Eclipse Phase

Overview

Eclipse Phase is a detailed science-fiction exploration of uncertain futures. It investigates the nature of transhumanity as it transforms itself, physically and mentally, into something posthuman. It balances the immense dangers of advanced technologies with a vision of how we can negate these risks and enhance our capabilities to improve and prosper as a species.

Description

Transhumanity stands on the terminus of evolution and extinction. With the ability to upload our minds and nanofabricate almost anything, death and scarcity were nearly defeated. Then a war against super-intelligent AIs infected with an alien virus wiped out 95% of the population. Earth is a ruined wasteland, overrun by machines. The remnants of transhumanity—bio-engineered humans, uplifted animals, and infolife—expanded throughout the Solar System. The AIs left behind a network of wormhole gates that we now use to explore and occupy distant exoplanets. A new cabal of hypercorps and oligarchs seek to preserve outmoded political and economic systems, while patchwork factions of radical scientists and techno-anarchists experiment with new social models, from each according to their imagination and to each according to their need.
Characters switch their bodies—called a morphs—at will. Choose from genetically-modified transhumans, synthetic robotic shells, uplifted animals, or digital infomorphs, optimizing your capabilities for specific missions.
Your character’s mind and memories are backed up and can be restored if you die—a built-in system of “save points” and functional immortality.
Characters are skill-based, with no classes, so players can customize their team roles and specialize in fields of their choosing.
A package-buy system enables quick character creation and customization while also defining elements of your character’s background.
Gear and morph tracking is simplified with the use of gear packs and points for each mission.

Hi, my name's Ensley (he/him) and I guess at this point it's fair to call me a grognard, but not one of those grognards - I'm a cishet man in my mid-50s, and I have zero problems/issues with pronouns or LGBTQIA folks, I'm politically progressive, and believe Nazis should be punched. Repeatedly. That's as clear as I can make all of that, I think. I've been playing ttrpgs since the early 1980s starting off with the original AD&D, Star Frontiers, Marvel FACERIP, and the the rest of the TSR lineup, and over the years I've played a LOT of diferent systems, genres, and settings - various editions of Call of Cthulhu, FATE, Savage Worlds, Mothership, Star Trek (in various system including 2d20 STA), PbtA, etc., etc. Recently I've been playing Draw Steel, Triangle Agency, War Stories, and Lex Arcana. I'm pretty burnt out with traditional high fantasy games, and enjoy trying out new systems (hence the "newbie" tag in a lot of the experience listings above). In terms of playstyle, I like solid roleplay opportunities mixed with medium-crunch mechanical & combat support. I can get realy bored with a classic dungeon crawl really quick (I will inevitably Leroy Jenkins that crap after the fifth time someone elaborately checks a door for traps). So, yeah - that's me. Thanks for reading and feel free to reach out.
