Everything about Crabwell centers on the (immortal?) Entac, who has led the city through thousands of years of...

Brimspur - Everything Bundle
Devils, demons, fallen angels, wraiths, witches, and bogeymen rarely get along. They each occupy their own underworld domains, and when a villainous sort from some other hell intrudes, violence and mayhem are sure to follow.
