The Catastrophists

The Catastrophists takes place when scars from a world-wide war for the nature of reality itself have only just begun to fade, and that only in the places where fresh blood or otherworldly infections don't still run rampant. Civilizations were sent reeling, gods slain, coastlines redrawn, and mountains torn asunder; across the world new cities have risen from which a sorcererous elite closes an ever-more-skeletal grip on power, even as new threats begin to make their play.

Into this dangerous and flourishing garden of power and intrigue almost any place might be planted. Carve out your own corner of this strange, and terribly familiar, world and play in a magic-driven thriller with a narrative that develops based on the decisions of the players.

The game manages all this by combining fast-moving core mechanics, a setting worksheet to quickly make a place of your own, and a plot-map system that puts hooks in everything the character's hold dear.

Time to make some trouble, and change the world.

Designed as part of the #ChargeCreationJam in 2022, this game is Powered By Charge SRD and was made possible by René-Pier of Fari RPGs and the feedback of many in the Fari.App Discord community.

The game is currently in early release, with only the "Game Jam Edition" available. If you buy it now, you will have access to its final release and any other improvements or additions I make along the way. In the meantime it will remain Pay What You Want, and while any amount is appreciated at this point it is feedback (or just praise, if that's how you're feeling!) that is appreciated the most.
