MCG028 The Strange Core Rule Book Hard Cover RPG Monte Cook Games
The Strange. It is an RPG set on Earth, in the modern day. But a few people a very few people have discovered how to travel to other places. They call them recursions, and they are like limited pocket dimensions with their own laws of reality, connected to Earth via a dark energy network beneath the normal matter of the universe. A dangerous, chaotic network they call the Strange.
Recursions spawn from the myths, legends, and fiction of humanity, so the setting of virtually any story, film, or novel could form a recursion, as could any mythical realm or place of legend. They are not entire parallel universes they are limited in scope, rarely larger than a continent and sometimes not much bigger than a city block. Often the denizens are not even self aware, but are little more than automatons going through the motions of their fictional world.
Your character is quickened; you are one of the ones who can travel into Earths shoals to discover and explore the seemingly limitless recursions around our world. Oz. Barsoom. Asgard. The Dreamlands. The Victorian London of Sherlock Holmes. The setting of your favorite novel or movie. Worlds even more exotic or bizarre, driven by laws of magic, psionics, or weird science. When you visit these worlds, you adapt to them, taking on some of the physical aspects and knowledge of the natives. You become, in part at least, a different version of yourself.
What will you find when you venture into Earths shoals? And what will find you, as you travel into. . .
