Lex Arcana 4 - Custos Junior
LATE PLEDGE - The volumes will be available by April 2025. Postponements to this date are possible to ensure the best possible quality of the manuals.
ROMA - The most requested geographical volume ever, dedicated to the Eternal City. In this volume you will discover everything you wanted to know about the center of the Empire. You will discover the White and golden Rome, the glistening and martial one of the marbles and the Caesars: from the Senate with its palace conspiracies to the solemn splendor of the Temples, and much more. The Black Rome, the Suburra, the dark city populated by bandits, thieves, murderers, and supernatural threats… And finally the Red Rome, that of fun and vice, from the brothels to the gladiators of the Colosseum…
RISE OF ATLANTIS - The first campaign of Lex Arcana, and the first volume of a new series of modules called "Expeditions": special adventures outside the imperial borders, and characterized by a more adventurous and action style. In this first volume the Cohors Arcana will set off on a journey far beyond the Pillars of Hercules, in search of the legendary last Atlantean colony... From the crowded ports of the Mediterranean to the ancestral secrets of ancient nuraghes, from the tombs of the Pharaohs to the deadly alleys of the second city of the Empire - the conturbating Alexandria - and up to the labyrinth par excellence, designed by the legendary Daedalus, the contubernium will not have a moment's respite!
THE FALL - A single great sandbox adventure that establishes the beginning of the official storyline of Lex Arcana and which will shock the world. What is the perverse ancestral entity whose name is whispered at the borders of the Empire and who has crossed paths with the Custodes several times? What is it planning against the Emperor, and why? And above all… who has already been corrupted by its long claws?
But that is not all. Another unspeakable threat weighs on the Empire, at the center of an obscene cult that lurks in the catacombs of Rome and has crawled out of its thousand-year-old tomb. Already the cultists are plotting in the darkness, claiming a blood claim as ancient and powerful as Rome itself. Their shadows creep into unsuspected rooms. And while the Custodes must discover who to trust and who not to trust, the very foundations of the Empire shake. Because Rome is ETERNAL, but EMPIRES CAN FALL.
Unlike all the other volumes published so far, playable independently and at any time (such as the geographical modules), The Fall marks an important change because it seals the introduction of continuity in the world of Lex Arcana, in line with the most modern serial productions. The volume in fact contains fundamental events and changes, which will have a disruptive effect on the history of the Empire and which will be continued in the near future by other volumes "in continuity". Players will be able to decide whether to continue playing Lex Arcana as they know it or accept the challenge and immerse themselves in the changes in the story.
