Metro:Otherscape Corebook

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Demons with railguns. Spirits in cybersapce. Gods in the slums.

:Otherscape Mythic Cyberpunk Tabletop RPG

:Otherscape is a fantasy-cyberpunk role-playing game that combines supernatural powers inspired by mythology and legend with the gritty neon-lit streets of a sprawling futuristic Megacity.

It takes your game group on a rollercoaster ride of gunfights, vehicle chases, cyberspace heists, urban wasteland exploration, clashes of mythology and technology, faction wars, and philosophical questions about the nature of being human — and how to transcend it.

Mythic-Powered Mercs

You play as a crew of opeartives, hired-guns, or survivors caught in the new global arms race between corporations, collapsing governments, and crime syndicates, all rushing to secure Sources of mythical power and cutting-edge tech. You could be:

  • A sourcerous gunslinger shooting enchancted bullets
  • A chromed-up Norse cyborg wielding the power of Mjölnir
  • A spirit of knowledge revelling in cyberspace
  • A scavenger and smuggler of illegal Sources, exlporing the urban wilds
  • A corporate executive who strikes bargains with the Devil's seal
  • And much more!

A Perfect Mix of Cinematic and Tactical

:Otherscape is powered by the Mist Engine, an improved and streamlined version of the cinematic City of Mist engine:

  • Craetivity unchained with characters made of keywords, not predefined stats, allowing you to create any imaginable character, tech, or magic system.
  • No more endless subsystems to memorize - resolve all actions with one simple yet highly customizable roll.
  • Move seamlessly between narrative and tactical action resolution, keeping the story moving and the conflicts rich and rewarding.
  • Choices transform gameplay: Characters transform based on their motivations and roleplay, and can evolve into different types of being such as cyborg, singularity, or transhuman, which endow them with new power sets and abilities.
  • Play in the :Otherscape setting or any cyberpunk setting of your choice; this open system is easily adapatable to any universe.

I could be running this right now on Roll20 with a character sheet like the one you have for City of Mist. I wouldn't even need the fancy animations, just a sheet with all the necessary fields and a button to roll 2D6.

We're reviewing our entire VTT setup at the moment including Roll20, Foundry, and Alchemy with the intention of supporting all of our game lines, including :Otherscape, of course. We hope to have it all worked out within a month or two, please sign up for our newsletter for updates.

Any hope that we can see VTT modules for Foundry (preferable), Fantasy Grounds (less preferable) or Roll20 (least preferable)?

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
