Space: 1889 - City at the Center of the Earth
Publisher: Clockwork Publishing

Everything Jules Verne could have written.

Everything H. G. Wells should have written.

Everything Arthur Conan Doyle thought of,

but never published - because it was too fantastic.


Since inventors Edison and Armstrong set out on their first journey to Mars in 1870, mankind has been enthused by the worlds lying beyond the Ether, and nations and enterprises, inventors and explorers have ventured into the depths of space. German inventor Elke Eggers, however, has no interest in going up. Driven by her memories of the fantastic tales her grandfather Ansgar used to tell her about underground civilizations, she has dedicated her life to seeking ways to voyage underground and find the mysterious City at the Center of the Earth.


This adventure is set on Earth and and mdash;in particular and mdash;inside it. On an adventurous journey and agrave; la Jules Verne and rsquo;s Journey to the Center of the Earth and in particular Edgar Rice Burrough and rsquo;s Pellucidar novels, the characters join Elke Eggers in her giant Mole Drill, digging its way towards the Earth and rsquo;s core. But sabotage and unknown threats make the voyage challenging and dangerous. Will they reach the mysterious city Elke Egger is convinced exists down there? And if so, which mysteries and secrets await the adventurers there? What creatures live in the gigantic caverns deep down in the center of the Earth? And, where do the inhabitants and mdash;and possibly even builders and mdash;of this and lsquo;World beneath the World and rsquo; come from?


The adventurers can be of any nationality, even if the starting point of the journey is set in the German Empire. The events in this adventure challenge various character archetypes with tasks matching their expertise: Academics, Scientists, and Explorers are best suited for this endeavor, of course, but Engineers, Mechanics, or Soldiers will be useful as well.

This adventure is written for the Ubiquity Version of the Space:1889 RPG.
