In the aggressive race for absolute power and wealth in Toiltown¸ two contestants have prevailed over the rest of the would-be contenders: Joseph Sedge and Rudyard Brome. Sedge controls nearly all the manufacturing in Toiltown¸ including twenty cotton mills in his own private section of the city¸ Sedgetown. Brome owns almost ten new slaughterhouses¸ utilizing new techniques to gain efficiency in his production of meat for Castorhage. Each man is constantly seeking new methods to speed up his operation to pass his adversary in financial prestige and influence. Trusted engineers and workers are in high demand in both organizations¸ often making the difference as each tyrant tries to outdo the other.
One such man is the last surviving fleshgineer working for Sedge. A member of the four-man team that developed the new cotton-splitting machine¸ Grazle Adamsby recently found himself as the lone survivor after the other three contributors died in freak accidents. Grazle's nervousness about the situation has led him to make mistakes¸ and although he has not yet fallen victim to a bizarre accident or strange illness¸ he has been placed on "probation¸" a fate often viewed as worse than death. In probation scenarios¸ Sedge places a dungeon ring upon his target until he gains all the information he needs to either better control the individual or to dispose of them.
