This is a beautifully presented and well written book. See more approach it. Really cool concepts in the game, love to see how it grows and develops. Check out their Kickstarter, it has way more information. I'm always interested in cyberpunk themed material, but there seems to be very little description of this game anywhere, even on the publisher's site.
It's all basically the same text as above. Can anyone supply a little more detail? While I haven't picked up the rpg yet, I did quite enjoy the novel years ago, and still have a copy today! It's far from conventional Cyberpunk. It involves strange feathers drugs one tickles one's throat with. Different color feathers result in various shared hallucinatory effects. The quest in the novel, then, involves Scribble chasing down his sister and interfacing with various nefarious ne'erdowells in hopes of finding and freeing Desdemona.
I know Jeff Noon was involved in the creation of this game, so I'd imagine it's up to snuff, but I haven't pulled the trigger on it yet. There are far too many other goodies awaiting my mindgrapes. Maybe because when I read the novel at the time, the themes and language used felt rather contemporary yet fantastical. Maybe the feather you took could have been based on your favourite DnD or Cathulu adventure? But real it was, and around the end of World War II the first mathemagicians began to prove it.
These people began to see existence as pure numbers and their equations could do things to reality we hadn't seen before. Basically, the discovery that Earth was just a single facet of a big, fucking, multidimensional Univurt rewrote the science books and allowed us to start doing things previously confined to science fiction.
Ridiculously tall skyscrapers. Reality had become a lot more plastic, and that's the kind of thing that is bound to lead to trouble. A string of world-shaking disasters ensued, and the biggest of these was a plague of sterility that threatened the human race with one-generation-left extinction.
So some geniuses came up with Fecundity 10, a viral mathemagical fertility drug that basically turned people into insane nymphomaniacs and satyromaniacs. Think the rabid zombie people in 28 Days Later that want to hump the shit out of you instead of kill you.
They didn't just screw people; they screwed animals and corpses and robots later they screwed Vurt beings too , and because this drug guaranteed fertility, and the walls of reality were basically Jell-O After a few outbreaks of Fecundity 10 there isn't just a human race but 31 modes of being, for your basic Dogman to Robomanshadodogs, five separate categories of being all mixed up like a rubix cube no one has bothered solving.
Oh but wait: you wanted to hear about the feathers. A feather that opens a door. A door that opens out to infinite worlds. And now a tabletop RPG that lets you explore them all. Amid the glass-strewn streets of the lethal and anarchic Manchester England of the near future, players ingest slender Vurt feathers to travel to parallel worlds as vivid, unique, and unpredictable as our wildest dreams.
These worlds - and all the wonders and horrors they contain - are as a real, and every bit as dangerous, as the one you were born in. Vurt the RPG is a Cypher System game, and both the page hardcover corebook and pdf contain the complete Cypher System rules, modified to bring the grittiness of cyberpunk streets and the vibrant freedom of dreams to your game sessions.
That means that, other than pencil, paper and a couple of dice, the Vurt corebook is all you need to play the game. Ravendesk Games is very proud to be the first full licensee to bring a game to market using the Cypher System. The Vurt corebook has over all new cyphers, loads of full adventures, a bestiary for both the real world and the vurt world, pregenerated characters and an enormous, page setting chapter which delves with great detail into the boroughs and districts of Greater Manchester, the worlds largest megacity.
