 Flickeringgas lamps puncture a thickLondon fog. A metallic, rhythmic noise begins to drown out the normal sounds of the evening. An army of copper clockworkautomatons comes marching out of the darkness. Overhead, a loomingdirigible barely clears the tallest buildings. Brass nozzles emerge from the airship's gondola, blasting fire down upon the rooftops. This is the world ofsteampunk.

The term "steampunk" originally referred tospeculative fiction -- science fiction, fantasy and fictional historical tales -- set in an alternateEarth's 19th century. In this universe, Victorian inventors made great leaps in technological advancement with materials like iron and brass and usingsteam engines for power.
