Oldenheim

15th of March, 1927

Created by

Oldenheim is a dangerous place to be in the 1920s - the Dock Street Keepers rule the streets and the stations, and there's no way up without friends on the inside. The world is difficult for anyone with a sense of honesty and justice; they're the ones who end up dead first, or worse, as an example to others. Still, life is relatively crime free for the labourer, so long as you pay your "insurance" and keep your nose clean of business that isn't your own.   In Oldenheim, there are whispers of creatures in the night. Whispers that hold weight. Even the gangs leave the catacombs untouched. Even the most sceptical keep a candle in the dark. There is a saying there, that ignorance is not bliss, but the fastest way to an early grave.   This is Oldenheim, one of the oldest cities in Samson, maybe in all of Europe. It remembers the time before the light, when magic ruled fate and monsters controlled us all. The light is spreading, but shadows remain in Oldenheim's corners. It will survive these dark times and move screaming into the light. Will you?
