Malifaux 3rd Edition: Hand of Janus

Malifaux is a distorted reflection of an alternate Earth set in the 1900s, a world filled with gothic horror, Victorian architecture, steampunk inventions, and wild west gunfighters. Haunted by undead creatures, vengeful spirits, and other dark entities, these near-lawless lands are dangerous, yet some brave souls venture into them, drawn by the Soulstones hidden deep within the treacherous catacombs—prized more than the effort it takes to retrieve them.

Initially created to rekindle a sense of adventure for its founder, the Explorer’s Society has since evolved into an organization focused on uncovering the secrets of Malifaux and beyond. Composed of aristocrats, curious travelers, and daring explorers, the Society delves into the farthest reaches of this world to seek knowledge, chart new territories, and hunt dangerous creatures. Though their true motivations remain unclear, their recent drive to collect rare artifacts is evident.
