Variant Earth 13

Variant Earth 13 is (ultimately to be) a grouping of original campaign settings, which can be used in an interrelated fashion or all by themselves. The idea is to provide this material in support of the various customized rule systems provided on Technohol 13, either to be used directly by would-be game Judges, Narrators, Gamemasters, Plotters, or whatever - or to simply serve as example characters and groups when building their own.

From the past to the future, from earth to beyond, Variant Earth 13 will encompass a number of settings and situations, each supporting at least one part of the custom character rules presented on the site. The ancient past setting will reference magical rules, whilst the far future one will heavily work with high tech goodness - and the modern day, heroic setting will include almost everything seen on the site!

This will take some time to manifest, however. You see, this is a drastic modification from the existing Variant Earth 13 materials. Originally this was just a repository for my online e mail game. Since that has died a slow and horrible death, I'll be repurposing some of my creations for the 'modern age' setting, while working to use the rest in different spots as much as is possible (or sensible).

So for the time being, just think of the 'modern day' campaign to be the one that's in progress at the moment. And for that, the following material has been made available thus far:

The Agency 13 Database: here you can find information on the various individuals, teams, and of course, secret societies that make Variant Earth 13, well, Variant Earth 13. Taken directly from the files of Agency 13, these descriptions of the various covert entities are as accurate as is possible, though investigator biases may often discolor the facts somewhat...

Tales from Variant Earth 13: within this section of the v13 page you will find various stories based on characters from the v13 world. As of this writing, all of them are by me, of course, but if anybody wishes to write about their favorite player character, I'll also post those stores in this area as well. Also holds a link to the online v13 'comic'...
