Drake's Dozen
 

Revolution is coming


Industrial, magical, political; the dual-moon planet of Neyush is on the precipice of change.

People of many different species, reeling from the effects of the Great War almost two centuries ago, are accelerating into a new age, fueled by innovative discoveries and forgotten secrets. The event that ended the war and decimated an entire people is referred to as The Blink.

No-one knows how or why it happened, though many have theories.

Little fish, big pond


The Blink also brought change to the Dozen.

Empty metaphysical Spheres of existence, or the homes of unknowable, ancient gods? Opportunities for life-enhancing magitech, or eldritch traps waiting to ensnare the curious? Aspects of reality as normal as time and gravity, or complex creations of the Drake herself?

Whatever the Dozen truly are, something is different now. Something changed with the Blink. Something is coming to Neyush.

Are the secrets behind the Dozen the key to saving it, or the catalyst for its doom?

Jolakefu

Background

Jolakefu is the city on Monyus.

Dominated by waterwheels, aqueducts, smoke-spewing columns and the combined smell of saltwater and electrical burns, it's any monoduga tinkerer's dream.

Famous technology

Demographics

Overwhelmingly monoduga.

Some cecaelia call the coasts home, but meeting any other people here is extremely rare.

The city operates with the monoduga hivemind in mind. Severed are technically allowed, but there are few to no accommodations made for them.

Geography

Two main geographic factors account for the expansion and continued success of the city.

It sits on the northern coast in a well protected bay. As sea travel has become more prevalent, this bay's access to the entire rest of the world has seen a seafaring subculture start to develop to rival almost Yenagun's rich history.

Monyus is, from the northern arid plains and deserts to the southern tundras, a dry continent. Jolekefu, however, sits in a tropical microclimate. It has a distinct wet and dry season, and the wet season in particular is when the city comes to life.

Dry Season

During the dry season, Jolekefu seems sedated. Trade in the harbour is highger with the calmer seas, but the city itself is quiet. Jolakefu keeps ticking over, with people mostly staying indoors to research, or travelling across the continent to visit frends and family.

Wet Season

When the rain starts, it doesn't stop for half a year. The waterwheels dominating the skyline start turning, aqueducts almost overflow, and the countless water-powered prototypes and experiments come alive.
