A Nano-infested Doomsday RPG 

The world is ending. ⸐
Again and again and again and again and again a̶n̴͗d̵̥͒ ̸̎ă̶ġ̸a̵̢͗i̶͙̓n̸̡̔ ă̵̢̫̥̺̻̞n̵͔̽̿̏̓͋͠͝d̴̢̪̟͊ ̵̡̺̖̰̯͖̞̓̑̐̈́̍̋a̶̤̘̖͗͐̀̔̚̚g̴̛͇̻̦̻͇̲̈́̏à̷̩̫͒ḯ̷̡̱̀̀̀͠ṇ̶̦̔͜.

Constantly in flux; shifting, distorting, always reborn as something worse. Destruction by ecological catastrophes, the fallout of history’s belligerence; by modern man-made Miseries or the blood spilled by the reckless machine of capitalist supremacy. Mankind’s greatest ability truly is to destroy itself in creative ways. Designer demise, consumer-customized death, endlessly on repeat.

CY_BORG is a complete rules-light, rage-heavy tabletop roleplaying game about cybernetic misfits and punks raging against a relentless corporate hell. Based on and compatible with MÖRK BORG. Easy to play, easy to hack. 

Includes:

  • A drive-by description of the megacity Cy.
  • Quick and dirty character creation.
  • d66 Miserable Headlines.
  • Random Generators facilitating near-endless play.
  • Equipment like guns and specialized ammo booster plug-ins.
  • 25+ foes to fight.
  • The introductory heist Lucky Flight Takedown.

Poisonous space rocks, nuclear weapons, cyclical revolutions, warring nations, warring corporations, warring neighbors; pandemics, tsunamis, volcanoes. In between it all: direct person-machine interfaces, tactical neural implants, and bacteria from outer space hijacking intercellular nanorobotics. And the sky is full of ads.

Everyone is interfaced/injected/infected/infested with something. Everyone wants something from everyone else. Everyone is a liar and a cheat. Everyone wants more creds.

Welcome to the year 20X3.
