Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay: Middenheim – City of the White Wolf takes players deep into the northern Empire, to one of the Old World's most imposing and fiercely independent cities. Built upon the towering Fauschlag, a great rock formation said to have been flattened by the fist of Ulric himself, Middenheim is a formidable fortress carved from solid stone by skilled Dwarf craftsmen.
Known as the City of the White Wolf, Middenheim is the spiritual centre of the worship of Ulric, the God of War, Winter and Wolves. His sacred Eternal Flame burns within the city, symbolising the strength and determination of its people. Yet behind the impressive walls and proud traditions lies a dangerous world of political rivalries, secret cults, ambitious merchants and conspirators working to advance their own interests.
For adventurers prepared to navigate its troubled streets, Middenheim offers plenty of opportunities. Whether investigating sinister plots, dealing with powerful nobles or simply trying to earn a living, survival often depends as much on good judgement and useful connections as it does on strength and courage.
Middenheim: City of the White Wolf provides a comprehensive guide to this important northern city, taking Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay campaigns beyond the familiar territories of the Reikland and into the heart of Ulrican influence.
Each district is explored in detail, introducing its distinctive locations, inhabitants and potential adventures. From the busy markets of the Altmarkt to the smaller businesses of the Kleinmoot and the diplomatic affairs of the Kislevite Embassy, the city offers a wide range of places for characters to visit and become involved in local affairs.
The book also includes beautifully illustrated Gamemaster and Player maps, allowing groups to explore Middenheim and its surroundings in greater detail.
Middenheim has a long and often turbulent history, closely connected to the worship of Ulric and the political struggles of the Empire.
This supplement explores the city's past, including its importance as a centre of Ulrican faith and its time as the seat of the rival Wolf Emperors. The influence of religion remains strong, but the city's political and social divisions create opportunities for those seeking power.
Secret organisations and dangerous cults operate beneath the surface, threatening the stability of Middenheim's institutions. Gamemasters will find information on these groups, their activities and the conflicts they may bring into a campaign.
Beyond the fortress walls, Middenheim exercises authority over a considerable stretch of northern territory, with influence reaching towards the coastal lands of Nordland.
The book examines the surrounding regions, their settlements and the noble families who govern them. Rivalries between powerful households, competing political interests and local disputes provide further opportunities for adventures outside the city.
This material allows Gamemasters to expand their campaigns into the wider northern Empire while maintaining close connections to Middenheim's politics and traditions.
Alongside its extensive setting information, Middenheim: City of the White Wolf introduces additional rules and character options for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay.
Players can create characters with backgrounds rooted in Middenheim, Middenland and Nordland, reflecting the customs and experiences of people from these regions.
The supplement also introduces the Wolf Kin career, allowing characters devoted to Ulric to follow a path inspired by the fierce beliefs and traditions of their god.
New creatures, notable NPCs and numerous adventure hooks provide Gamemasters with additional material for creating encounters and developing ongoing campaigns.
