Few would willingly choose to live beyond the wall, but there are small, isolated pockets of civilization across the city. The sewers are overrun with ravenous morlocks, and their is always work for those brave or desperate enough to descend into the foetid tunnels to purge the darkness of these mutated wretches. | Few would willingly choose to live beyond the wall, but there are small, isolated pockets of civilization across the city.

The Skin Market buys prisoners from bands of raiders, brands them as slaves and then sells them on for a profit. Men, women and children - even animals - can be haggled over and bought, for a price. <br> |
The guiding hand behind the Skin Market is an obscenely fat man called Rollo Hutt. He dwells within an enormous tent sewn from the flesh of over 100 slaves, killed and skinned for this singular purpose. He is always surrounded by a harem of hollow eyed women upon whom he often exercises his sick, sexual deprivations. | The guiding hand behind the Skin Market is an obscenely fat man called Rollo Hutt.
