The Chaos of Thais
Thais, the old capital, fell. A bored god turned it into an eternal coliseum no one leaves. There are no quests here and no endings: only war, respawn and the arena resetting over and over. Welcome to the Chaos of Thais.
The GM
A capricious god-admin, sick of peace and predictable quests. He turned Thais into "real entertainment" and hands out his favor like a borrowed crown, setting everyone against each other to stave off his boredom.
The Caged King
The deposed king of Thais. The GM tore off his crown and locked him in a magic cage as a carnival attraction, forcing him to watch the cycle forever. His empty throne is what everyone craves.
The eternal loop
The curse is the endless cycle. The arena, the deaths and the war reset again and again. Dying does not eliminate you: you come back in seconds and the round goes on. Forever.
The 8 Houses at war
The old NPCs of Thais went mad in the loop and rose as warlords. Eight Houses, eight dynasties of blood and betrayal, fight for the GM's favor and for the empty throne of the Fallen King.
House Baxtor, the Broken Watch
“What we guard, we own.”
Seat: the ruined barracks.
House Fordo, the Thirsting
“Drink deep. Die laughing.”
Seat: the tavern of Thais.
House Samyra, the Forge
“Better steel than the dead.”
Seat: the northern forge.
House Xadet, the Coven
“Flesh is just another spell.”
Seat: the magic shop.
House Quenton, the Faithful
“None of mine may die.”
Seat: the temple of Thais.
House Aludra, the Shadow
“A kiss, then the knife.”
Seat: alleys and rooftops.
House Gorvn, the Hoard
“All of it is mine.”
Seat: the general store.
House Osvald, the Plague
“Every name rots in my mouth.”
Seat: the sewers.
