Thank You & Coming Soon

One more big THANK YOU from me for backing Dystopian Dawn.

An unplanned happu surprise happened since the last update.

I was invited to run a game at an online convention, so I tossed some notes together for a mystery adventure. It ended up being so much fun, I typed & formatted the whole thing. Then I drew the pregen characters. The pdf is on my site now (5$) and I've sent for a print to check it out.

"Haunting of Crab Cove" is a tongue in cheek mystery along the lines of 1970s cartoons.

A new video and landing page are in the works for the next campaign. It will include:
  • Vikings & Robots
  • Deathrace Coast to Coast
  • Compendium Vol 1
  • Creature Catalog Vol 1
  • Who in the Dawn?!

I'll update withing the next week or so with the new page & video.

Dystopian Dawn - WHAT'S NEXT?

This is a long one - apologies for the TLDR crowd!

UP NEXT - PHASE 1

Phase 1 completion is the next Dystopian Dawn campaign. This is a BIG ONE! 
This wraps up all books centered around the "known world" (the remains of North America).
FIVE new books are scheduled for this year! Yes...FIVE!!!

I'm working on the video with plans to release it later this month, then the pre-launch page, and I intend to launch the BackerKit campaign by mid-June or early July.

FIVE BOOKS YOU SAY?! WHAT ARE THEY??

"Vikings & Robots!"

The 5th Source Adventure book for North America. War! Secrets of the Fae! Secret Labs! Renegade Robots! Submarines! Airships! Jetpacks! And so very much more.
  • Can your players uncover all of the plots and find a way to stop the war...or join in...or play all sides!
  • Summerica and Alamex are planning a new long-range ocean trading route along the western and southern coasts. New Rome is not happy about being cut out.
  • New Rome is building secret Submarines and Airships to establish dominance!
  • A strange group of saboteurs with weird abilities is working to stop the war - or will they only make it worse?
  • A group of exotic hunters are stalking mystic creatures...and the Fae! Will you join the hunt or stop them?
  • Summerica is building ships large enough to travel the open seas - where will this lead?
  • Finally! The history of the Faerie Folk! The secret city of the Fae. Why they came. Why they're still here. 
  • Elves are trying to open a mystic portal back to their home realm. Will it work? What happens to Magic if it does?
  • Expanded provinces - Roma Prima, Ashtown, and Destiny! Plus new Locations in New Rome and Summerica, new Gear (lots of High-Tech!), new Magic, Mass Combat Rules, and a ton of Lore.

Playtesting is currently in progress via Discord. Jump on in!

"Deathrace Coast to Coast"

The 6th (and final) Source Adventure book for North America.
  • Can you qualify for the greatest and most dangerous cross-country race in the world?!
  • If you do...can you survive it? Great wonders and wealth for the winners!
  • This two-week motor race pits teams against all kinds of threats...and not just from the contestants!
  • Starting in Haven, the route heads north to the tip of Paradisium for the qualifier elimination lap. Then the race begins! 
  • The first leg is south along the Paradisium-New Rome border, then east across Haven, and finally the long stretch along the Haven-Paradisium-Alamex borders!
  • The route is only part of the race! Gain bonus points for kills made from your vehicle! Avoid cannibal tribes! Combat Raiders! Look out for Sand Worms!
  • Put the pedal to the metal and rip through new wasteland locations! 
  • Find out what a Motel is! See the ONLY televised event! Witness drones and cameras! Discover intrigue and spies (or become one!!).
  • Finally! The expanded province of Crashpoint, with all the crazy secrets of the motor city madhouse!!
  • Learn all the secrets of Deathrace and how it ties Haven and Paradisium together!
  • New Locations, New Nationalities (The Raiders!), new Lore, and a ton of new Vehicles and Vehicle Mods! Armor plating, gas canisters, nitro, guns, flame throwers, spear launchers, spike strips, cannons, and MORE!

Playtesting starts in a few months - stay tuned!

"Dystopian Dawn Compendium Vol 1"

  • This is more than a compilation of new rules, character creation options, mutations, nationalities, magic, skills, styles, and gear introduced in the six Source Adventure books.
  • This also includes new options for Mutations, Tech Factor, Currency, and clarification on interesting stuff that popped up during the past two years since launching Dystopian Dawn.
  • This book puts it all in one easy to reference book for GMs & Players - instead of creating a "new edition" Player's Guide.

"Dystopian Dawn Creature Catalog Vol 1"

  • This glorious book will include ALL of the creatures and animals from the Game Master's Guide and all six Source Adventure books in one reference book.
  • It is more than a compilation. It will include expanded information (ecology, history, etc.) on many Creatures, add several more Animals, and new optional Creature Mutation tables.
  • It will also include new artwork and potentially...new creatures!

"Who in the Dawn?!"

  • This handy GM reference book puts ALL of the NPCs (including the Custom Characters created by backers) from all six Source Adventure books under one cover!
  • All of them will be listed by Territory to help you plan your next adventures with a ready host of NPCs from all over the wasteland.

THERE'S MORE!

I'm currently working on new and alternative Character Reference Sheets. This campaign will see them first!
Multiple variants including blank spaces for your own artwork, outline character figures providing a base guide for your to draw over, and more.

I am also working with some programmer buds to create a Dystopian Dawn Character Creator tool. Backers will be the first to Beta test it!

NEW INCENTIVES!

  • The CUSTOM NPC pledge remains a favorite, so it stays!
  • I'm opening a pledge to create a CUSTOM CREATURE. You'll concoct a crazy idea, I'll do the mechanics, and we'll commission an artist to draw it!
  • I'm also working with artists to offer you a CUSTOM PLAYER CHARACTER pledge - you'd work with me to roll up YOUR character and then we commission the artist of your choice to bring it to life!

Stay Tuned! Join the Dystopian Distro mailing list from the Fractured Brain Studios website!

We're just getting started! 2026 will see Dystopian Dawn in SPACE and Dystopian Dawn in mega FANTASY settings! Two new world books and a bunch of adventure books are planned for next year!

Dystopian Mythos! & Dystopian Space!
