Every pawn needs a board on which to be sacrificed. The frontier continent of Eastern Kathernus is where the pieces of our game find themselves.

A recent victim to mass migration, Kathernus and its native population has served well as a blank canvas for peoples across the world to ‘discover’ and tame. To many, the continent fulfils its use as an investment in industry – a semi-tapped fortune with treasures yet to be exploited, appraised and priced, to others it is simply home to be claimed or lost as easily as the ink of a signature stains parchment.

The capital of Market Haven suits those looking for either. That is where we happen upon our pieces; injured and unaware to the grander game at play as the first move is made.
