Vault 5e: Victoriana Menagerie

Fantastical Creatures, Extraordinary Londoners, and Detailed Neighbourhoods for Victoriana 5E!

‘Were you down by Edgewater Docks last night, when they unloaded that schooner, the Eliza Fae? A whole gang of Automatics they had do it, not a beating heart among them. Oh, it was a laugh when one pitched overboard, and no doubt the Monster of the Thames will spit its cogs up on the Isle of Dogs. But it’s a sign of the times, ain’t it? Never know who or what you’ll meet on the streets of London these days. At least the rats haven’t changed…’

From Unhallowed nasties that go bump in the night, to enigmatic Faeries and wild Elemental beings of raw magic, the Victoriana Menagerie is the ultimate guide to the strange creatures, marvellous automatons, and fascinating people that make up the magical city of London in 1887. 

The streets of the capital bustle with ordinary folk living extraordinary lives, from noble wyvern riders hoping to make their families proud to arcane apothecaries with a shady past. The London Zoo is home to creatures from across the Empire, and more subtle monsters haunt the dark alleys, winding sewers, and glittering ballrooms of the capital.

The Victoriana Menagerie includes a fascinating cast of characters and frightening monstrosities for use with the Victoriana Corebook:

• Londoners Galore: Over 90 unique and compelling NPCs, each suitable for encounters in one or more corners of London, ready to add to your campaign.

• Monsters and Machines: A huge range of monsters, from Faerie creatures to Unhallowed beasts, to steam powered Automatics and Simulacra — all fully 5E compatible and usable in the world’s most popular roleplaying game.

• Outsider Lineages: Four fantastical lineages for both NPCs and player characters; towering Giants, telepathic Tylwith, aquatic Seafolk, and alien Apophids.

• Explore the City: Eight fully detailed London neighbourhoods, packed with pubs, shops, and other locations for your Irregulars to explore, plus local contacts to meet.

• Secrets and Mysteries: Four secret societies to challenge your Irregulars; the revolutionary Common Coalition, fanatical Pyrophonic League, bestial Family of the Moon, and malignant Midnight Masquerade.

From the award-winning team that brought you A Life Well Lived™, Broken Weave™, Doctors and Daleks™, Hammer & Anvil™, Mortar & Pestle™, Adventures in Middle Earth™, and Uncharted Journeys™.
