Fantasy Shop Owner RPG
Four months ago, the Black Comet appeared in the sky and with it, monsters across the world became immensely aggressive, launching coordinated strikes against villages and towns throughout the known world. A great many died in the onslaught, and, from what those who escaped the carnage can tell, the various kingdoms of the world have closed their gates for protection... however, it is only a matter of time till most run out of food.
Your various masters were out of town the day that the Comet arrived, and it is safe to assume that they are no longer amongst the living. So, apprentices, it falls to you to take care of their shops and supply our people with the tools we need to survive.
Luckily our kingdom has wonderful natural defenses, and the monsters have put us under only mild duress thus far, but the loss of our best craftsmen weighs heavily on our rapidly aging worked resources.
