| + | Tentative background: In defiance of the authority of the Emperor, Vlad the Cruel, the Boyar of Omskovia has settled his soldiers along the great river Wod, seizing land that was once the Emperor’s. Fearing both the revenge of the Emperor’s successors and of the Great Khan’s horde, the Boyar has enticed the wyrm Nogrog to dwell on Night Peak at the centre of his lands. From this perch, the mighty and territorial creature will fly out to vomit all-consuming flame onto any advancing army. But the price for Nogrog’s protection is high. Not only is a levy of gold placed on the land to feed his greed but human slaves must also be seized. A lottery is held to ensure that, if too few criminals are available, the dragon will have human prey. |

| + | Small numbers of folk flee the dubious safety of the Vovoid to seek freedom further north and east along the great river, settling forest and steppe along its banks. Here though they must contend with new dangers. Villages of tartars and steppe folk, wolves, bears and the haunted ruins of towns ruined by horde invasions of old. The goal of the adventure will be to secure their safety and perhaps even to slay the dragon itself. |

| | SAVAGE WORLDS will be used to give a pulpy feel, but will stay in the Novice band to keep things challenging. The adventure would be short (300-400 posts) as the action will move pretty quickly. I tend to get on well with regular (daily-ish) posters but annoy slower players who lose orientation with the (relatively) face pace of posting. Better obviously, to make that clearer now. | | SAVAGE WORLDS will be used to give a pulpy feel, but will stay in the Novice band to keep things challenging.

| − | '''Background'''
| |
| − | Born to privilege, Erzebet was raised to rule, to lead by example. Her father might have preferred a male child, but rather than see their line taken over by a cadet branch - or disappeared into the bloodline of another family - he raised Erzebet to fight, to be strong.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | And so she is - but strength could not defeat the taxes, or the musters that the Emperor called. With most of their money gone, and all their fighting men, Erzebet is left alone to find her way in the world. Perhaps she'll find luck enough to regain her home.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | There is, however, something standing in her way. Or at least, trying to.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The strongest of the cadet lines was, like her own, bereft of sons. The daughter, though no match for Erzebet in any kind of battle, played politics better. She now resides where Erzebet once dwelt. Morena knows that Erzebet will seek to come back, but her position is not strong enough for large operations. Yet.

| − | == Mikhail Volkov, Lucky Bastard ==
| |
| − | A fatherless soldier of fortune and gentleman of the road who claims his mother was a famous witch of the nomadic Koltja - turning into a reindeer, summoning winds and tying them into knots and all that sort of stuff. He doesn't look at all like his alleged people, which he says is because his father was... well, it varies, but usually a passing noble or knight of some grand foreign realm or other. Mikhail doesn't seem to have taken after either of his parents, although, whether due to his sorcerous heritage or arrangements he's made on his own, he does seem to have the Devil's own luck and no one who knows him will bet against him on the flip of a coin.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Mikhail is a pale, sinewy man with a toothy grin and wolfish eyes of brown bordering on amber (not for nothing is he named "Wolfsson" - and not ''only'' because he can be a real son of a bitch, either). He dresses in a mixture of well-worn plain garb and outrageous foreign finery, in the manner of mercenaries everywhere, and keeps his thick black hair long and braided, in the manner of no civilized people in these parts.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Lately some vile, baseless accusations concerning an unfortunate tour in Imperial service have made it hard for him to find honest employment and, despite his protestations that it's not desertion when your whole unit has been cut down around you so there's nothing left to desert, the Emperor's forces still offer a small bounty for his capture - alive, to be tried and hanged - that has gradually gone up after the several times he's narrowly eluded their grasp...

| + | Hunkering down behind a medium or large shield counts as an action and increases its cover by one step (from light to medium or from medium to heavy). A shield can be sacrificed instead of spending a benny to soak damage; the shield is effectively destroyed and useless until repaired or replaced (both cost the same). |
| − | ===Ranged Weapons===
| |
| − | Victims Shaken by firearms roll to recover at -1.
| |
| | | | |
| − | Any firearm can be loaded with small shot instead of a ball: this gives +2 to hit, decreases the damage die type one step and deals 3 dice of damage at short range, 2 dice at medium and 1 die at long range.
