GamingMegaverse

So what is next for you Jim Mount?

I can tell you that. Jim will be running for his life. Jim's precious Chicago is being invaded by aliens and X-Com agents in a desperate search for a mite-y alien artifact, the Sexton of Worlds.

Not that he will be able to run far since President Trump has walled off Chicago to contain the usually high number of humans mutating into Orks and Trolls in Chicago.

Port in a Storm!

Finally, the Castaways have reached the mainland!

With some much needed rest in reach, can our heroes sleep easy when the serpentine Satanica takes center stage?

Slavers of Suum’tero!

Falling Scales!

Kor’lec awakens from a third dream of his dragon adversary and confirms the monster’s connection to the serpentfolk. With the communion proving two-way, has the druid shown his throat to a creature whose jaws span planets and centuries? Meanwhile, Samaritha relays a tale of her ancestors—does this obscure mythos raise the stakes of the Castaway’s larger concerns to the very stars?

Lots of updates all around the site! Stay tuned!

On the back of the mighty mastodon Matumba, our intrepid crusaders set out to break the wicked M’bulazi clan’s grip upon the otherwise welcoming village of Suum’tero. But will a series of setbacks on route to the slaver’s stockade sully the Castaways’ spirits?

Red Right Hands!

Exposed as intruders by and surrounded by scores of archers on and behind stone walls, the Castaways only have a pair of lions and one very pissed-off demon-spawn between themselves and relative safety. When a stomach-turning discovery strengthens their resolve, how will the hand strike, and who’ll be seeing red?
