Echoes of the Veil (EoTV) is a fast, cinematic tabletop RPG hacked for CBR+PNK (Forged in the Dark system) where players take on the roles of cyberpunk rebels, mystics, and glitch-born outcasts trying to survive (and rewire) a world ruled by corporate greed. Echoes of the Veil is inspired by revolutionary movements and is for a Game Moderator and 2–5 players. It's specifically crafted for mini-campaigns but also one-shots.

WHAT THIS STAND-ALONE EXPANSION BRINGS

-> A world-building toolkit of the Neon Spires/Neon Veil: its districts, cultures, politics, and resistance. 
 -> Maps of the world.
-> The run.
-> A vast array of NPC's.
-> Dialogue samples.
-> Rules-Light:  easy to understand rules that make sense. If you own CBR+PNK the redesign will make everything much clearer.
-> Five Meta-Human Heritages and six Meta-Talents with unique physical evolutions and cultural tensions bringing Weird Magik.
-> Sick mechanics for the Weird, Weird Drawbacks and Weird Consequences for each MeTa.
-> A flexible system of Weird Stuff like single-use relics, black market mods, and ritual-powered gear.
-> New brutal mechanics for augments, upgrades, glitches: visit a Ripperdoc and see what happens.
-> A deepened Attune system for mystics, sensitives, and those who listen to the unseen.
-> Original illustrations in almost every single page.
-> Tools for mini-campaigns that can be adapted to one-shots.
-> Built for accessibility: no shortcuts to clarity for the sake of aesthetics.
-> 100% Human-Made.

WHY MAKE ECHOES OF THE VEIL?

CBR+PNK is an ultra-minimalist system. And that's great. But as a neurodivergent GM, running games from just a handful of pamphlets? That left me overwhelmed and paralyzed. I needed more.

I needed art. I needed depth. I needed texture and that extra sauce. So I made it.

Echoes of the Veil is the 100-page (may be slightly more!) stand-alone expansion I hope you need too. Filled with Weird Stuff, rich story blocks, full-color art in almost every single page I illustrated, and mechanics hacked through real play at my tables.
