A science-fantasy roleplaying game of outlandish action-adventure
(pre-release playtest v0.1.0)
Hi everyone,
For those following along with the development of this game, BIG changes are coming! After pausing for about a year to see if any movement would happen with Cortex licensing (it didn't), I decided to move forward with a new and original system to run Relics of the Moon. I am in the beginning stages of designing and testing this new system—tentatively titled the Dream Team Game System—and I'm very excited about it! It's the team-focused RPG system I've wanted over the years. It transforms how play flows at the table...so much so that I had to build a custom dice roller just to handle the mechanics for online playtests.
I'm in the process of revising this website as playtests continue and the system develops. While most of the lore/worldbuilding for Anasta so far remains in place, there are a few changes here and there as the setting continues to grow. I am archiving the Cortex-based mechanics and will introduce the Dream Team mechanics as they are developed. If you are searching for the Cortex-based version of this game, contact me and I'll share the materials with you.
For now, explore a bit of Anasta, the World Reborn from the remants of the Moonfall...
Guide Destiny and Doom
in a World Torn between Past and Future
The world of Anasta has finally stabilized 10,000 years after the Moonfall. The great catastrophe transformed the world, filling it with new lifeforms that display unusual physical and psionic abilities. Nascent forms of civilization are beginning to rise. These are far from the heights of the former Moon-dwelling Archons, however, who once guided creation with their reality-warping technology. Moonshards—the literal fragments of the previous civilization—hold the key to the Archons' ancient Psience and give those who control them the power to rise above all others.
Or do they? Some seek to bury and burn the past and lead the world into a new age powered by the Sun. Others have their own ancient secrets which are whispered to rival those of the First Ones. The future of the world is far from decided and will be shaped by the actions of the bold. What path will you take? Will the world flourish around you and your companions, or fall back into chaos? What do you hope to bring to the world transformed by Relics of the Moon?
