Game System: Shattered World (Custom System)
This is a homebrew sci-fantasy game, built on a d20 roll-over engine with a feel similar to 5e. No prior knowledge is required (or indeed possible!).
When do you play:
Biweekly on Saturdays, next session November 1st, 2025. Sessions are slotted from 6:00 PM to approximately 10:00 PM EDT (GMT-4). We usually run about 2.5-3 hours, but I reserve the right to use the whole four hours.
Brief Description of the game/setting/premise:
This is a playtest for a sci-fantasy TTRPG, Shattered World! The playstyle will be a mix of tactical combat, skill-based problem-solving, and RP-heavy character interaction.
Are you ready for an adventure on an exploded planet? You’ll explore Syseria, a [literally] broken world forged as an idyllic gem by a now slumbering, manic-depressive god. Magic is powered by Bloodstones—raw bits of reality—and the world itself is a cloud of shattered continents. Think Dungeons & Spaceships!
Additional Details:
This is a paid playtest. Compensation is $5 per player, per session, payable via PayPal upon receipt of feedback survey. In exchange, I will be looking for your focused attention during the game and honest feedback after the session via a short survey.
Characters: Pre-generated characters will be provided for this first session to allow us to jump straight into the mechanics.
Platform: The game will be run on Foundry with voice chat via Discord. A decent microphone is required. I will be streaming but you are in no way required to show your face.

Thank you for being a Fremen
Travel to the sietch and back again
Your eyes are blue, you’re a Duke and a Muad’Dib
And if you crossed the desert,
And invited every sandworm you knew…
You would see, the purest spice would be from me
And the glow in my eyes would say
Thank you for being a Fremen.
