A fantasy world "seventy-five years later," Magipunk is a game-setting for those who want to marry traditional fantasy with the cyber/steam/whatever-punk genres. It is a world in the throes of a painful change as a magic-based industrial revolution shakes society to its core.

Magipunk is not tied to any one system at present. However, in a few cases, pseudo-game mechanics are included in the text of the project, in order to explain ideas to a level of specificity needed for conversion into a viable RPG setting.

Project Notes

I (Mike "Epoch" Sullivan) initially conceived Magipunk as a project that would take input from a variety of people, but of which I would ultimately retain editorial control. I think that kind of approach has a lot of merit to it, but it does tie everything to me, and it's clear that I haven't made a lot of forward progress in the recent months. As such, that philosophy is officially out the window. If you want to add something, this is a wiki, go ahead.

I created a little navigation template to help tie the project pages together. It can be found at Template:Magipunk_Template, and can be included in any new pages you create by using the syntax: {{Magipunk_Template}} right at the top of the page (just copy and paste the bold text to the very top of your new page, and the navigation menu will show up. I promise).

Pages in this project should have their titles of the form Magipunk:Whatever, where Whatever is what the page is about.
