Venom
A downloadable game
The scene is a familiar one...
Bedraggled adventurers gather around the great oaken table at the Drake’s Tongue Tavern, recounting their tales of fortune and glory. This band of dungeoneers has recently returned from a particularly successful delve and plunder—they’ve exhumed an ancient artifact of untold power. Each one eyes the others uneasily as they spin their stories of daring and danger, deftly avoiding the sensitive topic of exactly which of them will claim the relic for themselves.
Though their purses overflow with gold and jewels, their eyes gleam with avarice for the ultimate prize—and one of their number has taken matters into their own hands, slipping a deadly poison into their companions’ tankards.
At the end of the evening, after the last tale is told, only one treasure-seeker will draw breath, sliding past the slumped forms of their erstwhile companions with the ultimate reward in hand.

Oh cool. I was wondering about this game after you mentioned it during your Paris Gondo - The Life-Saving Magic of Inventorying actual play.
:)
Yep, this is the one! I've had it sitting around for ages, so I figured now would be a good time to put it up. :) Could use another editing pass or two and some more ambitious layout, but here it is.
Any chance you'll run it at GCOG?
I could! We played it over a few sessions, but I bet I could squeeze a good one-shot out of it.
