Gloucester

Northeast of Salem is Cape Ann. On the large island at the tip of the cape are two towns, Gloucester and Rockport. For a long time Gloucester was known as America’s oldest fishing port. However, once the waters were all fished out, the town’s fortunes changed. It now makes more money off tourists coming to watch whales than it does from fishing.

Gloucester is a picturesque place, but it’s also the poster town for the New England Gothic. It’s a stormy place, and the locals aren’t too fond of tourists, despite the money. Gloucester is so clearly distinct from Boston that it may as well be a thousand miles away.

Gloucester boasts a particularly thick tangle of ley lines and Hallows, although the resonance tends to be, as some mages have described it, “chilling” and “watery.”

Sanctum: Windham Manor

The Gravediggers maintain their sanctum in a forbidding house on a windswept cliff overlooking the sea.
