City on the Edge of Nowhere

Dramaguhl – a labyrinthine ancient city, built on its own receding and crumbling history.
Once it ruled a vast empire, but that time is a distant past. Now, the city looks inwards. Dramaguhl is still rich with the wealth of lost empire, hidden secrets and ancient sorceries. In this giant playground, nobles plot and scheme as they dream of the past and better days ahead.

One of these nobles is prepared to declare himself god-king, gaining a form of mystical ascendance in a coming ritual. He has gathered followers, and has powerful magic at his disposal, dark magic which exerts a terrible cost. Few are willing or able to resist his rise, or know what it would mean for Dramaguhl.

But you are determined to end the threat, whatever the cost. You have an idea of the terrors that will ensue, not just of the ascendance ritual itself, but also of the unending tyranny which will inevitably follow.

In this game, there are two tables of freedom fighters, with two game masters, following interlinked stories which may come together at the end of play.
