THE
LOST
Ever
since Mousillon declined into the mire, there has been little
to hold its inhabitants to the land. Yet the city is still occupied
by the dregs of those unable or unwilling to leave. They eke out
a living in the docks and in the little urban villages that subsist
in the mud and the shadow of the castle. Faced with bandits and
night-walking predators, the survivors of the City of Lost Souls
were forced to hide and make themselves unworthy of any attention.
In recent years, however, as the ordeals of the city become harder
and more punishing, certain individuals have dreamed of restoring
the city to its former glory. Scorning the tactics of the nobility,
who they see as ineffective and distanced from reality, these
Barons, as they are known in a mockery of their former rulers,
have begun to call the survivors to them.
Where
before the survivors avoided the company of others, fearing the
attention of the warbands that roamed the city like packs of wolves,
the Barons have realised that their only strength is their numbers
and their knowledge of the city. They gang together, roaming the
streets looking for food and new recruits, sending the stealthiest
ahead to lay traps and establish outposts. With them they bring
hefty brutes who, hardened by the dog-eat-dog creed of Mousillon,
can no longer survive in normal society. One day, maybe, Mousillon
will no longer be a city of the Lost, but instead a beacon of
the common people. Until then, however, the fight against the
oppressive nobles will pale against the fight against the city
itself.
SPECIAL
RULES
Leaders: The Lost don't follow established leaders. Instead,
the Hero with the highest Leadership at the beginning of the game
assumes the role, gaining the Leader skill for the duration of

Traps: The Lost use traps to harm their enemies and catch
food. Note down on a piece of paper which buildings contain traps
- you may rig one building per Hero or Henchman group with this
skill. The first model to enter a rigged building must pass an
Initiative test or suffer a single S3 hit.

BARONS ...................55 gc
Veterans of the
fallen city of Mousillon are known to the Lost as Barons, a bitter
mockery of the feudal lords of Brettonia who abandoned them to
despair. The Barons are those who decide where the Lost will wander
in search of food, and they divide the spoils fairly. Barons elect
their leader on the basis of strength and experience, and it is
expected that all members of the warband will follow their lead.

These grey-haired

seen better days, and can no longer be assured of their strength,
their words of wisdom are well regarded by the Barons.

There are a number
of individuals in every warband who find their niche with the

Greycoats, after the drab clothes they wear to blend into the
city.

MUMMERS...............35
gc each
Mummer is the
general term for those individuals who have lived so long
in the ruins of Mousillon that they simply cannot fit into

have taken the unwritten law of the city to heart- kill or
be killed.
