Waste World - Roleplaying in a Savage Future
Das ganze System ist ein ziemlicher Sci-Fi Overkill¸ nichts für Leute die einfach Mad Max spielen wollen. Es gibt Mutanten¸ Psioniker¸ Cyborgs¸ Neo-Menschen etc. pp. Prinzipiell ist es ein post-apokalyptisches Setting mit einzelnen Stadtstaaten auf einer veseuchten Wüstenwelt. Jeder dieser Stadtstaaten stellt eine eigene Kultur (bzw. Klischee) dar.
In the dark future of a dying earth five warrior civilizations prepare for the final conflict. In each mighty megacity¸ technology is an ideology that shapes the destiny of billions. The enigmatic Machine Gods of Prometheus grant their followers the gift of bionics¸ and faith in total war. The ever-reincarnating samurai defend their Shogun with swords of light. The Lords of Hydra sculpt their followers into superhuman soldiers¸ using the terrifying power of biotechnology. The decadent nobles of Ikarus descend from their flying city in razor-winged battlesuits to prey on the lands below. The exiled aliens of Janus defend the world's last starport and pray that salvation will come from the stars.
The people of this ravaged planet fight for Drakonium¸ the most precious substance in the universe¸ the ultimate energy source. They know that without it¸ their cities will fall¸ their civilization will collapse and the poisoned deserts will claim their homes. They know they can never falter¸ never retreat¸ never stop fighting. There can be no mercy. There can only be conflict. It is all they know¸ and all they will ever know.
