City of Zeroes

City of Zeroes is a game about super-powered people. But the players are not super-powered. They are just trying to get by as these powerful people who dominate society.

The setting is one where the first Supers have manifested their powers, and society is learning to make a place for them. The players take the roles of ordinary citizens on the fringes of society making their way in the world. They might be low-level criminals adjusting to the new form of law enforcement, or they may even be actively resisting these newly created super enforcers.

City of Zeroes is set in the near future where are emerging around the world. The players live in the recently resurgent city of New Las Vegas which has gained considerable importance with the establishment of Herotek - a large multinational focused on organising and supporting Supers in their growing industry. They now represent most of the heroes in the western world. Global warming and rising sea levels have also left many of the coastal cities devastated, resulting in a drastic shift of power towards inland cities.

Created from the Forged in the Dark system the game centres on playing a crew of operatives who are willing to risk defying these super people.

The game is inspired by Garth Ennis’ The Boys, Robert Kirkman's Invincible, Marvel and DC Comics and in particular Brandon Sanderson’s Reckoners novels.
