Equinox Storygame Guide (English)
 |
In the dark night of a distant future¸ the shattered remains of Earth drift through the cold void of space. The shadows of the past have been driven away¸ and the dark clouds at the horizon appear to be man-made. After the Great Netherwar¸ which resulted in the destruction of Earth¸ mankind is restless¸ scattered across the void¸ bereft of its cradle. The Sol system became the last safe hideout for outcasts both mystic and mundane. Known as Vagrants¸ they are rebels to the oppressive might of the Consortium-the government ruling over what's left of Earth and its colonies.
True freedom can only be found among the stars¸ the voices of the galactic underground say.
T o them¸ the war isn't over.
It has only just begun.
