The world of Glimpse the Beyond is very much like the real world on the surface. Countries, politics, major religions and popular culture are virtually indistinguishable from the world outside your window. Beneath the normal facade of daily life, lurking in the shadows and hiding under the cover of night, dark forces reach into the world trying desperately to get a foothold. Most humans never encounter these dark forces. Of those few that do, the majority are driven mad.
Glimpse the Beyond is a Role-Playing Game in which players assume the roles of Magi, rare individuals who study the arcane arts in an attempt to understand and possibly control that which Should Not Be.
The Glimpse the Beyond Second Edition Alpha Slice is an extremely early look at the basic mechanics we are developing for Glimpse the Beyond Second Edition. The rules included in this document cover the very basics of character creation, Ability scores, Skills, Physical Combat and Social Combat. In the coming weeks we will expand these systems to include Magick, Supernatural Creatures, more detailed Equipment, Boons, Flaws and additional system materials to be determined.
The function of this Alpha Slice is to see if the basic engine runs, and where it needs a tune up. PLEASE send us any and all feedback to the email address included in the .pdf with “Glimpse the Beyond Second Edition” in the subject line.
Glimpse the Beyond Second Edition Alpha Slice was developed by Travis Legge.
