DESCRIPTION:
Steam powered machinery and electricity make up the bulk of modern technology. In the shadows of the Confederacy, there is magic. It's 2020. American slavery was abolished in the late 20th century instead of the late 19th century. Witness the strange and mysterious beyond the familiarity of our ordinary world as well- godly avatars, lustful demons, necromancers, and the undead.. Great Britain, known as Victoria, and China, have maintained their empires. The South won the Civil War and achieved manifest destiny in the United States. In an alternative timeline, see a dark world not too far removed from our own- religio-political cults, racism, sexism, homophobia, corporate takeovers and corruption are abound. Esoteric sciences arcane and archaic survive from forgotten times, and strange demonic creatures wander through the slums of Charleston Enter Carolina Daemonic
