World File / Tertius-Prime
Tertius-Prime's running on borrowed time.
Twenty years ago, the dungeon beneath the city was "cleared." The heroes moved on. The Aether stopped flowing. Now the city's running on failing infrastructure, fading hope, and repair tickets nobody wants to own.
- Power Source
- Ancient dungeon infrastructure, half-forgotten and badly maintained.
- Primary Failure
- Aether starvation after a cleared dungeon stopped behaving like a power plant.
- Known Risk
- Some things don't stay cleared forever. Some classes aren't meant to fight. They're meant to fix.
