The Enemy Within
A Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay Campaign
The Enemy Within is probably one of the most well-known pre-written campaigns in the RPG space, I never managed to pick up a copy of the first edition version so—when Cubicle 7 announced they were going to do a “director’s cut” version for WFRP 4E—I eagerly purchased all of the main books along with their companion volumes.
At the start of 2024 I finally got the opportunity to start running this with my regular group, this page contains a collected list of links to our session write-ups and anything else I might publish that is connected with this campaign.
In addition to this campaign, I am also running a campaign using the WFRP 2E rules set in Ubersreik (the default setting from the WFRP 4E starter set), you can find the write-ups for that campaign by clicking here.
Our heroes
Our current group of heroes:
Doctor Gabriel Colby, master of the scalpel & owner of Arcadia Haus school of medicine in Middenheim.
Ernest Forde, a man with a shadowed past who has recently acquired a noble title, some say by nefarious means.
Oleg “Iron Hand” Longbarrel, a young dwarf who is a rising star in the Worshipful Guild of Engineers and Runesmiths in Middenheim.
Roland Harrowghast, Champion of the Graf and devotee of Ulric.
Gone but not forgotten:
Haedrin Veil, a human bounty hunter who joined the group for a time before leaving to seek bounties elsewhere.
