Synopsis
MASK OF THE DAMNED
The despotic Baron Mandrol demands that guests at his grand balls wear masks. Death masks - containing the images and magically trapped ghosts of murdered freedom fighters. Tonight, Mandrol wishes to relive the night when, ten years ago, he killed the heroic sorceror-warrior, Viktor Falsche.
But Viktor - a dead face alchemically grafted to a terrified peasant - somehow comes fully back to life, back to the hour of his failed rebellion. This time he succeeds in escaping the baron, and flees to a monster-hauntedwasteland. He is determined to have vengeance against the despot who killed his sister, kidnapped his lover, and enslaved and slaughtered his people.
He has no idea he's a rogue puppet, a necromantic parasite possessing an innoccent, a demonic mask that is fraying. Or that in only days, Viktor Falsche's reborn sould, memory, hope, and revenge will be mere rags in the gutter, tattered shreds scattered in the wind...
