Before the times of sorcerer-kings and monsters, before the world tree sprouted from the blood of the old ones and created the heavens, before the cosmic comet, there was a time of Reds and Whites.
The Red stood for the proletarian and the small peasant and their power, the absolute destruction of the old order of things. The White stood for the landowner, the bourgeoisie, honor against the godless Reds (despite the gods not having been born yet, but that's neither here nor there).
They had no country, for they were many, all across the world, but after the world was reborn in the arcane fires of the comet, all that remained of their forces were confined within...
The Red General's Wheeled Dragon
More accurately it's referred to as a train, but for many outside of it that word is lost to time, even where a similar machine exists.
Class warfare rages on inside the wheeled "dragon" in a new bastard form, it's guns the dragon's fiery breath, it's armor iron scales. Some people inside are flesh and blood, some are skeletal husks of their former selves, and some are neither, but nonetheless capital still survives and puts roots down inside the train. Towns spread across train cars, factories hang off the sides of them as well. Soviet power (sometimes of dead men) versus parliaments, petty dictators, and juntas. Nobody knows where the guns and ammo keep coming from, they seem to replenish themselves sometimes, but not always fast. When the bullets run out, many turn to clubs, swords, and bayonets.
And all the while, the mysterious Red General heads the front of the miles long dragon. Forever an inspiration to the Red cause, and many a White will know him as the most godless and wicked of all the Reds. He is a champion of the old world's destruction that is already destroyed, yet barely alive, clinging on for dear life to the proletariat's Draco in Rotis
The Red General
The Red General's Wheeled Dragon will be a series of blog posts with individual or groups of large armored train cars as dungeons. The train teleports all over the place, so you could put it in or have it hang around any locations you might want it to be, but it is always moving
One day I might make a train car generator, but I doubt I'd make that for a long while. I'm not very experienced making rpg content, this will be a new adventure for me.
I hope I will have the energy to actually follow through with this, and said content may not come soon after this post, if I do, I hope people enjoy what I create.
