An Assignment for Candela Obscura


Your mission unfolds in the mansion district of The Eaves, where the venerable Wakefield Manse hides a mysterious source of magickal contamination. Sent to follow the footsteps of the lost Circle of Ash and Iron, your investigators must navigate through illusions, shadows, and the malevolent presence of Hezekiah Wakefield, a timeless wizard with a thirst for blood

As investigators, you'll face not only physical threats but also delve into the twisted mindscape of the mansion. Each decision you make ripples through the storyline, leading to a climactic confrontation where the fate of the investigators and the Wakefield Manse hangs in the balance. 

Can you uncover the truth, rescue the missing Circle, and escape the clutches of the hungering shadows? Play to find out!

A Note on the "Reanimated" Edition

This is one of our first investigations, and we've reanimated it based on player feedback!

A few notable updates to the haunted Wakefield Manse:

  • More rooms: We increased the number of rooms (by about double), and included random encounter tables so that you can truly lose yourself in the twisted halls of the Wakefield Manse!
  • More characters: When we originally released this investigation, several of the characters were named, but that was about it. Now the Circle of Ash and Iron is a fully realized cast of interesting characters and sympathetic victims!
  • More depth: At a few pivotal moments during the investigation, we offer you newly revamped mechanics - for instance, there are now gameplay mechanics for both ghostly possession as well as the final showdown with the Master of the Manse!

We've also had a few requests that we include graphics separately, for easy upload into digital tabletop programs. Those graphics are included in the attached ZIP file!

If you were hoping for a handmade version with zero AI content, we've included that, too - just download the "Handmade Version" PDF where all AI content is replaced with stock art placeholders.

Want the original experience of The Second Circle? No worries, that's still around, get it here!
