...behold Carazndar, the Last Cit...random example:<br /><br />...behold Carazndar, the Last City! Before the End Times, it floated through the heavens, held aloft by draconic sorcery. When the Gods cursed the mortal for their arrogance, the Dragon Cities were hurled to earth by the Fall of the Skies.<br /><br />Now, it crawls across the ruins of a broken world, lifted up on legs powered by fomorian death magics. The rulers of the City count amongst their number the last true Dragon, in addition to fomorian necromancers, drow shadow-priests, and aranean weaver-queens.<br /><br />The populace of the City slave away for the great salvage combines, subsisting on rations of god-starch and lembas-crumbs. Those who fail to make ends meet are either warped by drow flesh-shapers into more useful slaves, or taken beneath the decks by the fomorian necromancers and turned into zombie-engines for the City. And of course, the youngest and strongest are impressed by the mercenary companies that serve the City's council, sent off to fight the never-ending war agains the mad angels who mourn their dead gods.<br /><br />The proles find hope in the works of the Humanist movement, who seek to win the right of humans to sit on the City's ruling Council and own property, and in the promise of the New Faith, whose prophet speaks of an end to suffering through abandonment of material desires. But the Prophet has long since been replaced by one of the council's Aranea shape-shifters, and the leaders of the Humanist movement are hunted by the warped scorpion-beasts of the drow across the lower decks of the City.TheLoneAmigohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00984096812960996717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7554702397904782938.post-50420381076661465732012-06-29T20:04:09.492+10:002012-06-29T20:04:09.492+10:00Fantastic, keeping an eye on this!Fantastic, keeping an eye on this!Roger G-Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594440701279968693noreply@blogger.com
