Pandora's Wake
A Post Apcalyptic RPG By B F Irving
​
Pandora's wake is an exciting Post Apocalyptic setting in which survivors struggle to live day to day in a world overrun by the hellish creatures of a nightmare world. Bandits and rival groups add to the danger, and the radioactive wastes of man's attempt to drive back the Other-Verse with nuclear weapons dot the landscape.
You can also read a serialized story set in the world of Pandora's Wake here for free.
The game uses the 3rd generation of the Gethsemane Games Roleplay Rules which are highly adaptable to your own play stile. You will need 2 ten sided dice to play (or a dice roller app, of course).
The Pandora Event ripped holes in the very fabric of our reality. Holes that let The Other-Verse in, a nightmarish world beyond our own, filled with deadly flora and fauna.
​
Deadly bacteria and viruses that we had no defence against brought human civilisation to it's knees. As plagues swept away two thirds of the human race, the alien life-forms of the Other-Verse began to emerge through the cracks in the walls of our reality, ever expanding, out competing native, terrestrial life, hunting Earth's own biosphere to the brink of extinction. Turning our world into a hellish copy of the Other-Verse itself. Such is the world into which your characters will step, to struggle for survival against carnivorous plant life and predatory alien creatures as well as desperate gangs of raiders and bandits, competing for the scarce resources that have been left behind in... Pandora's Wake.

Spelldancer
A Fantasy RPG by B F Irving

Spelldancer brings to life a dark fantasy world where beast-men races vie for their place in the world, amongst the ancient spirit races and the forlorn giants.

​
Now the races of the beast-spawn have spread their influence to almost all of he world, driving the giants to the edge of extinction, and shunning the dark, dangerous places beloved of the Spirits.
Dark magic and panoramic cultures bring this alien world to life and open never-ending possibilities for adventure.

The Entropy Effect
A game of reality-bending Sci-Fi Horror by B F Irving and M R McGowan
Comming in 2018/2019
In “The Entropy Effect”, players play entropy stalkers, genetically engineered from captured human DNA, sent to Earth to undo the damage to reality caused by the disastrous failure of the experiments conducted by their alien masters, the Gubulon.
The Gubulon are an alien race gifted with psychic abilities. In an attempt to fully understand their psychic talents, they perform experiments crossbreeding their DNA with that of other species, examining the effects. One such race, the Starbeasts, proved to be such a successful crossbreed they escaped captivity, thwarting the Gubulon, and eluding easy capture. Starbeasts alter reality by existing within it, and cause strange events to arise. This alteration is caused by Entropy, leaked by young and adolescent Starbeasts, unable to control their psychic powers.
Entropy leaking into reality causes it to bend away from normal parameters, and Entropy Stalkers follow the resulting anomalies, tracking down the errant Starbeasts and re-establishing reality.
