Fifth Season RPG Up On Backerkit

ByDaniel Kling Lorentsen

If you’re looking for a new place to set your RPGs and especially if you’re a fan of N.K. Jemsin’s Broken Earth trilogy of novels, you’ll want to check out The Fifth Season RPG. It’s a new RPG from Green Ronin Publishing that’s up on Backerkit now.

From the campaign:

The Fifth Season Roleplaying Game is designed for you to play out adventures and stories set in the world described in the Broken Earth trilogy of novels by N.K. Jemisin—a world where constant and unstable tectonic and volcanic activity threaten all life; a world whose peoples have learned to adapt in order to survive. It is a world where everyone learns that Father Earth hates his children and is always trying to kill them, where metal rusts and even stone crumbles, and the best you can do is be prepared for the next disaster. In the world of the Broken Earth, community—the comm—is everything, because in community there is support and a chance to persevere.

The campaign is up and over its funding goal with 29 days left to go.
