Deep beneath the surface of a permanently polluted Earth, a race of augmented post-humans, called Remnants, engage in endless wars for corporate domination. While private security forces carry out the wills of their corpo masters, the heroes on the front lines are Dragoons, mercenary mech pilots with machines as customized as their backgrounds are varied. Their missions will take them up against megacorp experiments on the rampage, ancient enemies from subterranean oceans, and mutated monstrosities from the Twisted Earth above.
In the Beneath Twisted Earth TTRPG, players take on the role of Dragoons, mercenary mech pilots for the contract brokering company known as Dragons' Roost. Having gathered with other allied pilots they have formed a squadron to take on bigger contracts for better pay. Each using a streamlined, yet deep construction system to created almost any mech they can think of. In BTE, the mech is the extension of the pilot, and customization is the key to expression. In addition game masters will find a wealth of tools to help them build a rewarding campaign that emphasizes player agency while still allowing for GM fine tuning of the setting and overarching narrative. Built upon Cloudshore Games' Vibe System, BTE utilizes a standard polyhedral dice set. The core mechanic relies upon players rolling percentile dice or 2d10 to try to roll below the target score, usually one of their attributes or skills.
