Neocropolis 

(Note on pronunciation: ne o crop ol lis.)

Cyberpunk urban sprawl in year 2055. (30 years in the future)

The main characters begin in Squalor Row, a poor and rundown sector of Neocropolis. 

Neocropolis is governed by corporate oligarchy ruled by CEO Ross Novak.  

Mutation of animal, plant, and even human life is not uncommon thanks to deregulation of environmental and pollution laws. The corporations make the laws. Democracy is dead. 

This is the world in which the story is set.

Game Rules 

3 attributes are STRENGTH, DEXTERITY, and WILL. Roll 1d4 - 1d4 giving a result of 0-3 for each attribute. 

To make a move, roll 2d6. Use PBTA rule. 7-9 is a success with a complication. 

Ace In The Hole rule. If one die rolled is a 6 on your move, you may choose to fail your move and keep the 6 as an Ace In The Hole to use in a future move that fails. Replace the lowest die with the Ace 6 making the move at least a success with a complication. You may only have one Ace In The Hole at a time. 

When creating a solo character or you have a small group of players, you automatically have one friendly npc, a helpful buddy.
