On the edge of England, within a few hours' travel from the capital, the seas have risen and the Thames delta is filled with a cornucopia of islands, a true archipelago providing hiding place for the disposed and disadvantaged in society - and the old smuggling gangs of previous eras are flourishing again .
This a playtest of a new system which encourages the Player to embrace the failures of their characters and tell a story which can mount to a crescendo of success or failure. Will we start the session with some quick character generation.
