This Lore category explores key locations, treating them as characters with their own histories and ideologies. Each entry is a “psychogeographic survey,” detailing the interplay of a place’s physical Facts with the dominant Fictions and Faiths of its inhabitants. This creates a rich context for emergent stories, transforming a simple setting into an active narrative force.
Contents
- B1-Ax450 - A desolate mining outpost where a pragmatic Incarnation’s rigid, logical Faith is shattered by a metaphysical Fact it is incapable of processing.
- Homestead - A settlement on a harsh world whose communal Faith is a direct, emergent product of the environmental Facts they must survive together.
- Nova Roma - The capital of a decaying empire, sustained by a powerful Fiction of its own permanence in defiance of the observable Fact of its decline.
- Lament for the First Weave - The primordial, broken reality known as Fallow, a hostile environment where the core game loop is inverted and the goal is escape, not creation.
- The Gods’ Unloving Gaze - A constructed metaphysical phenomenon that strips away Eidos, leaving behind a blank slate, and the dangers and opportunities it presents to those who seek its power.
