Here’s the vignette I posted at the head of my Game Announcement for the new Lockout game, which I called Tinderbox- Aftermath of the Tran. “The peals of the bells marked the first moment most of us knew that there was something wrong. It’s not as though we ever saw any of the Tran, unless […]
The Kingdom of Silks is a well-ordered society on the whole, where etiquette and poise are paramount. Many different schools of philosophical thought contend for commercial and mystic authority, but overall the society has advanced beyond inter-faction violence.

I ported some of the racial stuff over from another campaign I wrote, specifically the coloration of the dragonborn and the orcish feats. I’m not […]
Eventually I’ll have flavor text for all of this, but I started writing individual, kingdom-specific flavor for each class and nearly blacked out.
