The Kingsbury Menagerie was once the toast of Europe until Master Thaddeus Kingsbury inherited it. Immediately he ended the menagerie's tour and moved to the family compound in darkest Africa, where waited upon by his loyal servants, he obsessed over finding ever more exotic animals, plants and rituals to add to the collection he had amassed. His need has become great as of late, so great that it threatens even the very people his servants love.
