The Webrail

Hello there my lovelies!

Webrail is the setting for a new campaign I will be starting in a short few weeks.  It is a mad cross of Mortal Engines, Snow Piercer, and Spell Jammer.  The setting is a series of floating islands floating in an endless void that are linked together by a vast spider's web.  It is upon these webs that the great locomotives travel, trade, and wage war.  

For this installment I have provided the random tables I will be using to generate the campaign map, and the nature of each floating fragment in the void.  Watch the video to see how these tables can be used to create emergent narratives, and story telling hooks for your campaigns.
