Exploring the Workshop
The workshop is a “T” shaped building, with
Santa’s office on the right side of the “T” and
an entry foyer across from it. A coat rack near
the entry foyer holds elf-sized coats, hats, and
boots, just the right size for the heroes.
The bottom part of the “T” is an immense
workshop with rows of long work tables and
benches — sized for someone very small —
littered with various woodworking tools and
partially-constructed toys. The room is dimly
lit by old-fashioned kerosene lamps, yet it is
dark and cold. A chill wind and snow blow in
through a broken window.
Various tools and toys in the warehouse can
work as Improvised Weapons — hammers,
chisels, screwdrivers, wooden posts.
Handfuls of nails or jacks can be scattered on
the floor, creating Difficult Terrain in a Small
Burst Template.
Lurking in here is Gutbug the goblin,
one of the Clan Filthfoot goblins recruited
by Krampus to replace the workforce of
stubborn arctic elves. Gutbug heard the
kids moving around the building, and is
now trying to escape and warn Krampus. If
he succeeds, Krampus sends goblins (one
per hero) after the kids with instructions to
capture them and lock them in the coal bin in
the cellar of Santa’s House (this the fate of any
kid captured by goblins or tin soldiers during
the course of the adventure).
If Gutbug is interrogated, he does his best to
lie. He’s cowardly, however, so if threatened
he spills his guts immediately:
• Krampus has captured Santa Claus and
locked him away for good. He stole Santa’s
“Wand of the Winter Winds” and now
Krampus runs the North Pole!
• Krampus has claimed Santa’s house for
himself, trapping Ms. Claus with him.
• The elves refused to work for Krampus
and barricaded themselves inside their
barracks.
• The flying reindeer have been sealed inside
their stables so they’ll starve — then be a
tasy meal for the goblins!
Gutbug has an iron key to the coalbin on a
chain around his neck.

9, but give him Persuasion d6.
Part 2: Santa
Claus Lane
One Foggy Krampus Eve
Outside the Workshop, the kids enter the
arctic environment of the North Pole. The
night sky is lit by the eerie glow of the aurora
borealis blazing blue and green overhead. It’s
very cold, and a heavy snow is falling.
Despite the lack of light (this time of year
the sun never rises), it is only Dim (–2) out
here because of the aurora borealis and lamps
on the buildings. The kids easily see four
buildings arranged in a rough square about
60” (20 yards) across. Aside from the huge
T-shaped workshop behind them, to their
left is a fancy, Victorian-style house with a
big wrap-around porch. It is decorated for
Christmas, only the decorations are shredded
and in disarray and the house is dark. Directly
across from the kids is a long, low building
almost completely buried by ice and snow.
To the right is a small, steep-roofed house
with a lone candle burning in a window on
the second floor. Dead center between all of
the buildings is an ice-draped sign shaped
like a candy cane that says “NORTH POLE.”
The temperature outside is well below
freezing. Unless the kids are bundled up
in the elves’ coats, hats, and boots from the
workshop, they are subject to the effects of
cold weather (see Savage Worlds). All outside
locations are considered Difficult Ground
due to deep snowdrifts.
The old house is Santa’s house. The low,
snowbound building is the reindeer stable,
and the building with the candle is the elf
barracks. These locations are described in
greater detail below.
If Gutbug escaped, a Notice (+2) roll spots
his tracks leading through the snow straight
to Santa’s house. By now he has warned
Krampus, so any goblins in the compound
are on alert.
Should the kids head directly to Santa’s
house to confront the Krampus, they are
likely to be in for a fight. The Krampus has
goblins with him and may have been warned
about them by Gutbug. Even if the kids take
them by surprise, it won’t be an easy fight.
Their best bet is to acquire some allies…

The Reindeer Stables

This long, shed-like structure is almost
completely buried by snow drifts, preventing
access to the large doors on both ends.
Something heavy is pounding on the walls
inside. A lone tin soldier mindlessly patrols
the stables, marching a circle around it in a
path of its own making.
Until it is dealt with, the soldier prevents
the kids from simply digging away the snow,
a task which takes the better part of an hour.
The kids are the right size to slip through a
rooftop chimney, though. With the snow
drifts providing easy access ot the roof, this
requires only a Stealth roll to avoid alerting
the tin soldier.

Part 3: Battle for
the North Pole
SAVAGE WORLDS
Unless Krampus has been warned by Gutbug,
he isn’t expecting any trouble. He is sitting on
Santa’s “throne” in the parlor, gloating over
his success, with several goblins fawning at
his feet. Mrs. Claus is locked in an upstairs
bedroom guarded by another goblin.
If Krampus was warned, he moves Mrs.
Claus downstairs, threatening to freeze her
with the Wand of Winter Winds as a last
ditch ploy.
Krampus delights in inflicting pain, and
cackles with glee at the kids’ attempts to
oppose him. He has no mercy, no conscience,
and no compunction against fighting
children. Of course, being a stereotypical
megalomaniac, Krampus can’t help but
gloat about his success in trapping Santa and
abducting the kids. He tells them outright
that his plan is to corrupt them into cruel
child warriors— the “Krampus-kinder.”
In order to free Santa, the kids have to get
the Wand of the Winter Winds away from
Krampus. They can easily see it: it’s about a
foot long and looks like a crystal-clear icicle
thrust through his belt. He won’t use it on the
kids unless things become desperate.
During the battle, any freed reindeer and
recruited elves engage with the goblins,
allowing the heroes to focus on Krampus and
his tin soldiers.

The Mountains at the
End of the World
As soon as a kid gets her hands on the Wand
of the Winter Winds, one of the reindeer flips
her onto his back and takes to the air. The
wand tells the kid holding it where Santa is
located. If able, the other reindeer follow suit,
taking one hero each. Krampus can also fly,
so if he’s still in the fight he takes to the sky
in pursuit, bellowing in rage.

Run this chase as a nonlethal Quick
Encounter. Since the reindeer are faster than
Krampus, they make their rolls at +1.
Success means they arrive at their
destination ahead of Krampus, granting them
just enough time to deal with the cave-in
before he arrives. Failure means they must
face Krampus in one final showdown outside
the cave where Santa is trapped!
Snowed In
Following the directions given by the Wand
of the Winter Winds, the reindeer soar over
the frozen lands of the North Pole for almost
a half hour before descending near the top of
a snow-capped mountain. At the foot of a cliff
is a massive mound of ice and snow.
Behind this icy debris is the cave in which
Santa, Rudolph, and two elves are held
prisoner. A single use of the Wand of the
Winter Wind’s burst or havoc powers is
enough to move the blockage. Otherwise
the kids will need to do it themselves. This
laborious task can’t be done in a hurry. If
Krampus is still in pursuit, he arrives before
they can finish.
Conclusion
Once Santa is free, it’s all over for Krampus.
He can’t take Santa in a fair fight on a good
day, especially if Santa has the Wand of the
Winter Winds. Upon defeating Krampus,
Santa seals him up again in the ice cave,
vowing to return and deal with him more
thoroughly after the kids have been returned
safely home.
Santa lets the children keep the toys they
found in the workshop. He also presents
them each with a snow globe they can use to
contact him should they ever need his help.
It is still Christmas Eve, however, and Santa
has a job to do! As their last reward, he lets the
kids ride along with him on his delivery run
and drops them off at home. If the kids check
their alarm clocks, they notice that hardly any
time at all has passed. In fact, if it weren’t for
their new snow globe, they’d have a hard time
believing it wasn’t all some crazy dream…

Allies and
Adversaries
Tin Soldier
Tin soldiers are animated objects, giant toys
that have been corrupted by the Krampus
and now serve him. They resemble clichéd
tin soldiers painted with red jackets, white
pants, black boots, and tall black hats. Their
smiling faces have been painted with “angry
eyebrows,” making them look as if they are
scowling with malevolent glee.

„ Fearless: Immune to Fear and Intimidation.
„ Pop Gun: Tin soldiers are armed with toy
rifles that shoot a cork on a string. Krampus
has driven ten-penny nails through the
otherwise harmless corks to turn them
into weapons. After each shot, the cork
must be plugged back into the barrel of the
pop gun, which takes two actions. Use the
Disarm rules (see Savage Worlds) to grab a
discharged cork before it can be reloaded.
„ Stiff Limbs: Tin soldiers have stiff legs
and arms jointed only at the shoulder and
elbow. They can’t run, and standing up
from prone costs all of their movement.
Goblin
When Santa’s arctic elves refused to work for
the Krampus, they earned his ire. He brought
in the Filthfoot goblin clan to act as his extras.
Being goblins, they all have nasty names like
Bogslop, Muddytongue, Nosefinger, and so
on. They are clad in rough woolen tunics and
trousers, heavy boots with iron tips, and fur
cloaks to keep out the cold. Each is armed
with a cruel long knife.

Arctic Elf
Arctic elves, also called “tinker elves,” are a
race of diminutive folk who dwell in secluded
valleys and underground complexes far to
the north. Their origin and history unknown,
arctic elves are the rarest and most reclusive
of all elf races. An arctic elf is about three feet
tall. They wear green tunics and red breeches.
Males frequently sport white beards that
reach almost to their knees.
Arctic elves are industrious and hard
working, always busy, and never let a spare
moment go by in which they aren’t working
on some plan or craft. Arctic elves aren’t great
fighters, as they are so isolated that potential
enemies rarely reach them.

Flying Reindeer
Flying reindeer resemble normal reindeer in
all respects, but have the supernatural ability
to fly without wings. They have thick, tawny
coats to stay warm in their arctic habitat.
Flying reindeer are exceptionally smart,
capable of understanding speech and
directions. They cannot speak, however,
regardless of their comprehension.
