Description

Horror Roleplaying in the world ofClockwork & Chivalry. England has descended into civil war. The earth is tainted by alchemical magick. Giant clockwork war machines lumber across the land. In the remote countryside, witches terrorise entire villages, while in the hallowed halls of great universities, natural philosophers uncover the secrets of nature. War, plague and religious division make peoples lives a constant misery. But even greater threats exist. Witches whisper of the old gods. Royalist alchemists pore over John Dees forbidden translation of theNecronomicon, dreaming of powers that will allow them to win the war. Parliamentarian engineers consult with creatures from beyond the crystal spheres and build blasphemous mechanisms, unholy monuments to their alien overlords. Vast inter-dimensional beings seek entry into the world, while their human servants, corrupted, crazed and enslaved, follow the eldritch agendas of their hidden masters.
