A hidden relic of a forgotten era, one of four strange towers camouflaged in the eastern deserts of Calderwick. Guarded by secrecy, only the top members of the Order of the Machinist know its location. Inside, a sentient machine awaits… a creation rumored to have been built by the Machinist himself.

Once a proud city of artisans and miners, Wolvendale now stands as a symbol of survival and change. The warmth of machnite forges cuts through its brutal winters, but not without cost—its legacy of craftsmanship now threatened by disease, scarcity, and imitation.

Elder Thassian became the youngest Clockwork Elder in history.
Charismatic in public, relentless behind closed doors, he sees it as his divine duty to save Calderwick from decay.
To him, indifference is as dangerous as corruption.

The Church claims the machinite veins are “the Creator’s scars.”

Inventors call them “the future.”

Which side would your character trust?

Here’s to many more years of Questborne Studios!

Ambrose Vexley, merchant turned magnate.
He uncovered machnite beyond the Church’s reach and waited three years before showing the world.
When he did, history split in two.

Now silver-haired and sharper than ever, Vexley engineers his own power.

In Brass & Embers, people fear losing Hope more than life itself.

If your world had a single emotion, belief, or trait that kept people alive, what would it be?

Lady Octavia of House Elkford rules Stonebrook, a city of endless bloom and quiet control.

Her gardens thrive, her bees obey, and her people follow.

When the Tech Revolution came, she barred it at her gates, claiming it would ruin her perfect hive.

25 years ago, one discovery changed everything.

When Ambrose Vexley unearthed new veins of machnite, the sacred metal once thought divine, industry spread like wildfire.

Now progress fuels unrest, and the Shattered Cog rises in defiance.

Calderwick runs on machnite and stubborn hope.

What’s the most unreliable resource in your own worlds, aka the thing that always breaks when your players need it most?

In Brass & Embers, progress and faith don’t always coexist peacefully.

In your own settings, which side wins more often, invention or belief?
