Chronicles of Equalia: Frozen Home
Premise: As the world around them begins to freeze over, a struggle for survival begins. Man rebels against Fae, and struggles to stay warm behind a stone wall, feeding what ever they can into a mighty furnace at the city center. With the conflict brought on by blaming the Fae, and bleak appearance of the situation, some speak of leaving their city behind, but the administration will have no ear to such talk.
---
In the icy winds of winter's grip, in the fields of Willows bent, behind a thick wall of iron, and brick; rests the town of Allowue. Her heart, an Iron Stove, that heats many homes. Nature gives to the beat of the axe, to fuel the fiery with thatch. Deep with in, with it's heart ablaze, burns an even deeper rage. The Fae have raught an unjust harm, upon those they alarm. The Empire faces a threat from with in, that burns in the hearts of men.
Long conquered by winds, and tides; orchestrated by Fae design. Man, in a moment crushed, pressed to hard, their strength a must. Take up their tools, and arms; to oust their masters who have given such harm. - Poem of the First Settlers
Setting
The walled town of Allowue, with in the border of the Empire of the Fae. It's a rebel settlement that due to the Fae's supposed unwillingness to withdraw the cold, has taken arms against the Empire. However, the Ice has made it so that attacks upon them have been few, and the sending of troops into the waste, impractical. Already the willows, which provide wood for the great furnace that heats the city, have grown scarce.
The Players
Players are humans residing in the town of Allowue. Humans are the least empowered of the races, they can't cast spells, or manipulate the weather; but that's actually their benefit. They have learned to work an honest living as craftsman, and farmers; finding their own ways to connect with nature, and strive for knowledge. Humans have developed great technologies, the most recent, being the steam engine which prior to the Great Freezing, had given rise to horseless carriages, and weaving machines. Now, with fuel scarce, all is being poured into the great furnace which is the one thing that seems to prevent the population from freezing over. With things becoming harsh, many desire now to leave the city, while others, continue to insist that the best thing to do, is remain.
