This is a
time of awakening, a time of discovery, a time of newfound
wisdom, a time of alliances, and a time of freedom.
This is a time of darkness, a time of horror, a time of paranoia,
a time of war, and a time of isolation.
Welcome to Alternity, TSR's science-fiction role-playing game. Although future settings are not all that this system can handle, it is the basis for the campaign that I have been running. This document is intended to give the players and spectators both a basic idea of the section of the galaxy that the story will take place in. It will give a rundown of the major political and military powers, some of the planets and systems in the area, aliens that may be encountered, and a timeline to show where this fits in with what is happening the real world of today. Arguably, this document is very human-biased, but that is the intent. I really doubt that any reader can understand an alien's thought patterns and emotional motivations as well as he can a human's. So read on and enjoy, it will help you make the most of the Alternity campaign that I will call:
