What is Velvet Skies?

Velvet Skies is a role-playing game set during Victorian London in the year 1871.  If you are unfamiliar with a role-playing game you can read up on them here [ Role-Playing Games ]. In this game you play a character, and through that you create stories, plots, and intrigues.  This is a game based around the creation of stories and fiction, set with rules to let you know just what your character can and cannot do. Through interaction with other players and events throughout the game the story of your character is molded and in some cases drastically altered as you play.  Any number of stories can be created, and any number of events to go with them.  You are the player, you create the character, and with the character you shape the course of the game.  The game is fundamentally a Gothic Horror game, though elements of weird science, steampunk, and romance are surely to be found.
