About the adventure
Silver Quarter, the gaudy crown jewel of Spire is ready to fall. The current de facto leader (Mesye So) has resisted the Ministry's attempts to turn them to their service so they've come up with a new plan - they've purchased a run-down casino called the Manticore, establishing it as a base of Ministry operations. Located on the south side of the district, the Manticore was never famed for quality. It has been struggling to make ends meet since it opened, undergoing several changes of ownership and rebrands – to no avail. At present, it is a low-rate gambling hall (with six or so tables of cards operational at any one time) with an emphasis on offering avant-garde entertainment that allows it to punch above its weight. Using this gambling den as a cover, the Ministry has tasked a cell - your cell - to infiltrate and sieze control of the Silver Quarter or, barring that, destabilize it enough to allow someone else to step in. You've been given the keys to the Manticore and a dossier of newspaper clippings on power players withing the Silver Quarter that your magister thinks may be of interest. All of them have something to lose and something they desperately desire. Note: This campaign shall be high in subterfuge and social intrigue so please keep that in mind when joining the campaign. We will be going over rules, character creation, and such in Session 0 (free), so please feel free to join even if you're unfamiliar with the system! This campaign is expected to last 12-14 sessions.
