Pardiced
It's 1905, New Revolutions breaking out or about to do so all over the world. Sasha Barisnki is dedicated to fighting for Workers' rights, a free Poland and the well being of her fellow Jews all over the world. She is more dedicated to finding her father, who was carted away by the Czar�s Army with the help of Polish turncoat Baron Dubrinski. Papa left Sasha the responsibility to carry on his Work as a Polish Democratic-Socialist Revolutionary, and a map of a gold mine in Colorado from which said revolution could be funded. An easy thing for Sasha to retrieve the gold except for Baron Dubrinski having set in motion a manhunt for her hide, a population of rather uncooperative townsfolk around the mine, and her own �duel� identity as being half woman and half man, both in mind AND body, each of those entities fighting against each other. Making matters more �interesting�---Papa may still be alive, but has turned into someone and something Sasha never knew, or expected. |

YAKUTIA
Recently promoted 25 year old Captain Alexi Koriskov heads out to the Wild Wild East of Siberia in the 1840s, taking with him his under-appreciated scientific inventions and his Vision of a Utopian Democratic Society, in service of his family honor, his betrothed Elena back home in Moscow, and of course the Czar. It doesn't take long for Alexi to realize that his 'promotion' was an exile-in-disguise, engineered and perpetuated by all of those back home who he trusted, and loved. His new companions are White Russians who obey NO laws, Yakut Natives who honor codes he cannot understand, and the ghost of his deceased father. Still, Alexi is determined to build his Utopian society, where no one is king, everyone is wealthy, and science forces Mother Nature to serve everyone. At first he is lucky, then learns very quickly that the anatomy of a multicultural Revolution based in scientific theory is far more complex than he can imagine, and far more dangerous than he ever could have envisioned. |
