​London 20 Dec 2016 - Modiphius Entertainment is pleased to announce the release of Dark Eden, a brand new source book which explores the fate of earth, the long-abandoned home world of its acclaimed Mutant Chronicles sci-fi diesel-punk universe
 
The Dark Eden Source Book is now available in PDF on Modiphius.net and DriveThruRPG.com
 
The Sins of the Past
 
The Megacorporations created their own version of hell for the remnants of humanity left behind during the Exodus. Clouds of toxins seethed through the atmosphere. Nuclear fires seared the earth. The very ground shook in torment and anger.
 
Earth was abandoned by the best and brightest of the Megacorporations during their race across the Solar System. Humanity’s cradle had been abandoned and forgotten by all but a few.
 
For Old Earth was gone, or so the Megacorporations believed. Below the toxic clouds and amongst the ruins of civilisation, life somehow prevailed in the face of the mutagens, toxins, and terraforming agents that surged across the planet’s surface. Changed. Mutated. Born of a fiery genesis. Old Earth had become Dark Eden. This source book covers Dark Eden, the world once known as Earth. Designed to be used on its own, it will also perfectly supplement the Dark Eden Campaign.
 
• The Megabody Campaign: A globe spanning search for a secret that threatens the very existence of Luna City.
 
• The Survivors: The tribes of Dark Eden. A detailed background of twisted descendants of humanity: the
Crescentians, Lutheran Triad, Sons of Rasputin, Templars, and others.
 
• New World, New Dangers: Details of Dark Eden’s lethal fauna and flora, from the colossal Eclipsian War Mammoths to the deadly Silver Pools.
 
• A Changed World: Comprehensive information on the various locations in the world of Dark Eden, plus story hooks for adventures.
 
Look out for more releases from the Mutant Chronicles universe coming soon. For the latest information visit the Mutant Chronicles page on Modiphius.com or join the community on the dedicated Mutant Chronicles Facebook page.

Assignments are still open for Captains and Officers to take their place aboard the bridge and make Star Trek gaming history. Further, local game shops organizing an in-store playtest group will receive starbase status with pre-order promotions for the game’s retail release. Fans attending Dragonmeet in London on Saturday will have the final chance to receive a free Captain Kirk or Captain Picard figure when they sign up for the Star Trek Adventures playtest.
