Nuance
"If I can lead a man to accept even the smallest of evils, the tiniest of moral compromises, then all I have to do to lead them to their utter ruin is to induce them to accept greater and more formidable exceptions to their moral code. By subtle nuance I can take a man from … Continue reading Nuance
This Sickle is No Tool
She was known to those who sought her as "The Sickle", and this was the nickname her closest confidants used when speaking to her.

Building a Better Mouse Trap
There is a common misconception in life that the most frustrating thing is an adventurer trying to get past a cunningly diabolical trap designed to do them unspeakable harm.

Callidus Magna had left the security and opulence of his sprawling palace in order to personally witness for himself the drama that was soon to transpire in the northern realm of Escaut. He had been alerted to the developing situation by his most capable underling, the lich that was now being referred to in the … Continue reading A Show of Divine Power
A Gift Befitting a King
There were fewer attendants in this version of the Divine Hall of the Supreme Pontiff and Imperator Callidus Magna than there were in the other, more commonly used one but this was still an impressive locale. Things were a bit skewed, though. The colors tended to lean more towards grays and dull metallic features were … Continue reading A Gift Befitting a King
