Ask Grombrindal: Why Live in Aqshy?

February 2018·p. 35

THE SHORT VERSION

Grombrindal answers a reader who sees the Realm of Fire as too hostile for ordinary settlement. Native peoples have adapted to its conditions, while magical resources, gems and metals make it valuable for trade; the reply frames Aqshy as a lived-in realm rather than simply a battlefield of constant flame.

House Orlock: The Iron Brotherhood

The House of Iron draws its wealth from mines, factories and transport monopolies, but gang membership offers an escape from its workers’ brutal servitude. The background contrasts the appearance of collective unity with the house’s violent history, explaining the code that places gang and house loyalty above outsiders.

A Time of Tribulations

The Malign Portents preview describes a growing magical crisis whose full purpose remains concealed. Optional Shyish rules, prophecy points and four harbingers allow players to take part, while skull-strewn terrain, a Warscryer Citadel and related fiction offer modelling and narrative ways to reflect the same ominous atmosphere.

The Four Harbingers

Four new characters express contrasting responses to the coming crisis: a celestial engineer, a brutal Darkoath ruler, a treacherous wraith and a fungus-ridden grot visionary. Their tools, armour and mutations make their roles legible before any rules are read, connecting the models to their individual histories and divine allegiances.
