The year is 1984. The Satanist past time of Dungeons and Dragons roleplaying has lead to the predictable collapse of civilization. Live action roleplayers, in service of Lucifer, have opened gates into the netherworld, unleashing nightmarish horrors upon the whole world. Mankind's technology and weaponry faltered in the face of our own imaginations. The gold scaled Dragon burnt our fleets to ash, whole battalions of men were turned into revenant thralls by a word and gesture from an undying sorcerer, and the eyes of the Beholder are watching us even now, from a starless space. As our chain-of-command crumbled from the infiltration of the Mind-flayers, so too did our societies.

The world has been carved up. The Dragon rules on the west coast, the lich king on the east, the Mind-flayers seem to have disappeared. Between are roving hordes of goblins and orcs and terrible beasts, maneaters all. Billions are dead. The rest are undead or enslaved. The few who survive have been forced to go into hiding, pilfering the ruins of the very cities and towns they once ruled. You are one them.

Remember this above all: the evil that men do lives after them; the good is oft interred with their bones (meaning dice).
