Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura

Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura - steam and magic live in the same world: on the one hand, orcs and elves walk the streets, on the other, trains, factories and a telegraph are being built, and weapons coexist with spells. Such mixing is considered the norm in this world. The hero can be anyone: a technologist, a fighter, a magician or a thief, and the remarks of the interlocutors depend on this. Leveling up is non-linear, and the characters' antics depend on intelligence and charm. The world is large and open, and there are enough tasks for dozens of hours. Companions judge by actions and can leave if they don’t like the hero’s behavior. Death here is final, except for magical rarities. Tasks can be mundane or gloomy.
