Getting the Band Together
The premise of this game is going to be very similar to the items in Nicholas Eames excellent books Kings of the Wyld and Bloody Rose.
You will form a band of monster hunters and glory seekers, commissioned by the city of Caluth to venture out in to the Wilds and bring back "entertainment" for the masses. Caluth is a border town...on the border of civilization that is. Located far to the North, near the arboreal crown of the world it is the last habitable (for humans and demi-humans) port that far north. It lies in a moon around the Feriz Bay, looking out at the Crown and the Spire, the forest and mountains of the north. The city has grown large, decadent, and rough.
Recently a new Trading Company came in to town, the Black Spire Trading Company, and set up a coliseum in the city. Their purpose, to entertain the masses of people who live in Caluth, and aspire to escape from their every day drudgery. To that end they've put out a call to the Bands, come to Caluth, bring us monsters both fierce and mighty, and we will reward you with riches and fame beyond your wildest dreams.
It sounds good, you're damn right it does. It's just that, well, it's dangerous up here, and the first four bands came back in pieces, not at all, or as undead retribution from something in the Crown. The Black Spire Company is down, they haven't had a full event in the Coliseum yet, and they're rapidly bleeding money and interest. This is it, their last gasp, last chance at their dream...and your first chance at yours.
