Starting his journey into madness began with the purchase of rare books, which drew the attention of a young woman skilled in the arts of herbalism and magic (read: a witch).

The girl was transformed into the likeness of the fishmen while destroying the human portion of her mind, and is their queen/mother/slave. He lured the girl to the pier and shackled her to an idol, both of which were the Ancestor's end of the deal in exchange for gems to fund his ambition. So when he needed money to fund his newfound Eldritch fascination he cut a deal with the fishmen (not fish ermen, Kuo-Toa style humanoid fish) who lived on the coast.

As a child a small homeless girl had a crush on the Ancestor while he played in the town, which was nice when he was a kid but as a young man he found her irritating.

Well, that and a zealot called the Fanatic who your Ancestor was aware of and is obsessed with purging the Curse by attacking any party with at least one cursed individual.

Ignoring them results in the vampirism spreading, called the Crimson Curse, which has very little effect on heroes other than making them constantly need blood to avoid stacking debuffs and irrational behavior plus eventually death if unsated. They now break loose periodically requiring you to send heroes to eliminate one of the original members of the court to send the creatures back to the swamps for awhile. As the mosquitos were lured by the blood, the wine, and the bloody wine, the Ancestor sealed the Courtyard away where it has since sunk back into the swamp and contained the now mosquito/vampire hybrid court (oh and speaking of which, the vampires of this setting turn into mosquitos rather than bats in a fashion that would be fit for Nurgle. After enjoying his new 'Really Bloody Mary' invention, the attending nobles and servants all became vampires and tore their own bodies to pieces while the Ancestor, who had only drunk a single drop of blood, gained a vision of the Eldritch horrors that lay beneath his mansion and began his obsession with them. He then promptly did what any sane, rational being would do and hung her upside-down to drain out all her cursed blood, mixed it with a prized vintage of wine, and threw a party.

She revealed herself as a vampire but he succeeded at killing her.

One day an attractive woman appeared and fluidly navigated the assembled nobles.so the Ancestor tried to kill her.

In his youth, he enjoyed the debauchery and general 120 Days Of Sodom (don't look it up if you don't know it already) behavior of the nobility in the courtyard of the estate.

The quote at the top of the page is something of an understatement in regards to the background of the game.

Using the last of your family's money, you have returned to the estate to begin hiring adventurers to try to and clear out the dark things lurking in the dungeon, gathering the riches that lie beneath to finance further and further expeditions beneath.ДЄfter all, not all of your explorers will return alive, or even sane. The only (mostly) safe place is the Hamlet, which acts as the hub area of the game.

This resulted in your family estate becoming the site of a sprawling excavation project filled with horrible monsters, while the surrounding lands are similarly corrupted, populated by nightmares of the Ancestor's own creation. You are the last scion of a fallen noble family, one brought to ruin by a hedonistic ancestor who squandered the family fortune pursuing decadence and ultimately turned to dark pursuits in search of forbidden pleasures.
