The Heroes of Cumberland
The Heroes of Cumberland is a Forgotten Runes derivative collection of characters from the town of Cumberland, which is located just south of the Brown Wizard Delta on the Runiverse Map. Heroes of Cumberland are a combination of meaty amalgamations that were created in The Factory on August 24th, 2022. Hotdog heroes, animal/human hybrids, and Plant folk, all with unique stories and dreams just like the wizards and warriors that came before them. In addition to the character collection (created by feckless), stories are being created around the town of Cumberland in the form of videogames, the first of which is titled Shucks: Pumpkin Panic! and follows the journey of Shucks, a heroic corn kid, as he battles his way through the haunted pumpkin patch and ultimately defeats the Ghost Squash of legend.
