Sad vampires try to forget that they're sad by going on a big night out in Victorian London.
Description:
The sun never sets on the British Empire. Truly there has not been a grander empire since the likes of Julius Caesar and Genghis Khan. Under the mourning eyes of Queen Victoria in the wake of the death of her beloved Prince Albert, the city of London is vibrating for release from this prolonged grief.
You, on the other hand, have been experiencing a different kind of grief. The kind one feels when mourning not the loss of someone else but rather, the loss of your own life. Grieving, however, gets old.
Now is the time to party.
The Agency tracks, pursues, and studies Anomalies. Can you preserve reality for the Mundane Beings of Ternion City?
Description:
"It took you 9 hours to get to work, and you even installed that brand new map app. I mean, it's better than Apple maps, but you can't fathom how traffic could be this bad.
Maybe it's because the street signs and lights have been removed. The lines in the roads have been painted over. Maybe it has something to do with that enormous mushroom tower growing from the center of the city...
Good thing you've had your coffee."
The Agency tracks, pursues, and studies Anomalies. Can you preserve reality for the Mundane Beings of Ternion City?
Description:
An office building looms over Ternion City, within are horrors beyond imagination... A photocopy business slowly fading from a reality in which it no longer belongs, CCTV footage stored on clandestine and remote hard drives, a janitor named Elmer Fudd, no relation.
All live in the lingering memory of a gas line explosion decades before. Even the walls remember the screams.
Fortunately, you've had your coffee.
