Ngen Mapu - A World of Adventure (Fate)
 |
The Land is sick¸ and humans are the cause.
Not all of them¸ of course¸ and therein lies the problem. Civilization-that brash¸ incomprehensible¸ recent invention of humanity-tends to corrupt what it does not understand. And people really don't truly understand the Land (or mapu)... not any more.
As ngen-mighty¸ immortal¸ shapeshifting¸ and largely pacifistic beings from beyond the dawn of time-you each act as guardian of some aspect of the Land¸ be it water¸ laughter¸ lightning¸ dreams¸ or some other essential concept of existence. It's your job to undo the harm done to the Land and thereby move the world towards a better form.
But how can you guard the Land against something you barely understand yourself¸ when the path of violence risks turning you toward corruption and becoming a wekufe¸ a creature of darkness and destruction? Find out in Ngen Mapu¸ a new Fate World of Adventure of South American urban fantasy from Felipe Real.
Inside this 43-page supplement you'll find:
- An urban fantasy setting that merges modern civilization with the South American myths of the Mapuche people
- Rules and advice on shifting away from conflicts as the main form of resolution¸ to support the pacifistic approaches of the ngen
- Three new skills to reflect the preternatural abilities of the ngen: Heart¸ Wisdom¸ and Shapeshift (as well as some other alterations to the default Fate Core skill list)
- Rules for tainted fate points which tempt the ngen towards corruption
- Scale rules representing how difficult it is to change an aspect of the world with your mythic abilities
- A starting adventure for your ngen: The Mother in the Doorstep
Take the form of an animal¸ a stream¸ a leaf¸ a person¸ an idea.
Restore the Land as one of the ngen.
