Mutant Chronicles 3E: Core Rulebook

In the late 21st century, a growing madness of plagues, wars, terrorism and environmental collapse led to the rushed terraforming of the colonies by the major corporations, an exodus from Earth and the final cataclysmic nuclear war. It takes hundreds of years to re-establish life as we know it on the inner worlds of our solar system. Imperial, Capitol, Bauhaus and Mishima now rule from their homes in the steaming jungles of Venus, the caverns of Mercury, the deserts of Mars and the many orbitals and asteroid homes of the solar system. Luna City is a vast neutral sprawl, many hundreds of years old, built up and over the first colony and mines.

A fateful exploratory mission to Pluto unleashes an ancient evil force — The Dark Symmetry — upon the thinking machines of man. As technology fails (and even fights back), mankind is beset with conspiracy and corporate intrigue from within. Dark things gather on the edges of the colonies and whilst corporate war consumes the greatest armies of man, the Dark Legion's citadels rise up throughout the worlds of the solar system and terrifying armies march out to consume all. They were defeated long ago, they will not be defeated this time...

As the Dark Symmetry's malign influence on humanity grows, the Brotherhood with their strange powers, arise to unite the corporate armies as one and fight back.

Mutant Chronicles: Techno Fantasy Roleplaying Game - 3rd Edition fills in the gaps in the original Mutant Chronicles storyline, expanding the backstory and plotting secret events that will carry your adventures through a thousand years of future history. Now you can play during the early days of the Dark Symmetry with investigations of foul cults and technology turning on mankind, through to the brutal Corporate Wars and then fight the Dark Legion as they pour forth from their citadels across the colonies.

For the third edition of the Mutant Chronicles roleplaying game, Jay Little, award-winning designer of Star Wars: Edge of the Empire, created a new d20 based cinematic game system to reflect the chaotic, harsh life of the universe.
