Apeworld On Fire | Burning Dragon by Atlas Games
- SYSTEM: Feng Shui 2
- PRODUCT TYPE: softcover action movie adventure
- RETAIL PRICE: $15.95 each
- DESCRIPTION: In Apeworld on Fire Pontius Primate, religious psychopomp of the New Simian Army, has sent his cyber-ape holy warriors back through time intent on kidnapping the scientists he needs to perfect a terrible mind-control gas. In hot pursuit across the Wastelands, the PCs chase them back to the future. The chase will take them into the very heart of the simian capital of Apeworld and deep into the hidden laboratories beneath Pontius Primate’s cyber-fortress. Includes a car chase through the Netherworld, a visit to Waystation (the last great free city in the Wasteland), combat in the legendary Gladiator Bowl against the King and Donkey, and an opportunity to lead an armed uprising against the tyrants of Apeworld. In Burning Dragon, the PCs explore the myriad events of a vibrant, chaotic festival. Burning Dragon is a raw celebration of creative talent and Mongolian culture to “forge the dragon” — creating a temporary city dedicated to art, age-old athletic competitions, and extravagant performances. This year, however, it has been suborned by Damien Wu — festival organizer, Triad big shot, and secret Eater of the Lotus sorcerer. When the dragon effigy burns during the closing ceremonies, Wu will use a blood sacrifice to harness the attendees’ souls and reawaken the ancient feng shui site that smolders beneath the festival grounds unless the PCs defeat him in a firework-festooned finale.
