Mutant
A Swedish-language post-nuclear-apocalypse RPG¸ set many years after world wars and great plague. The PCs are descendants of survivors¸ in a feudal Scandinavia that is slowly rebuilding. The rules are based on 3rd edDrakar och Demoner¸ with new rules for mental powers and mutations instead of magic. The 2nd edition kept the rules but converted it to a generic cyberpunk RPG without any post-apocalyptic aspect. The 3rd edition's title translates to ""Mutant: The Heirs of the Apocalypse"". It returns to the post-apocalyptic world of the first edition¸ with some changes. The rules have been simplified and streamlined. - A description from https://darkshire.net/jhkim/rpg/encyclopedia/ with kind permission of John H. KimWe walked among the gaping ruins and rusty car wrecks¸ monuments to the fall of the Ancients. Naphta had been taken by a Deathworm and the Rot had driven Hugust insane. We had no grub left and there was only rotwater to drink. But we had to keep going. We had to find Eden. We could not return to the Ark empty-handed¸ the fate of the People rested on our shoulders. Suddenly¸ Franton¸ the insect-like Stalker leading our way through the wasteland¸ stopped. "Zone-Ghouls”¸ he hissed¸ drawing his scrap rifle. I inhaled¸ ready to spew out a cascade of flames at anyone who dared come close. In the next instant¸ a chilling shriek rose from the ruins around us. Mutant: Year Zero takes you to the world after the great Apocalypse. Humanity's proud civilization has fallen. The cities are dead wastelands¸ winds sweeping along empty streets turned into graveyards. But life remains. Among the ruins¸ the People live. You are the heirs of humanity ‐ but not quite human anymore. Your bodies and minds are capable of superhuman feats. You are mutants.
