The Quietus: A Temple Under the Sleeping City

The Quietus is a TTRPG content pack set in Aubade, a salt-panning city that fell asleep twenty-one years ago mid-step, mid-sentence, and never woke. Beneath its salt mine lies a basalt temple where sound goes to die, tended by a cult of silence who collect the Tithe: the last words, last laughs, and last screams of every sleeper, drawn out without waking a single one of them. Something under the temple has been counting the city by name ever since, and it is nearly finished.

What is in the pack:

• 3 fully detailed locations: the Hushed Market on the sleeping city's edge, the Brine Stair salt mine descent, and the Quietus Undercroft temple itself
• 4 NPCs with layered secrets and three discovery paths each, 2-3 paid quests in sp and gp, 20-row d20 mannerism tables, dialogue tables, and system-agnostic stat lines
• A 20-row d20 encounter table with DC, threat, cost, and reward columns, plus d6 complications and d10 rumours
• A 20-row d20 loot and trinkets table priced from 10 cp to 500 gp, with a bargaining price list
• 5 named factions with real conflicts between them, and 5 ready campaign hooks
• A welcome overview and a plain-text how-to-run guide

Fully system-agnostic: no classes, no levels, no licenses, and no required ruleset. Uses only d20 and d6, so it drops straight into any d20 fantasy game, old or new, and the stat lines read as modifiers or as roll-under targets as you prefer. Every secret has a say-it, find-it, or earn-it path, so no player is locked out of the plot. Commercial use for your own table is included.
