The World's Prison
Located on the inner island of Jord, a continent in the southwestern hemisphere of Eurra, is a prison that takes all that are offered up to it and promises that they will never return. To be sent to Jord is to be sent to your death, no matter how long it takes. All the great nations of Eurra have deals with the Dwarven Kingdom of Outer Jord to outsource their interior island for this purpose; an island of frigid tundra and ruins from a Dwarven civil war centuries ago.
A group of recently arrived convicts, whether actually guilty of their crime or not, must band together to survive in the hostile land that wants to swallow them up and the thousands of other prisoners that prey on those without a place in this horrid pit at the end of the world. Wild beasts and monsters roam the land while vicious gangs take up residence in old fortresses and cities, forming a civilization harsher than any from which they were cast. Meanwhile, the Dwarves patrol the island with airships and the waters with ironclads to insure none attempt to rise up or find means of getting out.
To have any hope of escape from this place will require teamwork, resilience, and no small amount of luck.
