Qin - The Warring States
Feudal China at its best!
Take part in a campaign set in the Seven Warring States period. The Zhou dynasty has collapsed and the country is now split between the seven major powers, each now a separate kingdom - all vying for ultimate power and control of the other six, each firmly believing they are the right people to lead the empire. The time period spans 475BC to 221BC, this game takes place close to 240BC.
In the vein of "Journey to the West", the party is led by a young Taoist on a divine quest to find balance for the land and its people, aided by an assortment of characters, this is their story of travel and adventure through the fractured lands that swallow whole villages for nothing less than spite.
A land where mythological Chinese creatures exist, their own agenda causing them to sometimes harm, sometimes aid or just withdraw from contact with man, satisfied in being prayed to or feared - or both. A history where the Kingdom of Heaven imposes its will in a very literal sense. This is a place where legends are born and prophecies fulfilled.
