Dark fantasy set in a brutal dystopian world.
You are a mind-reading goblin mage whose citizen score has fallen below the threshold of social acceptability. Normally, you would spend the rest of your life in the Corrective Camps of the State of New Order, but you have volunteered yourself for an expedition into the Inverted Spire. The Spire is an unearthly architectural marvel stretching many leagues below ground. It has no known origin, and has been altering the surrounding landscape into an unlivable wasteland. Your Council has been sending groups of prisoners into the structure for decades with the stated intent of investigating and destroying it. This is the sole opportunity for wards of the state to have their crimes forgiven, scores reset, and citizenship fully reinstated. None have ever returned. But you, and the six others who have been 'volunteered' alongside you, are determined to be the first survivors! Read minds. Form alliances. Break them. Find true companionship. Make true enemies. Become the person you always wished you could be, or succumb to your darkest urges. Anything is possible in the uncharted depths of the Spire.
