VENDIR: PLAGUE OF LIES

The Royal Family makes their money from child slavery, the economy of whole towns rides on selling severed up chunks of dead bodies and warfare is as common as rain. Poverty, plague and destitution are the status quo- with most citizens rising to little better than the rat infested gutters they were born in. 

When an elderly woman falls sick- she sends a message to her children, who live all the way at the other end of the Kingdom in The Capital City of Galdos, requesting their urgent aid. It will be a long and arduous quest for the siblings, one made all the more difficult by the tyrannous King Elrik. He rules the city with a fierce iron fist, inflicting the most torturous of punishments for even the slightest of crimes and, just as the siblings are about to embark, he unveils his harshest rule yet: nobody can leave the city again.

Dare they commit such a serious offence when the punishment for merely being drunk in public is death? When men are tortured in the streets for stealing the food they need to survive? When people are burnt alive for failing to pay their debts?  With little to no choice, the siblings must make their way from one muddy end of the Kingdom to the other- inciting Elrik’s wrath every step of the way.

The Eighth Era of Vendir is about to be written, but what conclusion will be woven into the tapestry? Will Galdos finally be free of King Elrik’s cruel regime? Or will its citizens be plunged into even darker times? Challenge the truth in a Kingdom drowning in a plague of lies in this party-based old-school RPG.
