Turn 1 Begins...

Less then a year ago the Shadowside prison was breached and the trapped Conduits rushed out to rejoin their husks. The Veil weakened and the Mana Nodes opened, flooding city with Mana. The Sixth Nexus has emerged in the Grace City. Why did it happen? Nobody is even sure, where the name Sixth Nexus came from and what it signifies. Some think the process is still unfinished and the changes in the world only just started. For better or for worse. What is the meaning of magic’s return? Perhaps it will be determined by the Mages of Sixth Nexus. The High Mages, most powerful among the Mages have started to make their moves.

The Vaulters, Ascended, Sentinels and Wardens have isolated themselves in their territories, barely interacting with the rest of the city in pursuit of their agendas.

The Cowled Mage and Circle Mages have been seeking out contacts with others, trying to establish a magical community in a true sense of the word.

The Atlanteans, Goodfellows, Gians and Merryville Preservation Society wish to impose their philosophy on the Grace City, certain of their righteousness.

The Mages like Scholar and Leona Blair study magic, taking a more scientific approach.

The Irene’s Enchanters, Technomage and Shadow Lodge just seek a place of service providers to survive and prosper.

Then there are the opportunists, trying to gain power by any means, like Nexus Runners. And those, who motives are difficult to decipher like the Russian and Grandmother.

In dark places, hidden from view there is a growing number of things that go bump at night - Sewer Dragon, Burned, Wailer, Things Below and many others, unknown and mysterious.

Leaving a trail of corpses, Mages like the Beast use their magic to fulfil their base desires. And rumors whisper of Lady in The Black Veil stalking the streets.

But now the High Mages, most powerful among them have started to make their moves and those may come to shake the very foundations of the city, if not the world.
