A dead god hangs in the sky over the once glorious capital of AetherLight. The World-Slayer had come and despite the risk the kingdom of Aether rallied their vast military and magical power. As fiends fell upon the world like a wicked rain, Er-Atan descended on the capital himself. Intent on making the palace the base of his throne. No one suspected that he would fail. The gaping wound in his chest bleeds still after a century since the wars end. The corpse-forms of his mighty generals scar the land. Ishva the Devourer was slain in a cataclysmic explosion that left a burned skull the size of a small mountain with the remains of his axe shattered and melted to the bones of the right hand. The only things to survive his unmaking. There are other wounds in the world. The characters are Corpse-Delvers. They risk entering the remains of the largest fiends for arcane materials and other components. As the heart of Kishin the Cruel and her fires of hate now used to forge new relics. AetherLight, the Blighted City, is the greatest prize of all. Before his defeat partial conversion to his throne had begun. The city a twisted hell-scape with the impossible of the corpse-form floating only 100 feet above the top of the palace. So close but also just far enough. This is what the characters will be working towards. Delving AetherLight. But first their legends must grow. From the small enclave of Lora-Ni, they set out to the Field of the Dead where the 10th Aether Corps fell against General Tavix, they are after the Heart of Tavix. - - - - - - - - - - Character Creation Stats: 3d6 12 times, choose best 6 Race: Any core race Classes: Anything from the TSR published material
