“ | I'm hearing rumours of something nasty creeping through Bögenhafen. It starts out as a plague, and gets worse from there. Daemon-plants and tentacles, if that sounds familiar. If it doesn't, you ain't been paying attention, 'ave you? My contacts reckon it started in the Pit - the town's poorest district, so do me a solid and get it stopped, would you? | „ |
~ Franz Lohner |
“ | I'm not gonna lie, Bögenhafen has a poor reputation what with one thing and another, but lately things have been getting worse. Plagues, sickness and disappearances: the usual trademarks of our pactsworn friends. So what say you get your lazy asses upriver and see what's what. Take your best gear, I recon this is will be a skitty one. | „ |
~ Franz Lohner |
Synopsis[ | ]
The Heroes travel to Bögenhafen to investigate rumours of Chaos corruption. According to Franz Lohner the Black Hook gang seems to be at the center of it, so the heroes set out to find their hideout, making their way through the poorest district of the town: The Pit.
Event[ | ]
At the Black Hook gang hideout, the heroes need to burn three stashes of tainted food which seem to be the source of the plague. While the supplies are burning, they are cornered by the Rotblood Tribe and need to fend them off until an explosion creates a way of escape. During the event, the heroes can board up and repair various windows to prevent enemies from entering the hideout.
Finale[ | ]
During their escape, the heroes have to traverse the dockside while dodging fire from a Ratling Gun boat out on the water, while also fighting off a horde. Parts of the ramparts fall away as they are damaged by the gunfire, so watch out for dead drops.

Notes[ | ]
- The passing of time can be seen during this mission, as the heroes start at sunset and end their mission in the late evening. The change in sky and lighting is done during the fight in the hideout.
- The Pit has only one single Monster-wall, blocking the shed which gives access to the gunboat finale. It is possible to run through the rest of the mission without having to deal with a monster spawn, though evading it during the hideout-event might be tricky.
