 E aster n F a ntas y Noir Ste a mp u n k
Almost two centuries ago the lightning-powered ships of Ceramia pierced the skies of Soburin
heralding an age of oppression that still marks the lands with the resources ruthlessly stripped
from the countryside. Ripped away from a long age of peace and broken by soldiers wielding
scientifically advanced weaponry, the warriors of the prefectures were drafted into a distant
conflict across the edge of the world and ancient traditions of violence have reawakened a thirst
for blood in those that survive behind the safety of the Great Divide. Emperor Hitoshi’s rebellion a
decade ago threw down foreign rule but an ancient danger has reappeared to push society to the
brink of collapse: the Mists of Akuma.
The corrupting fog transforms those within it into bloodthirsty adeddo-oni, monsters that
seek only the rending of flesh and the taste of living meat. Nobles have retreated to the cities
dotting the countryside leaving the common folk to face the supernatural haze alone, adding to
the undead horde. Nature itself has been perilously wounded and the technology that might
save the prefectures is shunned and feared by Emperor Hitoshi and his subjects. In the wake of
the primordial fogs he has granted vast powers of authority to special government servants from
each of the prefectures—bengoshi—able to deputize citizens as they see fit to undertake
missions of great import to the safety of Soburin. While some have done as they were ordered,
most instead use their position to aggregate more resources for their clan, sabotage rivals, delve
into magics forbidden or forgotten during the foreign
invasion, or even enter into fell pacts with oni.

Mists of Akuma is a complete 5E campaign setting:

• Two dozen prefectures that rule over the continent
of Soburin each with its own unique culture, goals,
history, and leaders.
• More than 100 NPCs and monsters, three detailed
urban settlements with full page maps, new
character backgrounds, archetypes for each class
(including ninja rogues, samurai paladins, bardic
gun priests, and warlock wu-jen!), 14 new races,
more than two dozen character feats, and
10 pages of equipment.
• Revenge of the Pale Master, a mystery
set in the industrialized city of Kizaki
in the shadow of a deadly, ancient
necromancer.
• More than we can fit here. There's
a free Soburin Primer PDF
and the core book has
a 40+ page preview PDF.

Though the Kengen Occupation

may have come to an end a
decade ago, the aftershock
of the foreigner's oppressive
rule—divisions among soburi
natives, fear of technology,
and the paranoia of
untrustworthy neighbors—
are strong still, coloring
everyday life with a pall of
darkness nearly as unsettling
as the Mists of Akuma.

As they approach the entrance to the ruined shrine the tengu’s eye swirls with gray and she reaches
out to touch the ranger’s shoulder, ominously warning, “you should not have gone in there.”

The tough veteran shakes away her feathered hand and shoots her an odd look before
replying, “I haven’t yet, and I go where I like.” He stops a few feet from the doorway, peers inside,
and then Kurisu Daisuke takes a bold step forward—his last. Mercenaries behind her gasp and
Rinna drops her head low as jets of acid shoot out from all around the brave warrior, eating his flesh
away in seconds.

She turns to regard the sortie, head bowed. “You’ll all have decided after Kurisu’s mistake
that I was right and should have been listened to.” The noblewoman leading the expedition raises
her eyebrows yet doesn’t share any remarks, pointing instead to two soldiers to go up and disable
the lethal trap. They walk forward hesitantly but not before matching Rinna’s bow, their heads
dropping further down out of respect, and in a matter of minutes the deadly mechanisms are
undone. Confidently pacing into the shrine the tengu looks around at the humble building’s
interior, instantly feeling her ancestors surge to the fore as their spirits nearly coalescing on her
periphery. “There is still great power here.”

Once a half dozen of Takenaka Sukei’s soldiers have filed into the entrance hall the noble
follows herself, looking with disdain at the grime and dust she wipes off of the wall with one of the
fingers of her impeccably clean armored gauntlets. “Indeed.” She beckons with one cerulean plated
arm prompting more mercenaries to come inside and they too fan out, taking up positions near the
two doorways leading deeper within. Before pulling down her regal helmet’s ornate gusoku mask
she turns to the tengu once more, asking, “which way did we go next, feathered seer?”

Rinna concentrates on her surroundings, sensing her feelings and searching for the signs of
memory and glimpses of events yet to pass that sometimes guide her. None come and she shakes
her head, “it is unclear. I am certain that your judgment will suffice, Lady Sukei.”

“Well then,” Takenaka says, smiling smugly, “I choose both. Narita Heizo to the eastern hall,
Kuronuma Setsu to the north. Three blades behind.” A trio of warriors join each, all of them with
hands on the hilts of their swords. Rinna watches as they slowly edge forward, the samurai at the
front of each group holding their weapons out in search of more counter-measures.

It is a slow and laborious process—after only a few minutes the tengu’s mind begins to
wander. ‘Have I been here before?,’ she thinks, the faded ukiyo on the walls feeling both old and new.
As she gazes upon them the paintings begin to move, swirling and shifting across the parchment
to tell the story of this place of worship. The shrine has stood here since the Mists of Akuma first
touched the lands of Soburin and she feels as though it will be here when the primordial fog has
had its last. It is a place of the ancestors, to be certain, but the battles she witnesses played out on
the walls are not of victories—samurai and soldiers of the prefectures lose in nearly all of them,
felled by strangely armored warriors as much monster as man.

A scream echoes up from the eastern passage as Rinna realizes to whom this shrine belongs:
the Osoroshī-Ichō erītokirā chapter, slain to the last by the void dragon Boidokōtei. She does not
wait for anyone to follow, but yells out before taking wing, “the spirits of the dead here are beasts
rekindled by hatred! Those who flee now lived another day at least!” As the tengu flaps out of the
entrance a savage roar follows her, drowning out Lady Sukei’s shouted commands.

The noblewoman has little time to beseech Rinna again and she sees the samurai turn to
face a hideous oni, its form draped in rusted armor fitted with dozens of spinning serrated discs
already bloody with the gore of recent victims. She continues her ascent but her gaze doesn’t
waver from the shrine until the clouds obscure it, making her the only living witness to
the flashes of magic and combat marking the death of Lady Takenaka Sukei.

The future of Soburin is darker still than the present day and the Rōsoku-Urasan knows the
world’s apocalyptic destiny first-hand. Hounded as much by the void of memory in her mind
as she is the flashes of experiences that occasionally rise to the surface, the tengu searches for
something to trigger her recollection of why exactly her soul was plucked from her own body to
be flung back through time. A potent mage in her own right still empowered by her ancestral
pact, Rinna is in a constant state of bewilderment and wonder spurred on by even the simplest
people and places around her—and the further she travels across the lands of history the more
confident she becomes that perhaps its fate is not yet fixed.

In the far future life across the world has nearly
come to an end and only a few dwindling
pockets of civilization persist. Rinna was borne
to the last avian enclave, a fortified settlement
nestled high above the deadlands of Soburin
near the peak of Su-Yosai. She can recall little
of her time there—shrine-like halls and her
family's faces, but almost nothing else. The
tengu’s mind became whole again only after
she arrived in the past, and every time she
attempts to recall the circumstances of her
incredible journey her ancestors whisper
warnings until the terrors of what chased her
from the future near her psyche's periphery.
However she managed to escape from
her home era she traveled a great distance in
the endeavor, landing in the unfamiliar crags
of Uso Prefecture near the city of Kaibo. Akitsu
flyers noticed her presence and tracked her
down in a matter of days, believing her claims
of amnesia to be poor falsehoods for a spy
from one of Lady Askuku’s enemies. Stripped
of her inexplicable belongings and kept in the
bowels of a mountain keep for months, she
was ruthlessly tortured and maimed by the
machinery of Uso scientists. Eventually Rinna
concocted a lie her captors were willing to
believe—a lowly seer guided up the mountains
by a divination where she found the strange
devices in the snows—and the queries of her
captors changed. Now they wanted visions to
aid the Uso clan. It took months for the tengu’s
ancestors to adapt but in time they revealed
futures of far greater scope than just dangers
to her gaolers, most importantly of all how
Rinna would escape her torment.
Word of the stranger with impossible
technology spread as far as Yokuba and when
Lady Nomashi learned her to be a seer,
Soburin’s diviners sought to free Rinna from
imprisonment by the Uso clan. During her
chaotic escape she recalled a battle between a
fleet of Lord Miyaki and the ships of the pirate
Pembu the Ebon-Heart, cajoling and coaxing
her kidnapping-rescuers so that she could lose
any pursuers in the midst of the historically
sudden chaos at the start of the seaborne
conflict. Just as her ancestors helped her recall
before the cannons fire a massive bakekujira
rises up from the water! The whale's song turns
sailors mad by the hundreds and havoc erupts
around her, giving Rinna the opportunity to
abscond to a vessel of pirates breaking away
from their doomed leader’s folly.
The tengu meant only to stay onboard
until the buccaneers next made port but a
foul wind took up the ship’s sails and they
were swept into a supernatural eddy that took
them into a maelstrom of the Mists of Akuma!
Rinna took the helm and navigated the vessel
safely through the seemingly endless cyclones,
skirting the Edge of the World until finally
she collapsed at the sight of calm seas. Upon
awakening from a well-earned rest she realized
something of great import: she is and was the
Rōsoku-Urasan, a fable from her own time!
With this revelation heavy chains were
lifted from her shoulders and Rinna adopted a
whole new approach to life, realizing that she
is not a slave to fate, she has been destined to
play a vital role in Soburin—hopefully to save
it. A dream with her ancestors has emboldened
this belief, a warning that an oni has fell plans
that if left unchecked will turn the soon to be
announced weddings in Sanbaoshi into focuses
for the future’s doom. Throughout her journey
to the imperial capital she has beseeched her
forebearers for guidance, and in return
they've shown her others marked by
fate each time she falls asleep).
5
Keen to avoid crossing paths with either the Uso or Yokuba, the Rōsoku-Urasan is aloof about
her past and attempts to deflect questions about her origins with queries of her own. The Common
Tongue is known to her and she is no savage, yet Rinna has only a brash understanding of cultural
practices (and if any remain in the future, those are denied her as well). Even with her amnesia
and the desperation of the era she’s been thrust into, the tengu has an unyielding optimism for
life and lives each day as if it were her last. Though intent on keeping her identity a secret (lest
she be assaulted anew) she sometimes gives herself away for it’s known that the Rōsoku-Urasan
sometimes speaks in the past tense. Rinna is also on the constant lookout for signs from her
ancestors, so much so that sometimes she ends up missing what’s directly in front of her. As a
foreigner from the future and newcomer to Sanbaoshi she has no friends to speak of, but a few of
her distant ancestors are traders that frequent the metropolis and she looks forward to meeting
them sooner or later, always on the lookout for merchants from Su-Yosai.

Background: Akoraito - Shelter of the Faithful. You and your adventuring companions can
expect to receive free healing and care at a temple, shrine, or other established presence devoted
to ancestor worship, though you must provide any material components needed for spells. Those
who share your religion will support you (but only you) at a modest lifestyle.
Sense of Impending Doom. When danger nears you are assaulted by visions of possible
immediate futures that are a great boon before they overload your senses, leaving you vulnerable
until your mind rights itself. You cannot be surprised and after initiative is rolled, creatures have
disadvantage on attack rolls against you, and you have advantage on ability checks and saving
throws. These benefits last for a duration of rounds equal to your proficiency bonus. At the end
of this duration, you become disoriented for a number of rounds equal to half your proficiency
bonus. While disoriented, creatures have advantage on attack rolls against you, and you have
disadvantage on ability checks and saving throws.

Weapons, prayer wheel, 5 sticks of incense, vestments, a set of

common clothes, and a pouch containing 15 Imperial Pieces (gold)
Future Relics. You can scarcely recall the items you brought with
you from the future but whenever you acquire one, it triggers a
flood of memories and visions that reveals to you both some of
your past (in the future) and bits of your future (now, in the past).
Your amnesia denies any greater understanding of technology
but you instinctively know your future relics when you see them
and even during your recent travels to Sanbaoshi you hear a
rumor of the apparently highly-sought after devices. After you
have spent 1 minute touching a future relic, you have strong
visions that reveal one fact about the distant future of Soburin
(of the GM’s creation and choosing) as well as one piece of
information in the present given to you in a fashion of the GM’s
choosing (such as a commune that automatically succeeds, find
the path that does not require concentration, or legend lore).
You will never randomly stumble upon a future relic—your
ancestors might lead you to clues that take you to one or
the visions they trigger may include how to find another, but
regardless of how you learn about a future relic to
6 encounter you should anticipate undergoing a small
quest to get to it.
