They come from the universes of “Battlestar Galactica”. * Has an additional +4 to any saving throws to any magic attacks. * Uses next higher die for rolling starting hit points (1d4>1d6>1d8>1d10>1d12) *As per the rulebook, additional +1 to Wealth. What you don't know is that some MIGHT have a liiiiiitttle thing in difference. They were here before the Vanishing, they were here after the Vanishing, and they'll be out there forever. Look at yourself in the mirror if you still need more. They're like you: two arms, two legs, opposing thumbs. They're 'meats', 'terrans', 'monkey-boys', whatever. Some limited, case-by-case use of the D20 Apocalypse and Past books.Īlso, some stuff by Skrittibrak, Fatal Error and some others (which I'l name when required). Some Fictions come from lower PL settings, however.īooks Used for this Setting: D20 Modern, D20 Future, Urban Arcana, D20 Weapons Locker, D20 BESM. Post-Vanishing: PL6 (mostly), and the Fictions still have the higher-tech stuff. During the 23 Hours of Madness, the Fictions have stuff from all across the higher-tech board (and Pre-Vanishing Humans will have to scavenge ¡if they want it). PL: -Pre-Vanishing: 5 with some 6 gadgets (run-of-the-mill Modern-Day Earth). They're all independent from each other (this one WILL contain the finished setting).ĮDIT: So far, the setting goes like this: The feeling behind it is sort of 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit?' gone wrong, mixed with post-apocalyptic movies (or zombie, disaster and monster movies, A and B-budgeted) and videogames (of the big-explosion action-adventure kind).Īny ideas, suggestions (please refrain from making flames) are to be posted on the three threads. The Fictions: They have access to powers and resources, but chances are they're more trouble that they're worth.

Well equipped and trained, but more often than not ill-prepared for what they may face. The Specialists: Spec-Ops operatives, government agents, cops. Well equipped and armed and trained, they work for the almighty dollar, or nuyen, or credit.

The Mercenaries: Soldiers, Techies, Pilots, Specialists. The Survivors: Supermarket employees, students, prisoners, 'innocent bystanders' of the Infection, that are now only equipped with their wits and whatever they could scavenge. The PCs are acting in one of several fronts: and one of the few that can change it back. You are one of the few that KNOW that the changes are real. The world as it was before the Vanishing is nothing more than an urban legend, something you tell your children to scare them. It is now anywhere from a week to a year after the Vanishing, and life goes as 'normal', Fictions and Reals going on and living together. Furthermore, the people who came back had been changed greatly-adapting to the madness around them as if it was the most normal thing. But the Fictions-who we believed to be once-had refused to leave. The 23 hours passed, and the people came back. The remaining people armed themselves, ready to fight for their own. The only people who saved themselves were chosen at random- some were asleep, other were away from computers, others were close to heavy electromagnetics.įor 23 hours, it was pure Madness-technology, locations and people we believed to be fictional had appeared, and in their living of their 'normal' lives, the countryside has done nothing more than suffer. All over the world-about 90% of its population-just.disappeared. Some strange sightings were reported everywhere.Īnd then came the Vanishing. Then came the Opening-several key cities around the world were covered with out-of-season nimbus clouds, and communications became harder. It was so sophisticated, it baffled a lot of people-like its name, they were 'CLULESS' about its origin, or ends. In the space of 23 hours, EVERYTHING'S changed.įirst, it was the Infection-the world-wide appearance of a computer virus. 'Ever hear of 'breaking the fourth wall'? Well, having the thing literally happen IN EVERYONE'S DAMM FACE really throws us off, more so when some of us realized that it was our own literary and animated fiction that basically broke the seven seals.'
