Your crew of daring scoundrels pulls heists and settles scores to rise through the underworld hierarchy. Now what? In this broken world you play broken people. So: You’re in a haunted night-shrouded Victorian-era city trapped inside a wall of lightning powered by demon blood. To power these crackling barriers, hunters in titanic metal ships venture onto the Void Sea to extract electroplasmic blood from demonic leviathans. On the foggy north coast of Akoros, the industrial city of Doskvol (AKA Duskwall) survived by encircling the city with lightning towers that keep the deathlands at bay. The Immortal Emperor united the surviving enclaves, connecting them with electro-railroad ghost lines. When a wizard broke the Gates of Death in a cataclysm eight centuries ago, the Sun died, the world shattered, and legions of vengeful ghosts assaulted the living.
