Setting Details
Ashes of Gods is a setting concept for DRYH in which the Mad City is beginning to juxtapose with the City Slumbering. Whether this is an organic supernatural phenomena or actively guided by one or more Nightmare is unknown. But the condition makes it easier and easier for Nightmares to cross from the one to the other, and the unsuspecting of the City Slumbering in that much more danger, from the Nightmares and from randomly crossing over on their own in an exhausted state to become denizens . . . or worse.
This page lists an assortment of Nightmares by type and other notes of interest that goes beyond the material presented in the book. Nightmares from the book have not been included for reasons of intellectual property [though they may still feature in the game] and not all of my own Nightmares will see play or be relevant to a given game, and not all Nightmares that I might use are included here or in the book. But this is the primary stable I draw from, so I include it for transparency reasons. Just be aware that I do create Nightmares on the fly as appropriate.
Final Caveat: Listed Pain Ratings, both on this page and in the book are starting points only. Situation can and often will come into play reducing or advancing suggested ratings. Setting Details
