Vespers: An Ars Magica Saga

Vespers is a Saga set in thirteenth-century Novgorod, in Russia. This is a play-by-email campaign; the main list address is vespers@graphics.cis.upenn.edu and is currently invitation-only.

I have written a CGI script which allows players to roll dice as it becomes necessary throughout the course of the game.

(This campaign is on indefinite hiatus.)
