Numenera

Numenera Destiny opens a new and exhilarating chapter of the Numenera roleplaying game, with everything you need to help lift the Ninth World into a brighter future:

• Elegant rules for entirely new modes of play, letting players create and expand their world over the course of whole campaigns.
• Robust salvaging and crafting rules that let characters convert the remnants of the prior worlds into beneficial technologies for exploring or furthering their communities.
• Vehicles, artifacts, structures, and other numenera objects to discover or build.
• New character types, descriptors, and foci: the Arkus who adeptly leads, the Delve who excels at exploration, and the Wright who crafts installations, artifacts, vehicles, and weapons.
• Creatures, cyphers, and artifacts that build on the theme of destiny.
• Four complete adventures themed around Ninth World communities, plus a giant poster map.

Numenera Destiny is one of two corebooks. You need Numenera Discovery to play; it includes character generation, all the basic game rules, and detailed information on the Ninth World.
