The Drylands were a place that put the old stories aside. While superstitious miners have long said that the desert's crystals are made from the very life essence of Forgotten Gods, the folk around here had real work to do, and actual deities were left for campfire stories. That is, until a terrible earthquake heralded the birth of a massive colossus, spun into being from the wreckage of a steam locomotive that had been carrying a shipment of magical essentia crystals. Having answered the call of something ancient and apocalyptic, the titanic steel rhinoceros dubbed 'The Cleaver' has devastated the area and stalks the land with brilliantly shining crystals glowing upon its back day and night. 

The bold prospectors, tired laborers, and born-again worshippers in the dusty town of Wyllin’s Gulch were thrown from their routine of industry and exploitation by the quake and subsequent titanic monster rampage, forced to raise scattered armies and watch them die to the behemoth’s strength. And, as legend has it, this is only the first of many titanic beasts poised to terrorize the land. 

In this adventure, you’ll play a heroic posse of mavericks on an unusual and dangerous heist to save the land...or at least buy some time until the next calamity, while also (hopefully) turning a tidy profit. 

Track down the train titan, pilfer all the crystals you can get your hands on, and live to tell the tale."
