 |
Pirates of a Shattered World is a unique mix of many things. Part Fantasy¸ part post apocalypse¸ part sci fi¸ part pirate adventure¸ it offers a great blend of each of these things.

Taking place in the Fractured Sea---an archipelago filled with monsters and wreckage from the second apocalypse---it puts PCs in the roles of explorers¸ swashbucklers¸ science-mages¸ and brigands in a world of gunpowder¸ sorcery¸ altered beasts¸ and haunted ruins beneath the waves.
Gameplay in Pirates is fast and pulpy. Build your characters using Archetypes like Sailor¸ Mystic¸ Science Mage¸ or Courtier (among others) and races like Iguana Hybrid¸ Hobgoblin¸
Mutant¸ and Elyrian¸ then dig into the mechanics with a host of Attributes¸ Skills¸ Talents¸ Combat Techniques¸ and Spells to flesh them out how you want.
Welcome to the Fractured Seas.
Renard knew he was screwed¸ left holding the bag...literally. Yesterday he was told by his Captain he would be with a thieving party that would stick it to those Elven bastards. He was told the job was easy. Should have known better. Anytime someone goes out of their way to tell you it's easy¸ 9 times out of 10 it isn't. Now he was the only one alive out of the "thieving party”.
First thing was first¸ Renard had to escape this face off against 4 Elyrian guards. The Elves as most people call them are a cold bunch of bastards. Both sides stared at each other measuring each of their worth and potential skill. The Elyrians quietly talked among themselves almost cautious in case he understood them.
Renard had no idea what the pointy ear bastards were saying. Each sides knuckle became white as they tightened their grips on their swords. With his cutlass in his primary hand and a loaded pipe pistol in the other¸ Renard yelled with as much fury as he could muster¸ fired his pistol at the biggest one and charged the group.
