CyberBlood TTRPG Core Rules

CyberBlood bubbles beneath the surface...

CyberBlood is a cyberpunk tabletop role-playing game based on 80s and 90s anime, science fiction, and action films. CyberBlood seeks to do away with bloated rule sets, cumbersome item management, and excessive calculations. 

CyberBlood puts roleplay and action first!

Set in the late 2040s, the world of CyberBlood's megacities, weak governments, and corrupt corporations struggle for control of a growing population trying to make it by. Paramilitary groups fight against terrorists, organized criminal syndicates, and rogue drones. Outside the safety of the megacity limits mutants and wildlife run amok while scientists conduct dangerous experiments. Take your party of mercenaries, thieves, freedom fighters, or thugs to win your fortune and leave your mark on the world of Cyberblood.

No Experience Points - No Leveling

CyberBlood is all about the here and now. Much like the ultra-maximalist setting, the system doesn’t force the player to wait for things on the horizon.

Players will never be counting experience points until they unlock their next damage buff or heroic feat.

Because there are no levels, the strength of characters is only limited by their access to equipment and their base attribute scores. CyberBlood characters can easily slot into an ongoing game without disrupting the GM’s flow or the difficulty of combat encounters.

In CyberBlood, strategy and teamwork are more important than endless second chances and unlockable abilities.

Combat Matters

Combat in CyberBlood uses strict, but intuitive rules that govern a wide-variety of situations and use-cases.
Following this core principle: Combat is Simple, Brutal, and Chaotic.
