Eclipse Phase is the post-apocalyptic game of conspiracy and horror. Humanity is enhanced and improved, but also battered and bitterly divided. Technology allows the re-shaping of bodies and minds, but also creates opportunities for oppression and puts the capability for mass destruction in the hands of everyone. And other threats lurk in the devastated habitats of the Fall, dangers both familiar and alien. In this harsh setting, the players participate in a cross-faction conspiracy called Firewall that seeks to protect transhumanity from threats both internal and external. Along the way, they may find themselves hunting for prized technology in a gutted habitat falling from orbit, risking the hellish landscapes of a ruined earth, or following the trail of a terrorist through militarized stations and isolationist habitats. Players may even find themselves stepping through a Pandora Gate, a wormhole to distant stars and the alien secrets beyond.
THE SYSTEM
- Eclipse Phase uses a d100/percentile system, with some twists. It's fast and simple; streamlined so players can dive into the world and action without being burdened by complex rules.
- Characters are skill-based, with no classes, so players can customize their team roles and specialize in fields of their choosing.
- A focused set of psi rules enables some characters to enhance their cognitive abilities.
FOR PLAYERS
- Play a role in a secretive and dangerous conspiracy—Firewall—that seeks to save transhumanity.
- Switch your body at will, from genetically modified transhumans to synthetic robotic shells, optimizing your character for specific missions.
- Back up your character's mind and be restored from backup in case of death--a built-in system of "Save points" and functional immortality.
FOR GAMEMASTERS
- A setting custom-built for numerous scenario types, from faction-based intrigues to high-tech dungeon-crawls, from mind-scarring mysteries to dangerous exploration of alien worlds via wormhole gates.
