Parallel Lines is a collection of eight very different scenarios
set in seven very different versions of Earth. Each mission is
self-contained, but the collection can be played as a complete
campaign with the characters forming an elite team in Valhalla's
Mjollnir Section.The adventures include the Salem Witch Trials, a
post-apocalyptic Camargue, an Orwellian Britain, epic journeys by
airship and Trans-Siberian Express, a voyage to the bottom of the
sea, an investigation through the streets of a disintegrating
Edinburgh, and a murder hunt through a dystopian London.Packed with
wild ideas and creative locations, along with dozens of colourful
NPCs (and some distinctly weird ones), Parallel Lines is
transplanar adventuring at its very best.Parallel Lines requires
access to both Luther Arkwright: Roleplaying Across the Parallels
and Mythras for full enjoyment.

Not one Earth, but an infinity of them, existing in parallel
continua, their own paths, own histories, own futures, own
mistakes. Most are unaware of the existence of a multiverse; but
some parallels know that Earth is not alone, but mirrored.ZeroZero
knows. It watches the parallels, ensures their stability. ZeroZero
knows that instability spreads like a disease, infecting each
parallel until a critical mass is reached and cataclysm is
guaranteed.The Disruptors know. And they are intent on subverting
the multiverse for their own ends, to destabilise countries,
instigate wars, bring about destruction.The Valhalla Project was
established to stop the Disruptors; to uncover their plans,
identify their agents, and eliminate them. Their best agent is
Luther Arkwright, unique in the multiverse, a powerful psychic, but
himself unstable. Arkwright does not work alone. There are others.

Imagine a land of dark, sweltering jungles filled with nameless
monstrosities and savage reptilian head-hunters... hacking through
thick undergrowth to uncover forgotten overgrown ruins filled with
glittering treasures... discovering mysterious cities of gold
hidden high up between the sheer mountain peaks, filled with foul
sorceries... uncovering ancient temples still used by secretive
cults to practice their abhorrent sacrifices... and worse still, if
those gods arose as titanic beasts beyond mortal comprehension, to
destroy those that dare despoil their worshippers...Then imagine
you've arrived, shipwrecked or magically transported, to this
tropical hell and that there is no escape.Welcome to the horror of

Republic, and follow it through to its murderous end, on a

overthrow the tyrannical Seven Kings; conquer the rival Etruscan
city states; watch the city be sacked by Gauls; battle Hannibal
during the Punic Wars; take part in the malevolent Bacchanalian
conspiracy; fight alongside Spartacus or against him; or choose
sides during the civil war between Caesar and Pompey.This
invaluable book contains rules for everything from political

of all time, describing in intricate detail every aspect of
everyday Roman life. Indeed, this book is packed with quotations
written during the last days of the Republic, revealing shocking
