** Testimonial- "Zayne is an amazing DM. He has a focus on supporting diversity in his games and his players. I've always felt supported as a queer gamer, and also felt very safe at his table top. Plus he's a "Rule of Cool" DM, and I've never had a PC as powerful as my Fairy Sorcerer! Can't wait to explore what happens next in the realm of Ursus Aktos!" - Brian

In a realm where magic is the norm and peace, the everyday anthem, what happens when catastrophe strikes? Imagine the serenity of the world being violently disrupted, much like a limb being ripped from an idyllic masterpiece.

Picture this: You stroll through your neighborhood, lost in thought, when suddenly an entire civilization of clockwork beings — frozen in time for eons — bursts into reality. They hail from a world so advanced that their entire cities effortlessly float amidst the clouds, defying gravity as if it were but a mere trifle.

How would your mind grapple with such an apparition?

When cataclysmic change converges with the re-emergence of an ancient civilization, what will be the aftermath? Civil unrest? Chaos? Strife? Perhaps all these and more. Dive into the World of Ursus Arktos, a realm unparalleled in the vast multiverse. As the world faces challenges reminiscent of the Great Cataclysm, will today be marked as a reckoning or a liberation?

But what of the Travelers? From where do they hail? Mysterious doorways from myriad timelines, planes, worlds, and dimensions have begun materializing, beckoning travelers—perhaps heroes like yourself—from distant lands. What arcane power or guardian mandates this summons? Are you a Traveler, a hero plucked from another epoch, realm, or cosmos? Or will you falter in the face of chaos, too daunted to heed the call?

Do not waver, do not succumb to doubt. Now is the hour of action! Rise, unite with kindred spirits, and drive away the encroaching darkness from whence it came!
