Description

From publisher blurb:

A world of pulp-adventure on a strange and alien planet awaits!

Welcome to Nemesis, a strange world of psionic creatures, ancient mysteries, and, above all, adventure! A tidally-locked world beneath a never-setting blood-red sun, Nemesis is a world of weird and wonderful creatures, home to Humans after a crash landing over 3,000 years in the past. Inspired by a long list of literary works from Burroughs to McCaffery, Under a Blood-Red Sun is a planetary romance pulp adventure setting based on my own OSR-adjacent/NSR ruleset Less is More. Inspired by The Black Hack and Knave, the system itself is a d20 roll-under system based on the classic 6 attributes but using a freeform trait system instead of classes and species.

What Can I Do?
There are ancient human outposts to uncover and sweet Earth-Tech to find!
Earn the sponsorship of an Immortal, the genetically and cybernetically enhanced ruling caste!
Try to stay one step ahead of the skyknights, enhanced soldiers riding psionic dragons and doing their Immortal master's bidding!
