A PbP game of C°ntinuum: Roleplaying in The Yet using GURPS 4th Edition, run by Daxian. It follows the exploits of a group of novice Spanners as they navigate the intricacies of time travel, paradox management, and the hidden wars that shape the timeline.
Overview[edit]
Set in a reality much like our own, but viewed through the lens of Continuum's unique cosmology, the campaign explores the fragile structure of spacetime. Players assume the roles of Spanners — individuals gifted with the ability to travel through time — tasked with preserving the stability of the Yet (the future yet to come) while uncovering secrets both ancient and yet-to-be.
Setting[edit]
The primary "corner" (safehouse and social hub) for the characters is located in Milwaukee, WI circa 1999-2010. However, the nature of spanning means adventures take the characters across centuries, continents, and other interesting places.
Key locations include:
- The Corner: A hidden community of Spanners operated under strict protocols to prevent paradoxes.
Major Factions[edit]
The Continuum[edit]
The primary society of responsible Spanners, devoted to maintaining the Yet and preventing catastrophic paradoxes.
The Narcissists[edit]
Rogue Spanners who reject Continuum doctrine, often pursuing personal power and rewriting their own histories at devastating cost.
Other Groups[edit]
TBD
