I havn't noticed you around, and since I saw Reanjr has an administrator tag, I figured you might have gone away.. Glad to see you haven't.Unfortunately I don't have much to add at this point. I'm still percolating ideas for plotlines. Falkus, I intend to run my game before the events of The Dark Project, and to go so far as to say that the events therein aren't going to happen as such.The Trickster is imprisoned in The Maw of Chaos, and has been since the Builder's faithful placed him there, long ago. In that time, much has come to order, and much has come to stagnancy. The time has come for a change.Victoria, the powerful pagan druidess, has stumbled across a way to open the gate to the Maw, and bring the Trickster forth from his prison. Seeking to glorify her god, she starts to collect the components necessary for the ritual. (I haven't decided what she'll need, but I figure it will require some toys from the bonehoard, things from a few private collections, and an ancient Hammerite hammer to smash the gate open with. Good adventure material, especially since many of the sites are already mapped out for me.)Ramerez is making a power play to take over larger portions of the City and expand into the other Wardens' territiry. So far the Hammerites have been a roadblock, but events are being set into motion that will allow him to move behind their backs.. Or maybe even with their concent.The Hammerite High Priest, Markander, is old, sick, and dying. The next High riest is supposed to be chosen by him before his death, but he is undecided. Multiple factions are forming, each vying to gain power within the order. Some of these factions are willing to do unscrupulous things to get it, too. There's hushed talk of assassination, but the 'current administration' believes no such thing could occur.  It's only a matter of time until something comes to a head.The Hand Brotherhood, insular as ever, has recently had a break in. One of their own, a man known as Azaran the Cruel, exiled for practicing necromancy, has come and aquired a tome known as the Book of Ash. This necromantic artifact contains a powerful evil, and has caught the attention of another evil power. After the book was brought to the spire in dayport, the Eye felt it's presence. Extending it's influence over the city once again, the Eye is causing the City's dead to rize again, as it did 50 years ago. Imprisoned in the Hammerite Cathedral in the barricaded part of the Old Quarter, the Eye has lost much of it's power, but its proximity to the Book of Ash and a man foolish enough to tamper with Necromancy is encouraging it to expend what effort it can to bring Azaran to it.. Or it to Azaran.That's the hand I'm playing with at the moment. I'm not sure where to go from here with the PC's, but, that has a way of falling into place, I suppose. How Ramerex would start taking over, I'm not 100% sure on, but I can probably wing it.  Anyone have any ideas/criticism for me?- Kemrain the First Time GM. (First REAL Time, Anyways.)</blockquote>
