Dishonored is set in Dunwall, an industrial whaling city where strange steampunk
inspired technology and otherworldly forces coexist in the shadows. You are the
once-trusted bodyguard of the beloved Empress. Framed for her murder, you become
an infamous assassin, known only by the disturbing mask that has become your
calling card. In a time of uncertainty, when the city is besieged by plague and
ruled by a corrupt government armed with industrial technologies, dark forces
conspire to bestow upon you abilities beyond those of any common man – but at
what cost? The truth behind your betrayal is as murky as the waters surrounding
the city, and the life you once had is gone forever.
