Mists of Akuma: Soburin Primer (Shadow of the Demon Lord)
 |
Mists of Akuma It has been over three and a half millennia since the dawn of mankind. Monsoons have become more and more common with the reappearance of the roiling¸ demon-spewing Mists of Akuma¸ and the sun's light grows duller with every day that passes after the end of the War of Kaiyo more than a century ago. A pall of darkness has fallen on Soburin and even its greatest heroes are mired in the petty intrigues and never-ending slights of aggressive clans vying for influence¸ power¸ or more territory. Spellswords and mercenaries across the countryside in search of fortune¸ leaving the poor and meek to fend for themselves or die in the harsh reality of a broken world where technology has been either abandoned as heresy or perilously embraced. Brave the lands of Soburin and earn your place as a master of one of the great clans¸ oust an oni warlord to carve out your own fiefdom¸ turn a fortune from the many heretical technology black markets¸ or make your name a thing to be feared by besting the world's greatest swordsmen!
