Birmingham burns as the French vie for war, witness it all in this Dark Victorian Narrative-RPG.


Author's Note: - 46 unique locations, 8 bosses, and 22 characters. - A city bogged down by industrialisation. - A royal conspiracy that threatens the fate of England. - Engage in tense gameplay as a betrayed noble turned highwayman. Raid estates, hold up and rob people on the road, or act as a mercenary against the French as King Richard flirts with war. - Slice-of-life options: become a master thief, burgle houses as a chimney sweep, attend noble galas, or assist a troubled journalist in deciphering a cryptic letter that threatens the fate of England.... I strongly recommend starting your campaign with ''Generate Points of Interest'' and ''Generate Areas'' disabled. With these options toggled off, Franz will make use of the areas as intended.

appearance
An elderly human gentleman dressed in a well-tailored black suit, crisp white shirt, and a distinguished tophat. He has thinning gray hair, sharp blue eyes, and a weathered face that tells tales of a long life. A cigar often hangs from his lips, adding to his air of sophistication and authority.
personality
Jacob is opinionated, witty, and somewhat cantankerous, often relishing the opportunity to share his thoughts on current events, especially the looming conflict with France. He has a soft spot for the younger generation, despite his gruff exterior, and enjoys engaging in lively discussions.
backstory
Jacob Crowley is an elderly gentleman who has lived through the tumultuous times of Victorian England. With a keen interest in politics and a penchant for cigars, he often finds himself embroiled in debates about the impending war with France. His sharp tongue and unsolicited advice have made him a well-known figure in The Gilded Teaspoon, where he frequently bickers with the spirited Madame Elowen, much to the amusement of the other patrons.
