Riggers: Meta-Humans in a Shattered World

It has been 70 years since the Event. Earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamis ravaged the globe. Continents heaved and buckled for three decades, re-shaping the world. Civilization shattered. There is very little left of what had come before. But people survived. People rebuilt.

And people changed.

They are the Riggers. More than human, but treated as less than people. You have come into this world in Elisus, a growing metropolis and a place of hope. Maybe you don’t belong here. Maybe nobody does. All you know is that you are a Rigger and you are being hunted.

Riggers: Meta-Humans in a Shattered World is an RPG of meta-powered people set in a post-apocalyptic world. This is a story-focused game with simple mechanics and characters based on descriptive qualities. It is a cooperative game that has a fixed role for its GM but provides player with equal narrative control. The game includes a basic setting, explaining the Shattered World, how it came to be, and what adventures might be found in it.

NOTE: This system requires cooperation at the table and a shared goal of telling a great story. It is the premise of SEP systems that the game experience should be fun for everyone and no player should be made uncomfortable unless that is a part of the experience of which they were informed and to which they agree. Shared respect and consideration among all participants are key to achieving a satisfying and enjoyable game for everyone at the table. If you disagree, this system and SEP games more widely are not going to meet your expectations or complement your play style.
