About Terrain
The Land Of The Dead is a bizarre place, a nightmarish
landscape of strange black land, overcast by an eery
glowing sky. Here, the terrain is dominated by a rocky
wasteland, mountainous in places. The Land Of The Dead
is a huge area, full of strange phenomena and unsettling
sights. Nobody has explored it all, but it is believed
that the land does have edges, known as the Twilight
Barrier.
Denizens of the Land of the Dead can use different
'Shifts' (special powers of the dead) to alter and affect
the very nature of the landscape around them. They can
also gather knowledge in the form of experience, in
combat with creatures of the dead, or by various other
means. This afterlife experience can be used in many
ways in the Land Of The Dead, but probably the most
useful is to purchase further 'Shifts'. This gradual
increase in power and ability reflects the spirits steady
growth in power from a weak new cadaver to a powerful
entity in their own right.
The Land Of The Dead is split into six domains. The
first five are the areas controlled by each of the five
great spirits, known as the Lords Of Death. The final
area weaves in and out of all the others, known as the
'Borderlands' it is ruled by nobody. All players begin
the module somewhere in the Borderlands.
