You've been hired by the occultist Aleister Crowley to steal arcane artifacts from the Cologne Cathedral. Oh, and while you're there you must "persuade" a certain eminent physicist to return with you.
Description:
You've been hired by the Great Beast himself, the infamous occultist Aleister Crowley to carry out a mission of great importance and secrecy. Your goal is to infiltrate the Cologne Cathedral and steal the relics of the Three Magi. Mr. Crowley claims these relics are, in actuality, arcane artifacts that will be used in the inaugural ritual of his new arcane society, Argenteum Astrum (Latin for Silver Star). As if that were not enough, Crowley has also tasked you with "persuading" a certain eminent physicist to return to London with you. Apparently this gentleman is an expert in something called "quantum," which Crowley believes will assist his arcane research. You are to accomplish all of this without creating an international incident between the British and German Empires. Did we mention the pay is quite good?
You are British agents in Egypt. You've been dispatched to the oasis settlement of El-Kharga, where something has gone terribly wrong. Head into the desert to uncover secrets, old and new.
Description:
You are agents of the British crown, attached to the governor’s office in Cairo. A dispatch has just arrived from the oasis settlement of El-Kharga, where something has gone terribly wrong and violent riots have broken out. You have just been summoned to the governor’s office. You can put two and two together, and you can already see the short end of the stick heading in your direction. El-Kharga is normally a very peaceful town, but you’ve heard rumors that the Austrians have set a revolution in motion, that the black plague has re-surfaced, and that an ancient rift to a nearby dimension filled with unspeakable horrors has re-opened. Hopefully, some of those rumors are false. Still, you have no choice but to pack your bags and head deep into the depths of the desert to uncover secrets, some fresh and new, some old as the tombs of the vanished Egyptian Pharaohs.

Grounded! -or- All right, who stole the damn airship?
Summary:
Your gang of smugglers was supposed to be making a clean getaway after a job in Constantinople. Your airship has vanished, however. Find it and get away while dodging police and other criminals.
Description:
You’re the crew of a tramp freighter airship. You aren’t exactly pirates, and you aren’t exactly smugglers, but you have a flexible attitude toward the acquisition and sale of cargo. You were in Constantinople for a little bit of R & R, when a contact fed you a juicy, juicy tip about a hidden art treasure. You ran the heist perfectly, but you’ve just arrived at the hidden airship field where the Bonnie Prince Charlie was supposed to be waiting... and seen only cows and a few surly peasants. You’ll need to find your airship (smuggling without an airship is just far too much work, after all), and you’ll need to avoid whatever goons and thugs have been put on your tail by a very unhappy art collector while you do so.
