The city of Vermouth is rotting, not just from within, but from below. The people suffer under an unrelenting plague, quarantined beneath the Great Cathedral in a futile attempt to contain the disease. But what lurks in the depths of the city’s catacombs is not just the dead—it is the Hunger Below.
Something ancient and wrong pulses beneath the city, its sentience growing as it feeds.
High Priest Gellert Vorne, once a healer, now worships the Maw—a vast, eldritch gelatinous entity that devours all. His fanatical belief has twisted it into something more than just an ooze—he has made it a god.
Now, the city teeters on collapse, its people rioting, starving, and afraid. They look to Vorne for salvation, unaware that the salvation he offers is only consumption.
The players must navigate the horrors of the city above, uncover the truth behind Vorne’s unholy pact, and descend into the living dungeon beneath Vermouth—The Maw of the Cube.
Will they escape before they are digested, or will they drown in the Maw’s endless hunger?
