I highly recommend Victoriana. Beyond having a game system that's well suited to Victorian-era gaming, it has tons of relevant information for running a game in the period. There's a great timeline in there that has all kinds of inventions, with a line in the middle for 1867, so you can easily...

"You're looking fatigued, Dargun," says Renard. "Contact with the Roper's fluids will do that. Let me take care of that for you." Renard produces a scroll from his weather-beaten leather scrollcase. As he intones the holy words written on the scroll, Dargun lifts up a few inches from the...

"A depiction of Jergal, Scribe of the Doomed," explains Renard. "His followers are rather more interested in the eternity of afterlife than the transience of present. Once the most powerful god of death, he voluntarily relinquished that position, and perhaps other powers, in order to tend to...

Thanks for your patience, guys! Sorry about the slow posting recently. I had Pinder and Sessay join you all in the white, barren room. Since I'm no saint when it comes to timely posting, I won't begin to fault ethandrew :p. It makes the most sense to just have him join the group, so it'll be...

Scurrying along behind, Pinder and Sessay hopped across the rapidly crumbling bridge Khalil had made.

Vorrin examined the room top to bottom, but found nothing but bare, white walls, lit in dim green light by the brain floating in a glass globe in the middle of the room. After a minute or so of determined searching, he felt a presence in his mind, like a wooden block stamping ideas into his...

Renard looks over the room and doorways, maintaining his spell to detect any magical auras present.

"I'm detecting a quite strong necromantic effect," says Renard. "Death magic. Talhia, would you be so kind as to dispel the effect? I'll need to spend some time in prayer before I can unweave another enchantment."

His heart full of exultation, Khalil strode toward the door through which his companions had escaped. His head held high, priestly vestments flowing behind him, he stepped forward with poise as the ground rose up out of the churning madness to meet his stride. Pursuant to his Key of the...

That's fantastic! You and I are completely on the same wavelength here; that's exactly the kind of stuff I was hoping to see from your character. As an aside, if you haven't read the Burton translation of The Arabian Nights yet, you're in for a real treat.

To his astonishment, Khalil found the floor around him once again stable, as he willed himself to believe in a ground beneath his feat. To his dismay, however, he felt the air around him become extremely thin, and found he couldn't concentrate well enough to imagine both solid ground and a...

Vorrin leaped into the next room, and found himself standing in a large, empty, well-lit room. Like the others, this room was lit by a glowing brain encased in glass. It seemed unfinished, with only bare white plaster all around. Feleghost dashed into the room they had appeared in, just as the...

Renard nods to Aden, bows his head, and closes his eyes. He utters a short prayer invoking Oghma's wisdom, raises his head, and opens his eyes to reveal glowing green pupils. He glances around the room, looking around for mystic auras. Renard will continue to maintain the spell for the full 10...

Vorrin backed away, keeping his eyes on the slime growing on the stone countertop. Time froze as he came to a startling conclusion. It wasn't the slime that was quivering--it was the light behind him. The glowing brain dangling from the dome's apex flickered quickly, then abruptly stopped...
