A Portent of Things to Come
Only a few days had passed since the Dread Admiral had overseen the wildly chaotic Battle of Drepane. The Illyrians had shown up as expected, but what had been quite unexpected was the amount of damage that his fleet has taken in the nights leading up to this confrontation and the interference of the leviathan … Continue reading A Portent of Things to Come
The Lambs
The dreadfully dark and monstrous cathedral rose from a city that was as curiously devoid of color as it was the vibrancy of life. The shadowy metropolis resembled the Fanolanian capital of Avondace in the general sense of how it was designed and built, and yet it had none of the glittery grandeur that the … Continue reading The Lambs
Archbishop to Archduke Six. Check.
The normal buzz of energy that flowed through the Divine Hall of the Supreme Pontiff and Imperator of the Dominion was stronger than it usually was.

Sauerkraut & the Devil
Jugarthy sat on his porch and listened to the brewing cauldron inside of his small, rickety shop. He didn't have the money for putting fancy glass in his windows, so the open windows allowed the free passage of air to flow in and out of the shop. Inside the shop Jugarthy had set up a … Continue reading Sauerkraut & the Devil
The Black Marbles
Among the dubious umbrella term of "organized criminal" elements none are as widely spread across the continent of Partum as the Black Marbles. Commonly thought to exist only in the lands and realms surrounding the Forzarrean Sea, it is well known among authorities in these areas that the Black Marbles are more scattered, and perhaps … Continue reading The Black Marbles
Infamous Villains: The Dread Admiral
Other than the Viceroy who had no set base of operations for much of his existence, there is no member of the foul Diosian Lodge more widely travelled than the Dread Admiral. This lich is a fearsome monster due to the fact that his location is never known for sure. Unlike many of his kind … Continue reading Infamous Villains: The Dread Admiral
Help Wanted
The captain of the three-masted sohar stepped carefully, almost methodically down the gangplank to the dock. His name was Divo Zucco, and he had named his ship "The Sea Hag" in recognition of the terror that his late mother-in-law had instilled in him. Captain Zucco took a few minutes to adjust to the solid ground … Continue reading Help Wanted
