Come roleplay in an Amber of steam locomotives and pistol duels at
dawn!

Vie for the favor of an increasingly demented and weak King Oberon,
and plot to gain power (or even the throne) once he inevitably passes
on.  Host gala events, and use the setting to humiliate your enemies
and ennoble your allies.  Fight battles amidst the ropes of dirigibles
as they careen in flames through jagged mountain passes.  Face ghosts
and brothers, the terrors of the drowned lands and the wonders of the
New Worlds, conflicts at home and battles abroad against the Court of
Flame.  And then retell the tale in your gentleman's Club, a snifter
of fine brandy at your side.

"Will of Kings" is an Amber campaign set in a variant setting heavily
influenced by Victorian pulp fiction.  Player Characters will be
children of the doddering Oberon, trying through either underhanded
scheming or gallant adventures to gain the favor of their cantankerous
father and to be written into his ever-changing will as the next ruler
of Amber.

Players are being accepted now (August 13), and the GM will be
available for direct contact until August 17.  There will then be a
break while he goes on vacation, but during which characters may still
be submitted. Final decisions on characters will be announced upon his
return on August 26, with Auction to follow well-nigh immediately.
