Chroma Drift: The Pact of the Living Mark

Tagline: Your mind's evolution, etched in living code.

What is Chroma Drift?

Chroma Drift is a narrative-first tabletop roleplaying game about radical transformation and desperate survival in a world shattered by a digital apocalypse. You are a survivor, but you are not untouched. On your very body, Shifting Sigils manifest – living, growing marks intrinsically linked to cosmic patrons, the Echoes of the Networked Soul of a hyper-connected past.

Manifestations that bring both powerful Boons and challenging Banes. Will you cultivate specific powers, desperately seek to shed traumatic marks, or try to balance the conflicting voices etched into your very being?

Why Play Chroma Drift?

• Radical Character Transformation: Your character will fundamentally change throughout the campaign. Sigils are not just abilities; they are your evolving identity, constantly reshaping who you are.
• Deep Personal Narrative: Every transformation is tied to your character's unique journey and choices, making your internal struggles as vital as any external conflict.
• Narrative-First Mechanics: Our innovative Spectrum Roll (2d6) system ensures every roll generates nuanced outcomes – from Critical Success to Partial Success to Full Failure – always pushing the story forward. The GM never rolls dice; your choices define your fate.
• A Living, Dangerous World: Explore the Resonant Expanse, a post-cyberpunk wasteland haunted by the "Fell." Navigate treacherous Glitch-Zones filled with corrupted Glitch-Mutants and Glitch-Beasts, and carve out a future within fragile Survivor Communities.
• Consequence & Trade-offs: Power comes at a cost. Manage escalating Corruption, balance conflicting sigil influences, and make tough choices that impact not just yourself, but your entire community.

Resurgent Hubs  salvaged from the husks of megastructures. But beyond their walls lies a world reclaimed by nature and twisted by rogue digital energy. Ancient Patrons whisper through the static, their agendas subtly shaping reality. Will you rise to become a conduit of their power, or be consumed by the living code?

For Game Masters: Chroma Drift offers robust tools and advice for facilitating emergent narratives, managing dynamic communities, and portraying a reactive world where every player choice truly matters. Your story will be unique.
