Oriental: Serpents in the Palace [ EDIT ]

This game has been retired! That means it's no longer being run.

Conditions: Emperor Kai Tsao Shou Chin decreed the Gathering of the Pearls policy which introduces ministries of science and alchemy. This decision angered the Ministry of Magic and led the Council of Mages to abandon their duties. With the winds of Shou Lung blowing colder, Kai Tsao Shou Chin has begun granting abandoned estates around the capital to allied clans to secure the critical city.

Players are cousins within the Xian clan (Several family connections), the Master of each family decided to keep senior family members to secure their strategic positions. The PCs are young but have proven competent so far. PCs are sent to the new clan estate in Taoyuan along the western limits of the capital.

Missions: Early missions will involve helping/ establishing the clan on the estate, representing the families in the Imperial court, and dealing with various conflicts in the Wang Kuo district (Capital District).

Yes as the adventuring world expands, new files and maps will be added.
