The Veiled Society

The Veiled Society is an adventure module for the Basic Rules of the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game published in 1984.

The Veiled Society is an adventure scenario which takes place in the city of Specularum, where the player characters must investigate a murder to find out which of three rival factions is responsible.

[2] Specularum is the capital of the Grand Duchy of Karameikos, and the adventure involves the party in a struggle between the city's three major families (the Vorloi, Radu, and Torenescu).

Staplehurst observed that the adventure's possibilities are structured to be used by less experienced gamemasters, but each situation was detailed enough to allow for a variety of outcomes.

[2] In his 1991 book Heroic Worlds, Lawrence Schick called this adventure "more thought-provoking than your usual hack-and-slash Basic scenario".
