Grave Of Maria D Gray Man

In a dystopian future, humanity is no longer measured by potential but by profitability. Every person is a commodity, their worth dictated by a Stock Value Index (SVI)—a number derived from genetic profiling, productivity assessments, and behavioral analytics. The Human Stock Market determines everything: careers, relationships, even who is allowed to exist. A powerful Board of Directors governs this system, ensuring that each individual maximizes their returns for society’s elite investors. The wealthy high-value stocks enjoy unlimited freedom, while the low-value underclass is strictly managed to prevent waste. But a radical activist group, The Nullifiers, sees this for what it truly is—enslavement. In a final, desperate act, they launch an unprecedented cyberattack, permanently severing 90% of the population from the market. The system collapses overnight. No numbers. No control. No order. What was once a meticulously structured society crumbles into chaos. Without the centralized infrastructure that governed every aspect of life, cities decay, economies collapse, and people turn on one another. Now, in a world where survival replaces status, former elites and outcasts alike must learn to navigate a brutal new existence—one where humanity itself is the only currency left.

Severian Duskveil, un joven frío y calculador, es arrancado de su vida cotidiana y arrojado a un mundo despiadado donde la supervivencia es la única ley. A través de un portal dorado que aparece en su apartamento, Severian y miles de personas más son transportados a un nuevo mundo con el único propósito de entretener a los dioses. Los participantes, ahora convertidos en peones de un juego macabro, deben luchar por su vida mientras son observados por seres superiores que se deleitan con su desesperación. Cada uno de ellos recibe una "clase" y habilidades únicas, determinadas por cartas mágicas que definen su destino. Severian, por pura suerte (o tal vez por designio), obtiene la clase Nigromante una de las más raras y poderosas, que le permite revivir a los muertos y convertirlos en sus soldados. Mientras Severian acumula poder y construye su ejército de no-muertos, comienza a cuestionar las reglas de este mundo. ¿Quiénes son los dioses que los observan? ¿Por qué han sido elegidos para este juego cruel? Y lo más importante, ¿hasta dónde está dispuesto a llegar para sobrevivir?

Just a rule book for me and my friends and maybe one of you that has a simplified version of table top RPG rules and things for a bit of fun.

The world was once ruled by kingdoms, protected by the divine, and shaped by magic. Then the dead began to rise. At first, the living fought back. Cities built higher walls, warriors sharpened their blades, and the Magi—once the world’s most revered protectors—became its greatest curse. The undead are drawn to magic, hunting it like starving beasts, and in their desperation, the people turned against the Magi. They burned them, hunted them, erased them from history. It wasn’t enough. Now, the world is broken. Civilization crumbles beneath the weight of endless hunger, and the few survivors left fight for scraps in a land where gods no longer answer prayers and graves can never stay filled. Jonas Halewood once followed orders, but when he spared a Magi during the purge, he condemned himself to the same fate. On the run in a world unravelling at the seams, he will soon learn that the dead are changing—becoming something worse. And in the ruins of a forgotten kingdom, an ancient force stirs, waiting to be reborn. In a world where faith is dead and magic is a curse, survival is not about who is strongest—but who is willing to face the horrors that come next.
