The Sealed City: Maidens of Dusk and Dawn

Shadows dwelling beneath the ocean's islands,
where a dark city lies in numbing silence.
Built of pitch-black stone and waiting -
waiting for the Times of Rising.

Creating a confusing state of light,
mortals will hold the city tight,
fighting for wisdom, greed or greater cause.
Now the future lies in their hands and paws.

Will they end the dawn, gaining a constant period of peace?
Or will they find the dusk and bring a sickening disease?

No matter how the intruders choose,
they let madness and mayhem loose.

We are the Maidens of Dawn,
Protectors of the city's seals
and deny any claim to the wisdom
which's hidden for mere 8000 years.

We are the Maidens of Dusk,
Protectors of the city's purity
and will unleash what's hidden way too long
to purge all intruders' lives and sanity.

Welcome...

...to the Sealed City, a new fan-made setting for Games Workshop's abandoned tabletop game Mordheim.

Far in the Great Ocean's north an island has risen from the sea with a city, built of pitch black stone, sitting enthroned on its cliffed surface.

As words spread, an expedition of nobles and scholars, merchants and fortune hunters, fueled by greed and a craving for power sailed from Tilea northwest to snaffle all that is worth taking.

But where the rumour-mongers openly speak of wealth and discoveries, none dare to speak of the deep, crawling shadows and what may lurk in them.

Treasures may justify many risks. As do secrets. But some secrets shouldn't ever be unveiled for the spreading madness and primeval horror they might contain...
