Roy [Amedessa]
Shell [Gideon]
Christie [Sarafina]
This RPG takes place approximately 300 years after the reign of Roald II and Shinkokami. Since then, Tortall has remained the most prominent power in the Eastern Lands and alongside with its Yamani allies, has advanced in technology and begun to explore the distant shores of the Western Reaches.
In 703 HE, King Artagan II––the last living male descendant and heir of the Conté line––died and the throne was thrust upon the head of his eldest daughter, Amedessa Elestra. Although not shy of female figures taking charge, not all in Tortall are comfortable with being ruled by a queen and some are concerned about to whom the Crown will go to next. The nobility in Corus are especially worried about the condition of Tortall as a state, under and after Amedessa's reign. If she fails to produce or choose an adequate heir, Tortall could endure a bloody revolution like that of its neighbour, Tusaine, in which the royalty and aristocracy were mercilessly executed by the common people.
While Corus basks in the concerns of the "Old World", Port Caynn is becoming well acquainted with the "New". It is a city brimming with diversity, activity and violence, welcoming pirates and foreigners, traders and gangsters, the Rogue and the Shang.

THE LION'S DEN
The Lion's Den is a casino run by Dreg Fawkes and his two cousins, Harker and Eli. It is a playground for the wealthy and the would-be lucky, a den of leisure, pleasure and luxury. Here a man can either win or lose great sums of money––as well as pride.
Inside the Lion's Den, only corrupt men survive, innocent naïvitée will find you trouble no sooner than you've stepped within. Mobsters meet here regularly and arrange the trade of contraband goods or timely deaths of certain persons. Cross paths, make deals or fall into debts with the wrong people and you could wind up dead in Shiner's Alley.
