Posted by Amy Atkins on Fri, Oct 30, 2009 at 9:51 AM

According to EZTV, a new steam-punk, sci-fi/fantasy, live-action Web series called Riese starts on Monday, Nov. 2

Riese is, according to the synopsis, a "world of moral ambiguity and political intrigue. A decimated land populated by characters from dreams and nightmares. Loyalties are ever in question, suspicion in the minds of all. The realm, however, was not always so cruel. Everything began with a peaceful nation called Eleysia ... the Kingdom of the Wolf."

The empress and emperor are overthrown, a "power-hungry tyrant" takes over, everything is going to hell and then the title character and her wolf Fenrir show up to try and save the day. Intrigue, battles, persecution ... it's all there.

Maybe it's not so much sci, but seems firmly rooted in fi and fantasy for sure. Check out the trailer below.

Looks like the episodes will air at Riesetheseries.com.
