Rapture the Second Coming

Lucifer, the “Light Bearer,” announced his return in August 1945, with the fire of two new suns. When they flashed into existence over two cities in Japan, the last sight thousands saw before their retinas melted were the compassionate and smoldering eyes of the Fallen One. Nothing remained but the faint shadows of their souls etched into the concrete ruins of buildings and streets. A new age had dawned, for Earth had become the Throne of Hell.

FADING SUNS (Second Edition) roleplaying game rulebook

It is the dawn of the sixth millenium after Christ and the skies are darkening, for the suns themselves are fading. Humans reached the stars long ago, building a Republic of high technology and universal emancipation -- and then squandered it, fought over it, and finally lost it. A New Dark Age has descended upon humanity, for the greatest of civilizations has fallen and now even the stars are dying. Feudal lords rule the Known Worlds, vying for power with fanatic priests and scheming guilds.

Fading Suns Heretics & Outsiders

The Known Worlds are rife with those who refuse to follow the social order. Whether practicing their rebellion in private or fomenting public revolt, these malcontents threaten the powers-that-be. Heretics refuse to follow the Church’s doctrines of proper faith, and so risk their own souls and those of others through their example. Psychics plot to overthrow mundane humanity — or worse, attempt to force psychic awakening on others through the mysterious Sathra Effect.

Spies & Revolutionaries

Blur suits and wireblades now complement the cloaks and daggers of the past. In the 51st century, spies are a necessary evil. Without their deft fieldwork and cunning intelligence, noble reigns would topple and guild monopolies crumble. Although small in number and incognito in guise, these spies daily betray trusts, seed lies and mistruths, steal high-tech secrets and even poison rivals — all in pursuit of their patrons’ power. Even the Church plays these games of death and deceit, using ill-gotten secrets to sway their secular rivals — or protect them from a greater darkness.

Legions of the Empire

In the far-future Fading Suns universe, might equals power. No one rules for long without military might to back him up - even the Patriarch has a fleet of battle cruisers! This book brings out the Known Worlds' most dangerous people and places with a bang, allowing gamemasters to put players in the middle of the bloodiest conflicts against the most feared warriors - including the Symbiot-fighting Stigmata Garrison! New weaponry and war tech provide numerous excuses to blow things up.

Merchants of the Jumpweb

The nobles and the Church may vie for the leadership and minds of the Known Worlders, but the merchants own the stars. Without their high-tech savvy or the loans from their coffers, travel and commerce could not take place. This book details the histories and modus operandi of the Merchant League guilds, from the weird Engineers to the stately Reeves.

Sinners & Saints

Here is a rogues gallery of people and creatures from the Known Worlds and beyond: noble rivals, well-meaning (and not so well-meaning) priests, space pirates, deadly mercenaries, assassins, alien animals (pets and predators), bizarre creatures and more. Each has a story to tell and will lead player characters into intrigue and adventure. Each comes on its own sheet for ease of use by both players and gamemasters.

Colombia: d20

Colombia’s history is rife with revolution. From the Spanish conquests of the 16th century to the 19th- and 20th-century peasant uprisings, the land has seen much spilt blood and little stability. In the modern era, the Drug War ups the ante even more, with drug lords, leftists guerillas, right-wing paramilitaries, and U.S. special ops troops and mercenaries all fighting one another for what they perceive as theirs, whether it be money, political power or protection of oil pipelines. The little guy, as always, is caught in the middle, trapped between warring ideologies.

Somalia: d20

For centuries a battleground for empires and enemies, Somalia is no stranger to war and strife. During the Cold War, the United States and the U.S.S.R. sent tons of weapons to this country, and these quickly spread throughout the land. However, the post-Cold War era provided the worst weapon: famine. Turned into a tool of extermination by ruthless warlords, Somalia soon became a test for the rest of the world’s ability and resolve to bring peace. This grand effort to create a New World Order died in the sands next to the gaunt corpses of starved babies.

Afghanistan: d20

Long before war rocked its steepest mountains and destroyed its dreams, Afghanistan civilization had lasted for millennia, giving birth to philosophers, scholars, warriors and poets. Alexander the Great made its lands a central part of his empire, and Mongols, British, Russians and others have fought over its rough lands and stark beauty.
