Ascension - Rebellion (Inactive)

Game Master bbangerter

The Mageocracy has ruled for many years, but they care little for the people. They ignore that the roads have become dangerous for innocent travelers. They silence all reports of the dark happenings inside their tower walls. But there are those who know the truth, of their corruption by greed and power, and they are determined to wrest control away from the mages and reveal them for what they are.

Map of the southern part of the kingdom

Current Rumors:

The old watch tower ruins south of the city are haunted. Long ago the guards took a witch prisoner and tortured her to death. With her dying words she cursed the entire tower. The spirits of both the witch and her captures still inhabit it.

Be careful around the sewers drains and grates around the city, the sewers are inhabited by giant rats.

Some crazed wizard caused an oak tree to grow overnight in the western slums the other night. The wizard destroyed a home when she did it.

Radgar the Butcher has returned. He murdered two dozen people the other night. Best not to be out at night or he will find you.

Travel to the Ioso islands is no longer safe. Pirates sail the seas and are taking captive all those they run into and selling them into slavery.
