Dragons. Magic wands. Singing swords and flying carpets. And above all—heroes!

What fantasy worlds inspire you? The classic high fantasy of Tolkien, Zelazny, or Jordan? Modern fantasy like Harry Potter, The Dresden Files, or Buffy the Vampire Slayer? The whimsy of Discworld or The Dark Crystal? Wuxia, swords and sorcery, or gritty, low-magic settings?

Fantasy—tales of heroes, monsters, and magic—is arguably the oldest genre of human fiction. It’s also the genre that inspired us to step into imaginary worlds through roleplaying games. Godforsaken takes the Cypher System on a deep dive into the infinite variety of fantasy realms, with rules, character options, gear, and a complete, ready-to-use setting that makes the most of the genre.
