Shadowdark: Homebrew Campaign

[claedawg]

<t:1780272000:F>

Ironbridge is a sprawling metropolitan trade nexus built around the ancient black span that crosses the great river. Caravans, river barges, mercenary companies, pilgrims, nobles, thieves, slavers, gamblers, priests, smugglers, and crawlers all pass through its gates. If something can be bought, sold, signed, hidden, blessed, cursed, or buried, someone in Ironbridge knows the price.

The city calls itself Lawful, and in a narrow sense, it is. Contracts are sacred. Debts are enforced. Tolls are recorded. Civic officers are protected. Ledgers carry the weight of scripture. But Ironbridge’s Law does not mean mercy, justice, or decency. It means order. It means ownership. It means the rich can purchase silence, the powerful can license vice, and almost anything is permitted if the proper seal, tax, or bribe has been paid.

Here, Law and Chaos do not war openly. They do business.

Special Info
We use a few house rules for armor, backgrounds, ancestries and other situations.
AI is heavily used.
The starting players wanted to start off as slaves in the local Red Ring Arena. So, you must be comfortable with that situation.
This city is a place where Law and Chaos have teamed up to make an "almost" everything goes society, and therefore, dangerous location for those without money or connections.
