Imagine a place where the cruel, the wicked, and the merciless go when they die.

No, not some desolate landscape filled with lava and the wails of tortured sinners. Think of a city. A sprawling metropolis where monsters and men alike are drawn from every corner of the multiverse. Unlike the afterlife of peace and plenty offered to their law-abiding counterparts, the poor souls that are drawn to this mecca of malevolence spend their eternity doing contract work for a Demon Prince in the name of spreading chaos and sowing discord throughout the infinite planes.

This is the City of Lies. Some call it The Hub of Evil.

Dalthan Sol'Magor, a young talented thief who lost his life in a freak accident, should fit right in. Except he doesn't. You see, Dalthan is convinced that he doesn't belong here. Stealing gold from nobles and conning grandmothers out of their pensions isn't evil. At least not in his mind. A bit of theft, a dash of extortion, even a spot of murder are just examples of moral flexibility.

So, what's a recently dead man to do? Reform his 'evil' ways and prove the great cosmic powers wrong. After all, the only real difference between good and evil is a slight tip of the scales.

[ Tipping the Scales is full of evil people doing evil things. There are no heroes here and precious few redeeming qualities. If that doesn't sound like your jam, I encourage you to turn away now. However, if you're in the market for bad people behaving badly with a comedic spin, you've come to the right place.]
