Red Giant

― James Baldwin, The Fire Next Time

RED GIANT: A CURSED WORLD RPG

Red Giant is a Tabletop Role Playing Game influenced by, but not limited to, anime and manga such as Vampire Hunter D, Berserk, and Claymore. Red Giant aims to recreate the various themes, dynamics, and scenarios seen in these types of media.

Red Giant is very adaptable and can be used in a myriad of ways to suit your tabletop game, as the core of this system provides many tools for use in creating your own customized session.

No one knows how the Red Giant came to be: some people believe it was an act of god, some believe it was due to ancient technology, but no matter how this planet became cursed, it is clear that

YOU CANNOT SAVE THIS WORLD.

Stories passed down through the ages all describe in detail a day long ago where the sun suddenly grew and became consumed in a blood red color. As the people stared at the sky a crimson haze slowly crept across the surface of the planet. It’s been said that this was the beginning of what was known as “the end of the world” or “the rapture” by people of that time. 

From this day forward humanity and the world that they knew was forever changed, horrific beings and aberrations began to rise, seemingly from the soil itself. Beings of absolute terror and structures the human mind cannot comprehend appeared from nothingness. It was not long before humanity was ultimately driven to the edge of extinction, facing these impossible threats.

People now eke out a small existence throughout the lands attempting to avoid or defeat the horrors and creatures that have awakened from the planet in order to survive, but for what and for what cost?
