Adventures in Quesoleum, a city of clockworks and alchemy, where the unliving mingle with eaters of the dead. A distant empire's colonial Captain of Industry vies for control of the rebellious city against and in cahoots with two native Queens: a superannuated Queen of the City who ekes out her life with alchemic fluids and bellows; a breathless and apparently youthful Queen of the Nights who eases the life out of her paramours. The insurrectionist poet Dal Sard spits rhymes in the basement of Pretty Birds tavern while the empire's tax collectors party with native barons in the rooms above. Out in the distance, steam-powered monsters trample the dust in an even more ancient and mostly forgotten ruin of a nameless city.
A steampunk slice of life game about the inhabitants of a decadent and recently colonized royal city with a lot going on: big clockwork armors, pirates, alchemists, fusils, and unliving beings. No magic, dragons, elves, or dwarves.
