Space 1889: The Strange Land (RPB1)
A tale of mystery, exploitation, and revolution unfolds in Space 1889: The Strange Land, a two-part adventure that spans from the smog-choked streets of London to the dusty canals of Mars. When an extraordinary Martian boy goes missing, heroes are drawn into a chain of events that reveal the dark side of human curiosity and imperial ambition.
Product Info:
On Earth, the player characters attend one of Lord Feltamhithe’s lavish dinner parties, where they meet Kime, a young Canal Martian orphan with a rare gift—he can levitate using his rudimentary lifting gland. When Kime vanishes that same night, the heroes must unravel the mystery, tracing clues through the dangerous world of a traveling circus and the turmoil of the London dockworkers’ strike. Later, on Mars, the adventurers encounter Kime once more—now a revolutionary leader caught in conflict with colonial authorities and local rulers alike.
