Village View

Game Pitch

Drenkova, a remote Raktine village nestled within a mist-shrouded vale, is on the brink of collapse. To its north loom the forbidding Awras Mountains. And in all other directions lie murky forests, haunted moors, and demon-infested foothills. Isolated and beset by darkness on all sides, it is only a matter of time before its dire fate is sealed. But there is still a glimmer of hope. Whispers speak of people awakening to divine power across the scattered lands of Arcem. And now in Drenkova there are two of these newly-imbued. But will they prove to be the saviors that the village so desperately needs?
