What it's about

As with many yarns and tales, Pandemonium is all about “what if.” In this case, what if the demons and monsters of legend and folklore had been sidelined to the underground by a world that no longer suited them? And what if, indeed, they had decided (after subterranean eons) that waiting underground no longer suited them, and it was time for a spot of invasion.

Well, that happened, but nothing went to plan.

For all their magics and horrors, the invasion failed. By the professionalism of many, and the heroism of a few, mankind won the brief battle for the sovereignty of Earth. It wasn’t grand; it didn’t result in millions dead. It didn’t really change the world. It resulted in Tuesday. A new normal.

The year is 2035. Ten years of peace have passed since the weeks of the Breach Crisis. That said, underground in the Roussel Zone, peace is relative, with resentful eldritch horrors sharing lebensraum with mercenaries, miners and hippies.
