Empires rise and fall, but Sanctuary lives on!
Sanctuary, a lawless city governed by evil forces, powerful magic, and political intrigue.
The Age of the Rankin reign of Kadakithis, the occupation of the Beysib, and indeed the erstwhile Renaissance are all in the past. It is years later and the legendary figures of Jubal, Tempus, Shadowspawn, and the Stormchildren are now just memories, myth, and rumor.
But the city and its people live on. A new pantheon of personalities have moved in and are making their mark on this dark and dangerous city.
Meet these denizens of the city where just surviving is a full-time occupation.
Meet Halott the Necromancer, Latilla--daughter of the legendary artist Lalo the Limmer, Dysan the short and scrappy thief, Jake the rat, and a host of others.
Return to Sanctuary and let the games begin!
