About
The city of Newfaire, located in the Northern end of Noma on the continent of Osugbo, a revolution has just begun. Since the cut off from all other planes, the world has fallen into a mundane forgetfulness and in this quiet area of the continent that has always been simple and mostly human, a new danger awaits.
History
In the aftermath of the Great No Man’s War of 27 CR, a delicate balance of faith, law and order holds the Fairelands together beneath the watchful eyes of The Primacy, Noma’s Central Government; its presence felt more in decree than in flesh,The Ascendancy, the religion of this area and the Periphery, a militant police force.
Now, in 37 CR, strange happenings have begun to take hold in Newfaire’s streets, the Scarlet Woods, and the Bridleborn mountains surrounding. A realm, completely cut off from all others and having nearly forgotten what dangers they hold, finds itself on the threshold of another plane, The Flare. The Flare has found itself brushing against Newfaire as the boundaries thin, releasing the aberrant and eldritch horrors that those who now occupy the city have long forgotten.

Notable Publications
The Civil Tribune
The Civil Tribune is the largest paper in the city and widely seen as the unofficial propaganda arm of the Primacy. Its long history gives it easy access to politicians who are more than willing to pay for favorable coverage, and the paper rarely turns them down. Because of its loose relationship with the truth, few outside Noma consider the Civil Tribune a reliable source for news about Nomann affairs.
The Halen Star
The most notable progressive paper with enough money and establishment support to feasibly compete with the Civil Tribune. This paper is known for its wide array of international journalists, and is often at odds with the Periphery. This paper is the most likely to report on any magickal phenomena with any degree of truth. Local investigative reporters include one, Elizabeth Nightshade.
The South Soffit Defender
The South Soffit Defender is a respected progressive paper known for its commitment to straightforward reporting and its focus on the concerns of the working class. Although it lacks the resources of the city’s larger publications, it has a loyal readership in the Soffit and the Sidle, where its coverage of labor issues and everyday life resonates most strongly. The paper is also remembered for the tragic loss of several staff members in 37 CR, including its editor in chief, Ruth Calder, whose death remains an important part of its identity. Despite these hardships, the South Soffit Defender continues to serve as a steady, honest voice for the people it represents.
