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, starting October 18th, 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!
The introductory mini-campaign is “New Student Orientation.” You’ll play as new students at the prestigious Ætherium University. Your first task is a practical exam: a “simple” retrieval mission on a nearby Shard. It’s your chance to test your training, explore a unique world, and provide crucial feedback for a brand-new game.
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.
