It is 1878, and the city of London has been stolen by bats. Decades ago it was dragged from the surface to a snug spot in the giant subterranean cavern called the 'Neath, on the westernmost coast of the Zee, the flat, murky ocean of beasties and nightmares. Industry booms and commerce rules, centered around the massive Bazaar, ruled by the 12 [13?] Masters of Industry. Devils mingle with humans, visiting their Londoner neighbors from their infernal abodes, constantly searching for souls to take. Men awake from drownings, gentlemen walk the streets with the heads of squids or dogs or snakes. Zee-captains bring news of the deadly archipelagos of the Zee and monsters from inside mirrors devour dreams. All the while the average Londoner tries to scrape a living in his hostile new reality. This particular game welcomes people who are not familiar with Echo Bazaar and its FUCKING INCREDIBLE lore. It will be focused on characters who are recently arriving in London from one place or another, and from there the story will be mostly in the hands of the players. You could chase the deranged Jack-of-Smiles, court a Quiet Deviless, Move in the Great Game, engage in a hearty game of Knife-and-Candle, explore the ends of the Zee or any thing else one sets their mind to. The game is running on Tavern-Keeper, because it is better for a game that is PbP and without a tabletop. Come on and join!
