I've only recently delved into the world of Thief Fan Missions. Among the amazing authors I've come to discover Lady Rowena, whose creations encapsulate the manifolded Thief universe.
Rowena's Curse has Garrett investigating the mysterious disappearance of Lord Carlysle's daughter Isabella (as well as at least two maids). As in any outstanding Thief mission, the plot fulfills an invaluable role for the gameplay, requiring you (in classic Thief-style) to read scrolls and diaries/books in order to find useful clues as to how to progress, requiring some backtracking and exploration of the environments. The map has all the indispensable elements that make mansion settings (one of my personal favorites) great: marble floors, secret entries, several guards, a nicely developed story filled with intrigues and betrayals which gives flesh and blood to what otherwise would be mere aristocratic NPCs.
As expected from its title, the supernatural factor comes into play story and gameplaywise, giving a sense of spookiness and mystery surrounding the reason behind the disappearances.
Certainly a must play for any Thief enthusiast.
