his is a standard RPGA Network tournament

T for a team of four to six 1st-level agents

(though the serial’s challenges and XP rewards
are tiered so that the serial can be played by up to six
agents of levels 6, 11, or 16 as well). See the Living
Spycraft website, or the most recent Living Spycraft
Master Rules Document, for which agents may play
at each of these target average agent levels. Set aside
a four-hour time block for this event. Instruct the
players to leave the character sheets face down until
you have read the introduction.
The actual playing time should be about three
hours. Make sure to let the players use the last 20
to 30 minutes of the event time block to briefly
describe their characters for each other, and to vote
on each others’ performances during the mission.
Use the standard RPGA Network voting procedures.
Make sure you have finished voting before you collect
the players’ voting sheets, so you won’t be influenced
by their votes and comments.
A note about the text in this module — some of it is
written so that you may present it to the players, while
other text is for your eyes only. Text for the players
is presented in shaded boxes throughout the serial. It’s
strongly recommended that you paraphrase the player
text, instead of reading it aloud; some of the text is
general and must be adapted to the specific situation
or to the actions of the agents.

Cartography: Cris Dornaus sonal kingdom in the beleaguered Namibian region. His plan
is to destabilize the country with a sudden crisis, then swoop
in and claim it with a sudden land grab.
Toward this end, de Bruin has tasked one of his henchmen,
Gerald Honeywell (codename: GENESIS), with abducting the
teenage daughters of several Windhoek-based diplomats.
GENESIS has in turn hired a group of ex-SWAPO bandits to
complete the mission, ordering their leader, Lukas Njambeli,
to kidnap and kill the girls, then dump then in Kaokoveld,
homeland of the Himba, a backward tribe who lives in
Namibia’s barren northwestern region. Njambeli took the
girls, but instead of killing them, has sequestered them in his
 3 4
secret hideaway in the Caprivi region, planning to demand
a hefty ransom when the opportunity arises.
Meanwhile, GENESIS has bribed sometime-safari guide
Dieter Hehsemann to provide false testimony pointing to
the Himba in order to ensure the girls’ bodies are found.
The testimony claims that the kidnapping are retribution
for Namibian government plans to build a hydro power
station at the Epupa Falls on the Kunene River, in Himba
territory. This project is extremely important to Namibia and
neighboring Angola, but would force many Himba clans to
relocate, and would be devastating to the Himba tribe and
their ancient way of life.
In truth, very few of the Himba are even aware of the
planned construction, and none are aware of the kidnapping.
If the agents approach Chief Kuratanga diplomatically, they
find him welcoming, and interested in helping them to
thwart the accusations against his people.
Finally, the agents may encounter political journalist Anke
Wiese, of the German-language newspaper Allgemeine
Zeitung, in which she regularly attacks the Namibian
government-controlled media as a fraudulent and politically
motivated rag. Wiese doubts the Himba’s involvement,
suspecting a government-engineered ploy to generate a reason
to force the Himba out of their homelands.
Serial Synopsis
Where the Lions Sleeps Tonight follows the standard Living
Spycraft serial format, and is divided into an introduction
and 4 scenes.
Mission Briefing and Gearing Up: The agents may bring
small items into the mission zone via diplomatic baggage,
but must procure all additional gear locally. Hotel rooms are
already booked for them in the city of Windhoek.
Scene 1: Into Africa. The agents arrive in Windhoek and
may gather additional information at the local embassy,
a local school, Hehsemann’s apartment, and the police head-
quarters. They should also get a feel for Africa here. Ideally,
the team follows Hehsemann’s suggestion to employ local
hunters (leading to Scene 2), or follow Wiese’s lead to the
Himba (leading to Scene 3).
Scene 2: Hunted. Far off the beaten path, Hehsemann leads
the agents to a group of experienced hunters, though discreet
investigation reveals them to be poachers. During the following
night, the agents awake to an empty camp, blood soaking
the tents to attract roaming lions, supposedly providing the
cover-up for a “tragic hunting accident.” If the agents
survive, they find their off-road vehicle sabotaged and
are forced to hike back to Windhoek. Unfortunately,
the poachers have set up an ambush en route to catch any
survivors in crossfire with their powerful hunting rifles.
Alternatively, if the agents linger at the camp, the poachers
come looking for bodies, possibly running into an ambush
themselves. Questioning the poachers reveals additional clues
to the ultimate plot.
Scene 3: African Mysteries. The Himba are considered
a backward people, but they’re perfectly adapted to their
unforgiving environment, and as such, are very aware of what
happens in their territory. If the agents decide to investigate
and treat the Himba and their culture with respect, they gain
the location of the girls from this unusual people.
Scene 4: Rescue. The bandits’ hideaway is a paramilitary
base nestled in an old, long dried-out confluence of the
Okavango River, called ‘serpent valley’ in the local language.
A careful observation of the compound reveals the abductees’
location, at which point the agents must come up with a plan
to bring them out alive.
Mission Briefing
Read the following aloud to begin this serial.
You’re called into the briefing room on a Code: Yellow.
It’s strange being called in by beeper, and you’re restless
as you curiously get seated. Your Control begins the briefing
as soon as everybody is seated.
“As of 2100 local time yesterday in Windhoek, Namibia, two
girls were reported missing.”
A slide displays two pretty, roughly 18-year old blond girls
in modest, modern clothing. The backdrop of one photo is
a wide-ranging steppe dotted with scarce dry trees, while the
other is shot against a park with tropical flowers.
“Silke Beckmann is eighteen and a student at the German
International High School on Bülow Street in Windhoek.
Her father, Holger Beckmann, is the German Ambassador
to Namibia. Silke’s closest friend, Heike Bach, is one year old.
The girls left school together around 1400 hours, presumably
headed to a café on nearby Adler Street. Another patron
at the café, Dieter Hehsemann, watched the girls disappear
into a small alley, closely followed by a white Land Rover.
The vehicle’s license plate was illegible, obscured by red dust
that covered most of the lower half and back of the car.
The occupants of the car worn the style and dress of ‘modern
Himba’ tribesmen, according to witnesses.
“The girls haven’t been seen since. While several adjacent
buildings have back doors and delivery entrances onto the alley,
questioning tenants and storeowners has thus far yielded no
pertinent information.
“The Namibian police are looking for the girls, but they’re
understaffed and overwhelmed. Ambassador Beckmann has
called in a few favors, asking us for help. You’re to travel to
Namibia, find Beckmann’s daughter and her friend, and bring
them home alive. You’re to strictly avoid all potential diplo-
matic complications, but may otherwise use whatever means
you deem necessary.
Continued on page 6.

“Local supply and communication channels are shaky. Beyond
a few items we’ll be able to slip in through diplomatic pouches,
you’ll have to largely fend for yourself. Also, don’t expect
cell phones to operate anywhere but major settlements.
Even satellite phones might experience difficulties due to the
low satellite density over the region. This time, agents, we’re
counting on you to rely on your wits and the resources at hand.”
Gearing Up
This mission is Code: Yellow.
The GC should allow the agents no more than 20–30 minutes
to choose gear and plan how to approach the mission.
Because of the limited volume permitted in diplomatic
baggage, the entire team’s gear — including weapons —
may not exceed the size of 1 standard suitcase. In country,
the entire team may requisition 1 additional batch of gear
and gadgets not exceeding the same volume once per
24-hour period, at 150% of the standard BP and/or GP cost
(rounded up).
The team may, of course, purchase additional gear with
field expenses on site, and may use the black market to do
so, but the cost of each item is increased by an additional
50% (rounded up).
The basic premise behind this mission is to pit the team
against an alien environment in which they have to depend
on their own skills and ingenuity to thrive.
Bundles
The following bundle(s) are available to agents during the
Gearing Up phase of this serial only. They may not be chosen
at any other time during this serial, or during any other
serial, unless expressly stated otherwise by the Living
Spycraft Master Rules Document or the serial in question.
This bundle is expressly useful for the mission as presented
during this serial’s briefing (not particularly later scenes),
and the GC should make this clear during this phase.
African Safari Bundle (25 BP)
1 set of safari clothing, magnetic compass, regional maps
(Namibia), 1 pair of night vision goggles or 1 pair of binoculars,
survival kit, canteen, flashlight, first aid kit, 1 antidote shot,
headset radio with 2-mile range, digital camera with either
super-telephoto or infrared filter lens.
Recommended Gadgets
If time is short or the GC wishes to get straight to
the action, it’s encouraged that he assign gadgets from the
following list, or allow the agents to normally requisition
gadgets from these options.
• Standard armor liner clothing (1 GP).
• Standard grappling hook belt (1 GP).
• Starlight lenses (1 GP).
• Telescopic lenses (2 GP).
• Thermographic lenses (2 GP).
Scene 1: Into Africa
Agent Description
Read the following when the agents enter this scene.
An embassy car awaits you in Windhoek and ferries you
directly to Ambassador Beckmann’s office. Once there,
you’re ushered into a quiet, sparsely appointed reception
room. The room smells of wood and leather and features
memorabilia of colonial times long past, including old
hunting rifles, antique sabres, and an ostentatious picture of
the German foreign minister.
Five minutes later, the tall, blond-haired aristocrat enters
the room, closely followed by an aide. Impeccably dressed,
Holger Beckmann greets you, shaking your hand and asking,
“So, you’re the team who’ll be bringing my Silke back
home, then?”
GC Description
This scene takes place at location #1 on the Namibia map
(see pages 39–40).
This is Africa — and not. Windhoek lies on a high plateau,
1,700 meters above sea level, and is dry and cool, especially
when compared to the jungle climate the team might have
expected after the briefing.
On the way to the embassy from the airport, the agents
witness some of the local wildlife: kudu and springbuck
antelopes, farm ostriches, and families of warthogs, nick-
named ‘radio-controlled animals’ because their tails stick
straight up like the antennae of RC cars.
The German colonial influence is still very prevalent
in street and building architecture and names, especially at
Windhoek’s city center. Very few buildings reach as high as
7 to 8 stories. In central Windhoek, one is rather reminded
of a small European city — the streets are paved and the
curbs well tended. There is no bazaar atmosphere, no hectic
hawking and begging as one might expect.
The agents’ first indication that they’re in Africa is a group
of native women clothed in colorful, 19th century dresses
and elaborate headgear. These Herero are the second-most
numerous tribespeople in Namibia, behind President Sam
Nujoma’s Ovambo.
The agents may potentially interview Ambassador
Beckmann, Herr Botschafter Holger Beckmann, Chief of
Police Patrick Muwambe, reporter Frau Anke Wiese, and the
kidnapping’s sole witness, Herr Dieter Hehsemann. No skill
check is required to collect the following information.
 7 8
Ambassador Beckmann
Representing the Federal Republic of Germany in Namibia
is a fairly easy assignment as both governments entertain
quite cordial relations, and Beckmann is therefore confident
that the Namibian state police will do their best to find the
girls. But he’s equally enthused that an international team of
specialists has been sent in to help, and invests great energy
into the effort, even though he has little of substance to offer.
In addition to the contents of the police report, Beckmann
knows only that neither of the girls were wearing revealing
clothes, nor are their parents lucrative targets for ransom
demands.
Chief of Police Patrick Muwambe
A pock-scarred, heavy-set Ovambo in his fifties,
Windhoek’s Chief Inspector of Police answers only to the
Minister of the Interior. Without a municipal police force,
the state police are responsible for all of Namibia. Muwambe
knows what Hehsemann reported and the results of the crime
scene investigation: that rubber tire tracks indicated sharp
acceleration by a vehicle matching Hehsemann’s testimony.
Unfortunately, additional findings are still pending, and
Muwambe is loath to hand out potentially false information.
Frau Anke Wiese
Anke is outraged about the general media’s coverage of the
kidnapping, which blames the incident on the escalating
conflict between the Himba people and the central government
of President Sam Nujoma over the Epupa Falls power station
project (see page 3). Wiese feels strongly that this is ridicu-
lous. She knows the Himba to be a very traditional and
kindly people who excel at surviving with the scarce
resources provided by the desert. In her opinion, all these
unfortunate tribesmen are guilty of is falling victim to
a government that doesn’t allow them to live the life they
choose. She speculates that the government might have
prompted the incident in order to produce leverage to use
against the Himba, speeding up the economically important
project, but since she doesn’t have any evidence, she can’t
publish her story — yet.
If the agents become stuck, Wiese suggests they visit the
Himba. For all the tribe’s backward ways, they know their
territory very well and might be able to give more detailed
information from their unique perspective.
Finally, Wiese angles throughout the serial to obtain
the exclusive story behind the kidnappings, and will ask
the agents to contact her with any important information.
She assures the agents that she will paint all parties — except
the kidnappers, of course — in the best possible light,
and leave the agents’ names out of it. (She is in fact being
completely genuine here, and can actually help the current
Namibian political situation if the agents work with her —
see Debriefing, page 24, for more information.)
Herr Dieter Hehsemann
Hehsemann is an occasionally employed — and not very
successful — safari guide entrenched in the less savory side
of the Windhoek German-language community. The local
police rate his trustworthiness as only ‘adequate’.
An ascetic white, dark brown-haired man of 35 years
of age, Hehsemann has a nervous tick: when confronted
directly, his left eye begins to twitch. He claims to have seen
the girls disappear into an alley, followed by a 90s-model
white Toyota all-terrain vehicle. The car’s four passengers
looked to be members of the Himba tribe, a backward sect
living to the northwest. Hehsemann identified them by their
slender build and the elongated shape of their heads,
claiming after 30 years in the bush he could “smell the
origin of a native, if need be”.
After Hehsemann heard a car accelerating in the alley,
he went to have a look and spotted the same car speeding
away and disappearing around a corner. The girls were
nowhere to be seen, but could have exited the alley, so
Hehsemann wasn’t immediately suspicious. But when the
Allgemeine Zeitung reported the girls missing, Hehsemann
remembered the incident and immediately went to the police.
If the team hints that they might travel north to the
Himba, Hehsemann offers to act as their guide, claiming
to know experienced hunters who can help. The price
he demands is not outrageous, but rather stiff — a flat fee
of $2,000 for the entire trip.
If the agents ask to examine Hehsemann’s behavior,
a successful Sense Motive check opposed by his Bluff skill
determines that he’s lying (though not how or why). Should
the agents become suspicious of Hehsemann, they can try
to break in into his apartment, a three-room affair in
a run-down, semi-industrial area in northern Windhoek.
Living Room: The untidy living room is poorly lit, sunlight
blocked by dirty windows and grimy shades. With a successful
Search check (DC 10/15/20/25), the team finds several
German-language magazines under the coffee table, some
of them of the nationalistic sort, called “Der Afrikaner”.
Bathroom: This area contains only the barest hygiene
articles, and hasn’t been cleaned in many weeks.
Bedroom: With a successful Search check (DC 10/15/20/25),
the team finds a hunting rifle tucked under the bed, as well
as ammunition and a collection of raunchy magazines
in the closet. With a second successful Search check
(DC 15/20/25/30), the team finds an envelope taped to the
back of the nightstand, containing $1,000 in local currency
a single slip of paper reading, “Njambeli.”
‘Njambeli’ is a keyword Hehsemann overheard during
a phone conversation with his employer. He made note of it,
just in case he could use it later to make some money or get
out of a jam. If the agents use it to threaten Hehsemann,
he reveals that a ‘civilized’ man in a gray summer suit
approached him at the Café Wiesbaden. Obviously knowing
 9 10
Hehsemann by reputation, this man offered him the $1,000
to give false testimony, assuring him that the girls would
go unharmed. Hehsemann has no idea where the girls
are currently located.
Hehsemann knows ‘Njambeli’ is a name, but doesn’t
remember whose.
Security
Hehsemann’s apartment is secured with a normal wooden
door (hardness 4, 8 wound points, and a Break DC of 12).
The door may be unlocked with a successful Open Lock check
(DC 15/20/25/30).
Troubleshooting
It should soon become clear that there is not much more
information to be had. If the agents spend too much time
tracking down clues after Hehsemann and Wiese have been
interviewed, Beckmann asks for an update, then demands
they pursue what they have (his worry and impatience are
obvious).
If the agents refuse to pursue either option, Muwambe’s
officers find a shoe and a key chain belonging to Silke
Beckmann by a roadside in Himba territory, pointing them
in the right direction.
Development
This scene sets the theme for the remainder of the serial.
With any luck, the GC is able to impart Namibia’s complex
history and the groups and motives potentially behind the
kidnapping (see GC Introduction, page 2). The team should
very soon decide to either follow Wiese’s suggestion to visit
the Himba or take up Hehsemann’s offer to employ some
experienced hunters.
Scene 2: Hunted
Agent Description
Read the following aloud when the agents enter this scene.
If Hehsemann guides the agents, the hunters recognize him
and wave the team to park their all-terrain car. A racially
mixed group of twelve men sits around the small campfire,
drinking beer and talking quietly. When the team enters the
circle, a huge blond man looks up and says, “So Hehsemann,
are these the Kerle we’re supposed to hunt the Himba for?”
GC Description
This scene takes place at location #2 on the Namibia map
(see pages 39–40).
While the majority of Namibia is a dry desert, the Etosha
Pan National Park contains numerous watering holes.
The vegetation here is lusher, the desert shifting to savannah
and bushlands. Wildlife is bountiful here, but that also means
that predators have an easier time finding prey. Leopards,
cheetah, and hyena survive well in this park, but the true
ruler is the lion, the strongest of all predators and the most
feared in Namibia, for he is a man-eater.
One road passes through Etosha Park, and the gates are
closed at dusk each night — not to keep the animals in,
but to keep humans out. Allowing tourists to roam here in
the dark would be manslaughter.
The poachers make their camp just outside the Etosha pan,
to the southeast. They make their living hunting endangered
species and selling hides and body parts on the black market,
especially to Asia. Long since sentenced to death for their
crimes, they have no qualms about new action against the
state. Hehsemann has been one of their strongest business
connections, both legal and illegal, often placing them in
touch with rich would-be game hunters seeking dangerous
nighttime excursions into the national park.
The hunters’ leader is Martin De Vries, a former Rhodesian
landowner, farmer, and active supporter of racial separation.
His band is comprised of a collection of local and immigrant
hirelings loyal to money and to him alone (in that order).
Hehsemann didn’t expect his testimony to stir up so much
dust, and when the agents started nosing around, they
became a threat the false witness intends to eliminate.
He arranged for a little hunting accident, trusting De Vries’
band to do the job for him.
The hunters provide an empty spot in the camp’s south-
eastern corner to pitch their tents. After the agents are asleep,
they spread antelope blood around the agent’s tent while
one of them watches the tent with an infrared scope.
Then they sabotage the agents’ vehicle, pushing their own
land rovers beyond listening range, and then drive away,
leaving the agents to their fate.
In the deep of night, the smell of blood attracts a pack
of lions, which start to circle the camp. The lion’s roar wakes
the agents, at which point each should make an education
check (DC 15/20/25/35). Each agent who succeeds with this
check recognizes the smell of blood heavy in the air.
Once any agent leaves his tent, the lions pounce and combat
commences as standard (see Threats, page 12).
During the combat, if any characters seek refuge in the car,
the lions jump on the hood, spend 1 half action to smash the
windshield, and reach in to attack with their claws. If any
characters try to climb the tree when 1 or more lions are
adjacent to him, he must make a successful Climb check
opposed by the lions’ Jump skills to avoid being pulled back
down, losing his action. (Also remember that a lion can climb
a tree as well.)
If the agents think to overwhelm the smell — for example,
by burning rubber at the blooded sites — the lions lose interest
and flee into the night.
During the fight with the lions, the team must coordinate
closely in order not to avoid losing its weakest member.
Once the agents weather the attack and notice the poachers
are missing, they may either walk back to the closest road
or — if they deduce correctly that the poachers will return
to make sure their ‘hunting accident’ went according to plan
— setting their own ambush for the poachers.
If the agents head for the road, they wander into the
poachers’ trap. Four poachers have set themselves up on
a hill 400 ft. from the road, and open fire with their hunting
 11
rifles as the agents come into view at that range. See the
Fixer/Pointman Class Guide, page 60, for information about
running ambushes. If this book is unavailable, the agents
may make a Spot check (DC 15/20/25/30) to spot the poachers
before they fire; otherwise, the poachers gain the benefits
of 1 standard surprise round. The poachers’ weapons are
considered to be braced at the start of this encounter,
granting them a +1 circumstance bonus with all attacks made
against the agents. If the agents approach closer than 100 ft.
to the poachers’ roost, the poachers fall back to the other side
of the hill and head for their car at its base.
If the agents set up their own ambush, the poachers return
by early afternoon, carefully approaching from two sides. See
the Fixer/Pointman Class Guide, page 60, for information
about running ambushes. If this book is unavailable,
the poachers may make a Spot check opposed by the agents’
Hide skills to spot the ambush before it’s sprung; otherwise,
the agents gain the benefits of 1 standard surprise round
(and whatever appropriate circumstance benefits they are
due, per the GC’s discretion).
Map Key: Poachers’ Camp
The poachers’ camp is set up in a shallow depression in
order to hide it from curious eyes. Along its north side are
three 6-ft. tall tents, each with enough room to bunk 4–6
people. The aluminum boxes behind these tents are carefully
stacked and secured with padlocks requiring a successful
Open Lock or Break check (DC 10/15/20/25) to access. Some
are empty, others contain heavy but mundane gear, and one
contains several ‘water’ satchels filled with antelope blood
(which is used to set up the lion trap to
eliminate the agents — see opposite).
The trees in the area are pathetic, dried Poacher’s camp
up affairs. Only the southernmost of them
features a limb that appears stout enough
to support a human at a height of about
8 ft. Reaching this limb requires a successful
Climb check (DC 10/15/20/25).
1. Bunk Tent #1 (Germans): Within this
tent are 4 field cots, each accompanied by
a mosquito net, a locked aluminum chest,
a 6-ft. high metal locker, and a few
makeshift shelves for personal gear like
canteens, weapons cleaning gear, binocu-
lars, and the like. Each chest is secured
with a padlock requiring a successful Open
Lock or Break check (DC 20/25/30/35) to
access, and contains minor personal gear,
$3d20, and several passports (with the
same photos, but different names).
2. Bunk Tent #2 (Germans): Within this
tent are 4 field cots, each accompanied by
a mosquito net, a locked aluminum chest,
a 6-ft. high metal locker, and a few make-
shift shelves for personal gear like canteens,
weapons cleaning gear, binoculars, and
the like. Each chest is secured with a
12
padlock requiring a successful Open Lock or Break check
(DC 20/25/30/35) to access, and contains minor personal
gear, $3d20, and several passports (with the same photos,
but different names). Additionally, De Vries stays in this tent,
and his locker contains 4 rolled stacks of hundred-dollar
bills, amounting to $3,500 in U.S. currency.
3. Bunk Tents (Locals): Within this tent are 5 field cots, each
accompanied by a wooden chest and a few makeshift shelves
for minor personal gear like canteens, tribal fetishes, and
animal bones. Within each unlocked chest are several articles
of colorful clothing and faded photos of native families.
4. Bunk Tent (Hehsemann): Within this small and recently
erected 1-man tent, clothes are carelessly strewn about and
a bottle of cheap South African liquor sits on a single stool.
A closed sports bag tucked under the tent’s only cot contains
Hehsemann’s personal effects, as well as 1 thick, rolled stack
of hundred-dollar bills, amounting to $1,500 in U.S. currency.
Mess Tent: Within this long tent are a gas stove, some
kitchen utensils, and several boxes of canned food.
Threats
The lions are dangerous — this is their territory, and they
rule the night. Each lions is automatically considered to be
hidden at the start of the combat (see the Spycraft errata
v1.5, page 17). Each animal strives to pounce upon an agent,
grappling him and then inflicting damage during the grapple
using its bite and claw attacks. The first target of any lion is

Security
In this case, the agents provide the security. If they set up
a guard while the rest of the team sleeps, that agent makes
a Listen check opposed by the poachers’ Move Silently skills
to notice the poachers spreading blood around the tent.
With failure, the scene continues as scripted, with the agents
alerted to the lions’ presence by their fierce roars.
Troubleshooting
Suspicious characters might (rightly) not trust the poachers,
and pursue them after their attempt to soak the area
surrounding the agents’ tent with antelope blood. If the agents
engage the poachers in combat, or even a heated argument
or interrogation, the lions intervene, drawn either by the
blood or the chaos at the camp, or both. Such a combat
resolves as standard.
Development
Should 1 or more poachers become captured, they imme-
diately break under any pressure, volunteering information
for their freedom. They reveal a name they heard from
Hehsemann: ‘Njambeli’ (best known for Jobe Njambeli,
a SWAPO freedom fighter who stood alongside now-President
Sam Nujoma — and father of Lukas Njambeli, the leader
of the kidnappers, though the poachers don’t know this).
They also reveal a location they heard from Hehsemann:
‘serpent valley’ (which is known to be located in the Caprivi
region). With this information in hand, the agents may either
continue into the Caprivi (and to Scene 3), or head back to
Windhoek to re-supply and try to either find Hehsemann or
visit the Himba (entering Scene 2).
Scene 3:
African Mysteries
Agent Description
Read the following aloud when the agents enter this scene.
Leaving the lone well-paved road to the north, it seems like
you’re heading into the bush. After hours, you encounter
small groups of small, red-brown skinned natives, clothed
in nothing but loin clothes. The men carry spears or short
bows, and the proud women carry woven baskets, and are
often surrounded by small children.
Halting your vehicle amidst a meager assemblage of small
clay huts, you see that civilization has made its impression
after all — a ‘bottle store’ made of metal sheets has been
constructed in the village center, its outside walls covered
with an artfully arranged soda caps and aluminum beer cans.
An elderly man approaches you with quirky movements,
stretching his thin hands in your directions. “You wan’ giv’
gifts, yes?” he asks in broken English.

GC Description
This scene takes place at location #3 on the Namibia map
(see pages 39–40).
The Kaokoveld is one of the last remaining wilderness
regions in South Africa, a world of incredible mountain scenery
and a refuge for the rare desert-dwelling elephant, black rhino,
and giraffe. It is also home to the Himba tribespeople. Although
the harsh area offers little respite at midday, the rugged
landscape is especially attractive during the early morning and
late afternoon, when it’s bathed in softly glowing pastel shades.
The country has one of the lowest population densities in
the world, the huge and silent landscape hosting only 5,000
Himba (roughly 1 person per 2 square kilometers).
The Himba live a semi-nomadic life, moving from one
home to another several times a year to seek strong grazing
land for their livestock. They are slender and graceful,
wearing few clothes and rubbing their bodies and braided
hair with red ochre and fat for protection from the sun.
This gives their skin a rich red hue. The women are noted
for intricate hairstyles and traditional adornments.
With a successful Cultures check (DC 20/25/30/35), the agents
can glean the following about the culture.
• The Himba don’t usually speak English. Those who do dislike comments
about their ‘backwardness’.
• Openly ogling the women is sure to offend them.
• Taking anything, even from seemingly abandoned huts, is considered theft.
• Littering along the countryside is an affront against the spirits of the land.
If Wiese is with the agents, she tells them all this, when asked.
The Himba honor ancient gods, the Land and Fire. They
are backward, not dumb, experts in desert survival and
extremely efficient hunters and stalkers (though not inclined
to kill otherwise). Additionally, their informal network keeps
close track of all foreigners in their territory (information of
great use to the agents during this mission).
Himba homes are simple cone-shaped structures of
saplings bound together with palm leaves and plastered with
mud and dung. Animal enclosures are often attached, keep-
ing each village’s mainstay close at hand, protected by all.
Some larger villages are surrounded by an enclosure of dead
thorn bushes, called a Kraal. Such is the case here.
The village’s headman and shaman dominate the tribal
structure, and may be identified with a successful Gather
Information check (20/25/30/35). This village’s headman is
named Kuratanga. Kuratanga speaks broken English. When
the agents first encounter him, one among them must make
a Diplomacy check (DC 15/20/25/30), with which they gain a
+2 synergy bonus if he possesses 5 or more ranks in the
Cultures skill. With success, and unless the agents insult the
Himba as described earlier in this section, Kuratanga agrees
to talk with the agents at length, ‘when he is one with the
spirit world.’
 15
Kuratanga doesn’t appear again until dusk, when he
emerges from his dwelling, clad in animal hides and orna-
ments of iron and bone, and prepares a holy fire of herbs.
After half an hour, he tells the team that they can ask their
questions, and sits to listen.
Like all Himba, Kuratanga shares freely in times of need,
but his approach is simple (he don’t know how to count, for
example — what he sees, he asks for). While most Himba
don’t even understand the concept of a national government,
Kuratanga does, and that the Epupa Falls dam project will
severely change his peoples’ lives, likely destroying their cul-
ture forever. He is very willing to help the agents — if they in
turn agree to help him clear the Himba name.
During the evening discussion, the team may learn the fol-
lowing.
• A ‘house that moves’ recently entered Himba lands and turned toward ‘the
morning sun’ until it arrived at the big river past the dry land. Four black
warriors lived in the hut, along with ‘two women with hair like sunshine’.
• The hut stopped at a village in the ‘serpent valley’, where a strong
tribe resides.
• This tribe does not follow the ways of the land anymore, and is not Himba.
If presented with a map, neither Kuratanga nor his shaman
knows how to identify the landmarks of which they speak.
If they are to lead the agents there, they must do so personally.
The Himba have not abducted the girls and are uncon-

cerned about repercussions. Kuratanga, being somewhat bet-
ter versed in the ways of the outside world, fears what could
happen if his tribe is blamed, however, and works with the
agents to clear their name once he hears of the trouble.
Map Key: Himba Krall
The semi-nomadic Himba’s most prized possessions are their
animals. In order to protect them from prowling predators,
traditional Himba villages are arranged in a Kraal — two large
rings of dense and spiky dried bush enclosing a village center
where the huts and their attached pens are grouped. The central
courtyard sports a large carved ceremonial pole and is used as
a meeting point and for tribe ceremonies.
1. Headman Kuratanga’s Hut: The village’s largest hut is
only matched by the shaman’s ornamented dwelling, housing
Kuratanga’s young wife and her three small children. Apart
from pretty hides, well-made ornaments, tribal jewelry, and
hunting bows, nothing of value is found here.
2. Shaman’s Hut: This hut smells of herbs and smoke.
Bushels of dried herbs and branches are hung along its walls,
and several clay pots found here contain pastes and strange
(though non-toxic) liquids.
Threats
The Himba are hunters, not warriors. For the most part,
they have remained neutral bystanders in bygone conflicts,
not understanding the plight of either side. As such, they are

like snakes — they only become a threat when threatened
themselves. If attacked, all 18 of the village’s men won’t hesitate
to respond in furious retribution.
Security
Should an agent feel the need to sneak around the village,
he must make a Move Silently check opposed by the tribes-
peoples’ Listen skills. Also, if he tries to move through the
thorn bushes, he must an Escape Artist check (DC 20/25/30/35)
or suffer 1d3 points of normal damage. The agent suffers
the same damage if he rushes through a thorn bush without
making the skill check (e.g. as part of a move action).
Troubleshooting
If the team both insults Kuratanga or the tribe, and fails
to gain leads pointing to Scene 4, they may find themselves
with no clear direction. In this case, Wiese informs them that
one of her contacts saw members of the Njambeli resistance
group enter the Caprivi with two blonde white girls. The team
can pick up from there.
Development
Ideally, the agents take the Himba seriously and believe
the shaman’s claim that the girls are in the ‘serpent valley’
by the ‘great river behind the desert’. Following this lead
takes them to Scene 4.
Scene 4: Rescue
Agent Description
Read the following aloud when the agents enter this scene.
Following the B8 national route, you arrive in the far northeast,
passing three improvised road stops manned by Namibian
soldiers. You eventually come to a permanent military post
barring the paved road towards Botswana, consisting of several
barrack buildings, a small store, and a bar. Here, the landscape
around you changes tremendously. In place of the yellow-red
savannah, you suddenly find the lush greens of a tropical
rainforest.
A large, roadside sign reads as follows.
Caprivi Game Reserve — Bagani Checkpoint.
Travelers may not leave the main road.
No accommodation or facilities available.
Distance to Kongola 190 kilometres. High-risk
malaria area. Precautions necessary.
The Caprivi was named after General Georg Leo von
Caprivi, successor to Bismarck as German Chancellor.
Please beware that game, especially kudu, roan antelopes
and elephants, can unexpectedly cross the road.
18
The presence of Armored Fighting Vehicles and several
manned, east-facing sandbag fortifications hint that some-
thing more dangerous than antelope lurks in the dense forest.
An officer in combat fatigues approaches you. “Welcome to
the Caprivi game park,” he says. “Are you looking for a con-
voy to join?”
GC Description
This scene takes place at location #4 on the Namibia map
(see pages 39–40).
The Caprivi is Namibia’s Achilles heel. Originally planned as
a direct route to the German colonies at the eastern coast of
Africa, the Caprivi now borders unstable Angola before
widening into a spearpoint flanked by Zambia to the North and
Botswana to the South. These 190 kilometers (or 120 miles) of
dense jungle are impossible to patrol, allowing bandits and
guerillas from Angola to pass through and make frequent camp
here, when the situation in Angola becomes too hot for them.
Map Key: Old SWAPO Camp
Njambeli’s camp is located toward the eastern end of this
bottleneck, at an old, dried-out confluence of the Okavango
River. Nestled between two 20-ft. high ridges to the north
and south, and a mosquito- and poisonous snake-infested
swamp to the east, the camp is well guarded by heavy
weapons and minefields.
The compound is surrounded on three sides by a razor wire
barricade, within which foot patrols beat a steady path.
Facing to the west, between the wire and the path, foxholes are
dug at irregular intervals, and to the southwest, the bandits
have dumped empty oil barrels and broken machinery parts.
The huts around the waste dump aren’t occupied. To the
southeast, a pen contains goats, and in the middle of
the compound is a well, the pump operated by hand.
The remaining huts serve as barracks, but are not fully occu-
pied. All buildings and a few of the paths are protected
against aerial observation by dense camouflage nets, casting
comfortable shadow over the whole location.
All in all, the compound resembles a village more than
a military base, its residents wearing only the loosest
uniforms and chatting, laughing, and preparing food with
little routine.
1. Vehicle Sheds: These buildings contain the villains’
vehicles, three aging box trucks and four military jeeps.
The sheds open toward the street and do not feature windows.
2. Communication Shack/Command Post: This shifty, two-
story hut is sandbagged to a height of 5 ft. from the outside.
Inside, it contains only two rooms — the lower level is filled
with radios and maps of the immediate region and the upper
level contains some antennae and a freshly installed, hi-tech
communication device that allows scrambled communication
via satellite. All of this building’s doors and windows are
unlocked. A crude, unrailed staircase is the only entry to the
upper level.

Debriefing
The main goals of this serial are rescuing the kidnapped girls,
revealing the Himba as innocent in the abduction, and sur-
viving Africa’s the natural dangers. If the agents are successful,
Herr Botschafter Beckmann throws them a discreet party upon
their return to Windhoek, which the girls miss due to medical
examinations and psychological treatment. Beckmann also
invites the agents to stay in country for a while, spending a few
days off on a safari ranch and visiting some of the worlds
highest sand dunes in the Namib desert along the coast,
or South Namibia’s spectacular diamond mines.
If given the exclusive, Anke Wiese writes an article that
has potentially far-ranging effects upon the relationship
between Namibia and its former colonial power, a small step
in the great journey toward peace in the region.
Weeks later, Control hands the agents letters from the
rescued girls, thanking the team profusely for their rescue.
Even if the agents managed to obtain a description of the
“Man in Gray” who provided the money for the operation,
nothing additional is discovered at this point. The Agency
raises its alert status by a notch in Southern Africa and bides
its time, until another threat rears its head in the region.
If there is extra time, feel free to role-play the debriefing
and have Control assess the group’s performance. Then have
the players fill out their RPGA forms and wrap up the session.

most of the time in stained safari clothing. His chin-length
hair is oiled back, but this doesn’t hide his receding hairline.
Hehsemann is slender, but possesses a slight beer belly.

Anke Wiese
Most of Namibia’s sizeable German-language community
reads Allgemeine Zeitung, including Anke Wiese’s popular
political columns, which have garnered her worldwide
recognition and several side gigs, including several spots
on international radio shows. Wiese is an idealist, believing
in a common future in which tribal traditions, modern
developments, and economic interests of all groups prosper
together. A stout defender of the Himba, Wiese has written
several articles about alcohol and tourism threatening
to destroy one of the last stone-age native societies in the
world, a cause for which she can become very pointed.
Almost 5’10” tall, Wiese is strikingly beautiful in a rough,
unpolished sense. Prominent cheekbones and an energetic
nose highlight her face. She keeps her unruly blond hair tied
back in a pigtail, generally wearing loose-fitting clothes
over her athletic frame.

African Lions
Lions only exist in number in national parks, notably the
Etosha Pan National Park. These big cats live in prides and
employ pack tactics when hunting. The lionesses lead every
hunt and the male alpha claims the first share of every kill.

Camouflage (CMF): While located in desert terrain,
a lion gains a +8 competence bonus with all Hide checks.
Pounce: During a surprise round, a lion may perform a
charge action as a half action. At any other time, a lion may
charge as a full action (as standard), but attacks once with
each of its natural weapons at the end of the charge.
32
Primal (PRI): A lion’s carnivorous instincts make it excep-
tionally dangerous to work with. The error ranges of all Handle
Animal skill checks targeting the animal are increased by 5.
Additionally, the DCs of all Handle Animal skill checks made
to domesticate the animal are doubled. Finally, all Intimidate
checks targeting the animal suffer a –8 circumstance penalty.
Savage Attack: A lion’s natural weapons enable it to carve
a bloody trail of destruction through its opponents. When the
lion is located in a square adjacent to 1 or more opponents
at the start of its initiative count, the animal may take 1 full
action to make 1 attack with each of its natural weapons,
targeting any number of adjacent opponents with them (up
to the number of natural weapons the lion possesses). Each
attack suffers a penalty equal to the number of opponents
the lion targets +1.
Scene 3: African Mysteries
The following NPCs are encountered during Scene 3 and
later as described in the serial text.

husbandry, but the arid region in which they live doesn’t
allow for agriculture. Thus, they are expert hunter-gatherers.

and hide taken from animals they hunt. They rub their skin
and hair with a mixture red clay and fat, providing their skin
a warm brown-red hue. They never openly assault their prey,
rather stalking and striking at just the right moment. Himba
are not usually aggressive unless provoked.
