[QUOTE="Nyaricus, post: 3554925, member: 35678"] hmmm, interesting take on things (I'd totally play it :D). Here's a couple bits from my campaign setting [i]Ascension: Paths of Power[/i] you're free to incorporate as ye wish: The Induskian Horsebrothers: A vast expanse of plains can be found to the south and east of the Craggy Peak Range, a formidable range of mountains which start out far to the south and head almost due north before turning east for a long stretch. In the lee of this range lies the vast nomadic empire of the Induskians - a people I've based mainly off the Huns and Mongols of earth's history. These men are an extension of their saddle, and live rough-and-tumble lives on their verdant plains and rugged steppes. But now a great warlord (a Khan if you care to get cliched like me ;)) has banded together these disparate tribes and now wishes to expand a broken empire into a world-dominating force. These canny horse warriors have now begun to scout the southern expanses of Amneron (my Europe-analogue) and the people in these south areas feel the whispers of war heading their way. Thus far, however, nothing has come of it - but the fear is growing. Can the PCs help defend the southern borders against the combined forces of the Indusk? The Lyonsgate Crisis: Lyonsgate is a northern city of Tûllan's (a Scandinavian analogue) which is quite settled and civilised compared to their Skav brethren who raid the southern cities - their have a sewer system in place, wide avenues and very well-kept cities. Recently though [last half-year], there has been a heart-wrenching and terrible outbreak of undead; babes are being stolen from their cribs, are killed and then risen up as abominations - only to be replaced in their sleeping quaters. These flesh-eating tots kill and kill until killed themselves, and their undead nature can be spread if a victim survives an attack. Mandatory curfews have been set in place by the Mayor, and the Night Watch has increased greatly in number. The once robust city now is bent under an aura of fear and trade has been slowly decreasing, leaving the city even more vulnerable then before. Can the PCs find who (or what) is behind these baby-killers and necromancers, as it seems to be? I'll post more as I think of it. cheers, --N [/QUOTE]
