SLUGs LARP - Pre Game Meeting

For some time Aquilonia was the the mightiest and most prosperous kingdom of all the Hyborian age.  But in recent years it has fallen upon hard times.  King Numedideds has become a ruler in title only, spending most his days walled up in the palace in a drunken stupor.  It has fallen to the aristocracy to rule the kingdom, but each is governed by their own personal agendas.  The once dominate Church of Mitra has fallen from prominence, replaced with a new mysterious cult.  While the Aquilonian Legions are embroiled in unending conflicts with the Pictish savages in the west, rumors spread of a coalition massing their forces to the east.  To the south are the Stygian deserts and nothing good has ever come out of those swirling sands.  Instability and poor leadership have hurt the commoners the most.  Starvation, plague and poverty are commonplace throughout the land.  But the citizens of Taratina have been hit the worst, not only living in squalor, but in also terror from staggering amount of unexplained disappearances.  
 
Come join SLUGS for another night of Lovecraftian Horror, but now set in the equally terrifying Conan Universe.  Monsters of myth roam the city as dark powers conspire for domination and destruction.  Heros will need to arise to combat these evils or the kingdom shall fall into chaotic darkness
