of time and space. But do they have what it takes to traverse through the bowels of San Francisco’s Chinatown and into the very heart of the villain’s lair? Can they stop a Chinese mastermind from holding nigh unlimited power? This serial is not for the faint of heart!
This 9-page adventure utilizes the Savage Worlds rules system and takes place in the gritty pulp world popularized by the likes of Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett, thus offering a different feel than the standard fantasy dungeon crawl.
