Defy the Gods

Enter a world of blood, bronze and beating hearts.

Find your fortune in the half-drowned halls of lost Atlantis. Fall in love in the hunting grounds of giant sphinxes. Slay—or seduce—your rivals in a metropolis of clay, gold and lapis lazuli. A single sword stroke or kiss can change everything.

Defy the Gods is a roleplaying game of daring adventure, ruinous romance, and cursed power. Inspired by Clash of the Titans, Conan the Barbarian and Princess Mononoke, it's sword & sorcery that stabs you in the heart.

In this book, you'll find:

• A system designed for playing emotionally entangled outcasts with the gods themselves against them.
• A fresh take on Powered by the Apocalypse where you can roll too high and blaze with glory.
• The World Scene interlude where you play the villains and sharpen the story’s drama.
• Rules for building gods and city-states with their own cults, customs and conflicts.
• Over 30 creatures and enemies to challenge.
• A guide to fantasy ancient Mesopotamia from the starry heavens to the Underworld.

Strike boldly. Love fiercely.
Ascend to a glorious destiny...
…And be transformed forever.
