The God-Tower Heist
 |
A Cypher science fantasy adventure for Tier 3-4 characters¸ compatible with other science fantasy settings.
The God-Tower! A mysterious building left by the Ancients before their civilization collapsed¸ now a mere status symbol used by the petty nobles of Future Earth.
But you work for someone who believes the God-Tower is far more valuable -- that the secrets of the Ancients contained therein can help restore Future Earth to its past technological glory. The mad scientist Natian Harrell has contracted you to infiltrate the God-Tower when its master¸ Lord Malcolt¸ hosts a party for Chenton's elite within. Slipping away from the party¸ you will access an Ancient computer terminal¸ and steal the Ancients' research data so that Natian can resurrect their work.
But the Ancients' technology is dangerous¸ and your job will become far more than a simple heist....
During this adventure¸ the player characters will confront a transhumanist cult of cyborgs¸ retrieve a cache of Ancient technology from the wilderness¸ explore an Ancient underwater ruin¸ solve puzzles while piecing together the language of the Ancients¸ and finally explore the God-Tower itself.
This adventure includes:
Eight new creatures and NPCs to threaten your characters. Two ruins left by the Ancients of Future Earth: the Flooded Obelisk and the titular God-Tower. Ten new cyphers. Four new artifacts. Two new pieces of equipment. One new faction¸ the transhumanist Cult of Steel Rebirth.
