NOVI ORBUS
Welcome to Bridgewater, visitor, our little corner of Aertari and home to the eminent 'Institute for the Advancement of Humanity' - to say nothing of the Rebellion that's arisen to challenge it!
Here, you will find yourself amongst the most scientifically advanced society in the world, with the lion's share of the new generation of extraordinary minds! They're called 'Initiates' to those in the business, and they are in possession of the ideas that will see Aertari into the future. What is the business, you ask? Well, the Institute isn't about to leave advancement to haphazard chance and its head, Lord Barnabus Cromwell, Maqruess of Haversham, has developed a research and retrieval department within his ranks that aims to find these Initiates and give them a home to develop dreams into realities. He calls it 'Novi Orbus'.
Of course, what is one man's direction and vision is another man's control and Thomas Garland, a former initiate, has sworn to undermine what he is calling 'The Monopoly of Knowledge'. No power should being possession of the truly great ideas and Garland's rebellion is willing to do anything to stop it and they're not the only ones on the prowl. Science is a lucrative business and financiers and opportunists alike are ready to take advantage of Lord Haversham's dream.
Not the least of these are the collection of sky pirates that have responded with swift violence to the launch of Haversham's 'Seeker Fleet', the fleet of airships deployed in the service of Novi Orbus. For purely scientific purposes. Certainly.
You will find adventure, intrigue and, above all, a variety of faces certain to capture your interests, be they steampunk investigative journalists or the ranks of airborne pirates that fight for Bridgewater's airspace.
We look forward to seeing where your allegiances lie. Choose wisely.
