For five years, [[Magitech and Magic|necrotech]] seared the world's landscape and forces unknown decimated the once-insurmountable Walls of Charn. [[Locations|Nations]] turned against one another with the vanishing of monarchs--brother to brother and kin to kin. During the struggles, the nation of Dragonier attempted to keep the peace before it, too, fell. Other nations threatened to follow. |

Our [[Theme Guide]] aims to get you on your feet quickly by providing an "overall" view of the setting and the type of roleplay available here on Tenebrae. [[Alexandria]] is our core setting where much of the day-to-day RP takes place. [[Races]] talks about our world's inhabitants. You can also learn about their [[Faiths and Pantheons|beliefs]], check out the player-made [[Player-Made Lexicon|lexicon]], and explore the [[Pathfinder Resources|Pathfinder rules system]], which is available for free online. |

There are alot of hurdles to being new: there's adjusting to the theme, meeting everyone, and learning Pathfinder. The first two are the most important: learning the rules can be done anytime, and those guides have already been made. It's the community and "living world" that has no guide to help with those initial steps forward, and that's something we'd like to change. |

[[Nonplayer Characters|Madame Gelfure]], decked in the latest blend of [[Alexandria|Alexandrian]] and Veyshan fashion, hit the famed [[Veyshan|Taashran markets]]. Known for her at times eccentric taste in hats and ties to the "Hats for Orphans" campaign, Gelfure is a well-known figure around Alexandria. It remains to be seen how Veyshan will react, although opinions among local Veyshanti merchants have varied widely thus far. A disgruntled speaker who wishes not to be named suggests that the visitation is part of a covert operations program, to sneak in "scum-ridden, adventurous treasure-hunters" beneath the cover of the Madame's more flamboyant personality. Others counter him by mentioning Taashran's two famous hat-crafters, Aliyah Essa and Qasim Vijaya, and that the Madame is already said to have planned a visitation. |
