Pale Signal

Kairo is a modern city that looks ordinary from the outside — but beneath its streets and behind its grief runs a hidden supernatural layer called The Pale. You are a Warden, a newly recruited operative of the Bureau of Civic Integrity, gifted with a singular personal ability known as a Resonance. The city's accumulated Pale activity is building toward something catastrophic, and the institutions meant to protect people are hiding secrets of their own. The world is hard. The connections you make here are the only things that matter.
