β Mary Shelley, Frankenstein
England in the end of the 1900th century, together from all walks of life and with story's more grotesque and horrible than the mind of lesser man may behold, a group of individuals meet. Was it the guiding hand of fate that brought them there? It may be.
This Rpg is inspired by the Television series Penny Dreadful. A group of Individuals, which can be either based or taken from the gothic literature we all now and love, or be inventions of your own fight against what some would describe as the super natural.
A short list of possible Inspirations:
-Mary Shelley's Frankenstein
-Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde
-Bram Stoker's Dracula
-Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray
-The Works of Edgar Allan Poe (Here one would need a little bit of fantasy)
