Invention is the hand that turns the wheel of production.
Industria is a sprawling metropolis. Chimneys litter the skies creating hazards for the airships that traverse the heavy smoke filled air. Animals, from all walks of life, scurry along its dirty streets day and night. Work never stops in Industria, triple shifts are worked in every factory, every warehouse, and every distribution center.
Industria is the city of progress, the birthplace of every one of the worlds greatest innovations. It is home to richest of the rich, and poorest of the poor.
Manufacturing is paramount. The city is driven by its ever expanding population, creating a ever expanding need for food stuffs, housing, and wares. The demands grow on a daily basis causing the cities largest manufacturers to scrap with one other to capture and hold the greatest market share. New factories are built monthly. Warehouses are filled and then emptied. The cities distribution centers create queues that snake off for hundreds of feet choking the streets. Struggle as the manufacturers do, they cannot keep up. They look to new technologies, the latest innovations, and breakthroughs to keep up with the 'rat race' that is Industria.
Each week we will create a post for the session. Typically we will make the post after the session, and it will be the goal of the post to summarize or bullet point the most important events. That way between sessions it will be easy to reflect, and discuss what has happened, and what we hope to accomplish in the coming session.
ReplyDeleteThis week is different because it is the first session. I have posted the background information that I want you to know before the session. I will give you more when we begin play. Until the session is over, put your character creation comments on the "Pitch Session" post.
