They say there have been eight worlds before ours. Eight times the people of this Earth, over vast millennia, built their civilizations, reaching heights we cannot even fully imagine now. They spoke to the stars, reshaped the creatures of the world, and mastered form and essence. They built cities and machines that have since crumbled to dust, leaving only their barest remnants.
This is the Ninth World. The people of the prior worlds are gone, scattered, disappeared, or transcended. But their works remain, in the places and devices that still contain some germ of their original function. The ignorant call these magic, but the wise know that these are our legacy. They are our future. They are the numenera.
Set a billion years in our future, Numenera is a tabletop roleplaying game about exploration and discovery. The people of the Ninth World suffer through a dark age, an era of isolation and struggle in the shadow of the ancient wonders crafted by civilizations millennia gone. But discovery awaits for those brave enough to seek out the works of the prior worlds. Those who can uncover and master the numenera can unlock the powers and abilities of the ancients, and perhaps bring new light to a struggling world.
Create characters with Discovery/Destiny books.
Add little bit of story who your character is and what type of occupation he have in Ninth World.
Game is kinda slow paced, i will post 2 posts per week mostly.
Number of players needed 3-4.
Dot! I'm so excited to see a Numenera game! I just made a post expressing interest in this game. I just got the Humble Bundle package and would be interested in playing my first game. I will submit a candidate ASAP.
Are there any regions in particular you think would make good starting locations?
I'm interested too!
Do you have any particular ideas on how to adapt the cipher system for pbp?
I'm interested. I've never played Numenera before so hopefully that's all right.
Also expressing interest. I haven't fully read the core sourcebooks you mentioned, though. When does recruitment close?
It's been a while since I've looked at Numenera. I might take a look again.
I am interested in trying Numenera as well. I'll pull something together.
I do not have the current books. How much has changed?
The total lack of updates, and no response to a PM I sent last week, are annoying.
