In a world where science and magic exist in parallel but rarely intertwine, Rowan Hawke dares to bridge the gap. A visionary engineer with an affinity for arcane energies, they craft inventions that are as mesmerizing as they are revolutionary. Machines hum with an otherworldly pulse, gears turn with an almost supernatural grace—Rowan’s work defies logic and rewrites the rules.

Now, their sights are set on The Clockwork Tower. A place where the boundaries of technology and magic blur, where secrets lie dormant within its intricate mechanisms. If Rowan can unravel its mysteries, they may just unlock the key to a new era of innovation—or awaken something far beyond their control.

Do you think magic and technology should be combined? Or are some things better left separate? Let me know your thoughts!

Flick Whitlock works regular shifts at the Beguile Cinema in downtown Beguile. No one can quite remember exactly how long they have been in Beguile but they were a welcome sight in the ticket box at the front of the cinema.

One or two older members of Beguile seem to have a vague recollection of a 1930s Film Noir Festival after which Flick started taking shifts at the cinema ticket box. The owner of the Beguile Cinema, Harvey Edison, claims that Flick is the best worker the cinema has ever had. He tells people that they are reliable and good at their job.

Harvey was the first to laugh out loud when a young movie enthusiast wrote a blog post hinting at Flick having an uncanny resemblance to a 1930s B-grade actress by the name of Meg Hardy. This revelation caused a mild stir in the community. Some people even pointed out that one of the features at the Film Noir Festival, The Dark Streets, a thriller about a detective searching for a woman suspected of killing her husband, only to fall in love with her and help her escape, had featured Meg Hardy as the femme fatale. When intrigued Begulians had sought out the film The Dark Streets no one could find it. Although he was sure he had once had the film Harvey put the inability of anyone to locate the film down to mass hysteria caused by the wonderful film event and refused to talk about it.

In light of the horrifying announcements made in the US today please meet my gender fluid character Mx. Adrien Vellamere who will be part of my new RPG game Aetherforge: The Clockwork Tower.

I believe ALL humans have the right to a happy, healthy life free from prejudice, violence and the greed of others.
