The Gaia Complex is a cyberpunk RPG set on earth in 2119. Towards the end of the 21st century, the third world war, which became known as the Resource War, pushed mankind to the brink of destruction and brought ruin to the Earth’s atmosphere. Small pockets of humanity survived this horrific war, eventually forming the eleven metropolises which have managed to grow and prosper on account of the development of atmospheric processing and significant advancements in technology. Now cut off from each other, these heaving urban landscapes must each face their own difficulties and hardships. The Gaia Complex focuses on the largest of these metropolises; New Europe, a single sprawling city that covers much of what we currently know as mainland Europe. New Europe is a world of street violence, corporate espionage, vampiric uprisings and an overzealous A.I., known as Gaia, which functions as the city’s governor and the protector of its citizens.
The Gaia Complex is a dystopian world of urban violence, exploring the age of cybernetic enhancement through a vision of Earth that is somehow ‘changed’. This vision of the future injects both vampires and a strange species of people known as ferals, who are able to enter the minds of animals. This is a game of conspiracy and brutality, where players take on the roles of Mercs; former police officers, hackers and street-savvy dealers who are hired to fight back against the system and ultimately unravel the secrets of The Gaia Complex.
The Gaia Complex core book features:
- A huge wealth of background, setting and lore to flesh out the world of 2119.
- Multiple pieces of short fiction outlining the under-pinning story of The Gaia Complex.
- A streamlined character creation process and bespoke rules system (known as 12.3) that will have players hitting the streets in no time at all.
- Resources for players and GMs alike, including a number of pre-written scenarios known as ‘Data Seeds’, a library of NPCs and more hardware than you‘ll know what to do with.
- A huge amount of gorgeous art that explores the places, people and items that populate New Europe and beyond.
It’s time to go Merc!
