"There is no punishment
for failure in Vodacce. Those who deserve to be punished
are already dead."
- Giovanni Villanova
Vodacce is a lady who hides her steel
claws within a velvet glove. Her daughters, mistresses
pf destiny and weavers of the future, direct their subtle
manipulations beneath the notice of the seven merchant
Princes and hide their power behind veils and webs.
Within her borders lies the ancient city of Numa, a
rotting husk within the trappings of the Vaticine Church,
surrounded by lost relics of a former age.
Gently rising from arched spires
and impossible towers, the islands of the Princes maintain
complete power over its mainland, controlling their
noble families with an iron grasp. Courtesans, beautiful
and glittering, dance for the nobility behind jewelled
masks while dark shadows conceal Fate Witches and their
skeins. While the men war for control of Vodacce’s
wealth and power, the women fight a battle of a different
sort - against the very destiny they seek to control.
The most dangerous country in Theah hides behind a pleasing
smile.
The Vodacce sourcebook includes:
A complete history of the country,
from the early days within the Empire of Numa to the
present, and complete descriptions of the seven Princes
and their noble families.
Detailed descriptions of the land,
its people and their culture - including the life of
a courtesan, the Vodacce ideal of honour, and backgrounds
for those who choose to serve the Seven Princes.
New rules for Vodacce Heroes: family
backgrounds, fighting schools, Sorte abilities, new
skills and advantages, and a unique courtesan’s
fighting style.
A special section on women in Vodacce,
from the Fate Witches and courtesans to the Senzavista,
women born into the nobility without the gifts of Sorte.
