Hi all,

I recently launched a new RPG on Kickstarter, Altais: Age of Ruin.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...an-fantasy-rpg



Altais is a dystopian fantasy RPG set in the distant future, combing elements of sci-fi and magic together in a world full of fallen kingdoms, strange magic and planar travel.

The land is ruled by corrupt forces and undermined by constant conflict and rebellion.
Relic hunters raid the ruins of ancient cities in search of treasure, and adventurers explore other realms to discover their secrets. Many of the cities are in ruins or overgrown like this one:



Magic is one of the focuses of the game, and there are no arcane gestures or invocations involved. Magic users have the ability to weaken or strengthen the barriers between other realms, each of which has it's own unique properties. By allowing the energy from these realm in (or by denying the normal background amounts that seep through) spell casters can create all kinds of magical effect.

I recently posted a whole update about magic and the realms, check it out here:

One of the major threats to the land are creatures called the Rephaim. They come from one of the other realms, humans who have been mutated by its energies and some of them are thousands of years old and still have access to ancient technology.



There are other forces out there to threaten the players, a whole wild ecology that includes these sentient draconic creatures:


I'll be doing daily updates on the world, it's kingdoms, people and more so check it out and let me know if you have any questions, I'd love to know what aspects everyone finds most interesting :)

I leave you with the Lyse flower, a symbol used by the Parliament of White Lies to represent rebellion and murder.
Handing the flower and a name to one of their agents guarantees the target will be dead before the day is over.
