An interesting looking new RPG has arrived from Draco Studios following a successful Kickstarter. Eldritch Century take place in an alternate 20th century as a great schism has taken place following WWI, throwing the world into chaos. The two game books are available together in PDF at DriveThruRPG for $32.50.

From Draco Studios:

For 66 years, the Miasma has been slowly eating away at the World. This led to a violent schism in humanity, leading to the formation of six factions with extreme and diametrically opposing agendas. On this Wounded Earth, the unearthing of ancient and forbidden secrets led to the development of weird technology, while eldritch beings slowly plunge us into the unknowable. With the world powers ready to go at each other’s throats, the only thing keeping us from falling over the edge is the Minerva Initiative, a secret multi-lateral organization seeking to understand these mysteries and, hopefully, put an end to the horrors they beget. This is the end of history; this is the Eldritch Century. 

Eldritch Century  is fully compatible with the 5e ruleset including the stats, powers and abilities. In addition the book details the Draco System. In this system, each character is created following a series of prompts based on the setting. We call this character creation concept the Exegesis System. This helps define where they are from, who they meet and establishes their Paths. The Paths are what gives each character their abilities, Powers and uses of their Effort Slots. A player may be able to take up to 3 Paths depending on their decisions during character creation. The Power System is freeform, and each Faction has their own style, which can be shaped Eldritch Century Interior (Draco Studios)on the run. As a result, a Sino Siberian that takes the Teslamancer path but had to endure a long bureaucratic process will be different from a Teslamancer that got into the Sino-Siberian Mandate party from childhood.
