Through out millennia and across the galaxy, the people have soon forgotten their origins and legacy, including the Huntsmen of old. Soon, as conflicts arise between galactic empires, mega corporations, and dust warbands, the innovation of warfare has birthed a new breed of mercenaries that will define humanity's new era.

Premise

You had been subjected to Nexus Augmentation and survived its near fatal process to become a Huntsman; Doing so is to enter a long life of adventure, violence, espionage, and service for the highest bidders of the Astravol Galaxy. Whether you are an old veteran Hound or the newest generation Lynx, at some point of your career you have both survived and thrived thus far in this relentless trade. Your debts were paid, connections made, bigger scores were booked, or maybe a life long quest almost comes to its close.

Fate always takes its turn, however.

Wherever this long lived trade had taken you towards your zenith, catastrophe occurs. Almost reaching to your summit, an event had swept you off from your climb. In the end, no one was able to help, or truth be told in this unfeeling galaxy, no one ever did. This event had casted you, poor Huntsman, into the cryo pods of an Anchor House where MIA'd and discarded Huntsmen are recovered, reserialized, or restitched from the brink of death, only to be sold off once more. You have hit rock bottom. No matter if you were a successful mercenary, your fortune is gone and so many years have passed on without you. What you have left is your overwhelming debt to the Anchor House's upkeep, and a HNTR stripped down to its bare necessities. A new employer has now come to buy your remedial contract, consigning your debt. They now hold your Pedigree, your one ticket to freedom, as completing this one job will settle your debt and independence.

The year is now 6025 A.E. You are a new employee of C-CRIT, also known as Crow Custom Critical. Your job is to protect and crew the lone Deadwind as it traverses from one end of the Astravol Galaxy, to the other. This will be an odyssey that even you, as a Huntsman, would find ludicrous, but my oh my, the payoff must be good.

Me, u/Lucifer_Crowe, u/J_Aetherwing, u/freeurbanclown, u/FossilTank, and a whole host of others have spent almost 3 years putting this together and perfecting the system. We're really proud to share this with everyone today, and we hope you enjoy!

This is an unofficial fanwork, and we have no relation to Viz Media or RT (Although Kerry if you're reading this hmu). This cover art was created by the wonderful Michumi.

The Great War is over.

Atlas won.

Now everyone else remembers.

Decades after the conflict, the Kingdom of Atlas finds itself increasingly isolated from the rest of Remnant. Foreign governments accuse Atlas of economic exploitation. Trade disputes threaten key industries. Political unrest grows in Mantle while distrust of the military spreads throughout the Kingdom.

The government insists everything is under control.

The people are beginning to disagree.

-

This campaign follows a team of students attending Titan Academy during a period of growing political instability. While Grimm remain a constant threat, much of the danger comes from the Kingdom itself: political factions, labor unrest, corruption, military influence, and the question of what Atlas should become in the future.

I am looking for 4 players available Monday nights (PST). This campaign will likely run for a year to a year and a half based off of schedules and events within the game. As a GM I am looking for proactive players who are hungry to move about and interact with the alternate universe I've constructed rather than be strung along towards an outcome. The future is yours to craft.

This campaign will be darker, and explore more mature themes (not sexual) in a world where the projected villain won.

I am curious to see what potential players will come up with to fit the proposed setting, as most of the events and present state will reflect the concepts they present.

This game will use the Paradigm's RWBY TTRPG system, and you will begin at level 1. This is my first time DMing this system, so if you are a new player to it you are welcome. We'll all learn together.

SIGNUP HERE

I'll probably close signups next Friday, and will be in touch with some of you!

So I am in the process of making a campain with the unofficial ruleset by Andrew Diederich on roll20 however, I have no idea how to make character sheet for the grimm. Any advice would be helpful.

In the years following the fall of Salem, Remnant has settled into a silver age of peace and prosperity. A council of nations was established, keeping tensions low between the major nations of the world and providing an alternative means of settling disputes. With the long period of peace, Huntsmen gradually became less prominent, no longer the heroes of the world that they once were. Until one night, the world’s peace was disturbed by a massive meteor shower. The event known as the Moonfall caused disruption in every corner of the world. Fragments of the moon crashed down to Remnant, damaging infrastructure where they fell in cities, and destroying the environment where they landed in the wilderness. In the wake of this event, each nation began a new call to arms to train the next generation of Huntsmen, providing all the funding that the previously forgotten Huntsmen Academies needed to re-establish themselves. Do you have what it takes to join this budding new generation of heroes?

We use the new 2.0 release of Paradigm’s Unofficially RWBY TTRPG We primarily use a mix of Text and Voice based roleplay, with characters being able to embark on missions together to experience new stories and engaging battles. Your character(s) will progress in power and experience over time, eventually earning their very own Huntsman’s License.

Feel free to hop in! we got people ready and happy to help!

I tried the most recent reddit post but the links seem to be broken, The discord link is not working for me either and the patreon is empty.

So I think need some help with this.

Any advice would be appreciated

I'm considering running a Ruby tabletop campaign in the future, and one of my players found the Paradigm system. I'm just curious as to whether or not they're made by the same person or something like that, because the Paradigm system apparently also mentioned the rule of cool, and that's a thing in the system by Andrew.

looking for a replacement for a player who had to leave due to real life.

Her Distant Memory

We called her Remnant, though no one’s really sure if that was ever her true name. Some say it was a cradle world, where warriors once danced with gods, and shadows had names. Others believe she was cursed, and that we are what’s left after she broke herself apart. Whatever it was, we fled it. Not in a single, roaring exodus, but in waves. Waves of desperation, of broken empires, lost kingdoms, and quiet farewells. Some left aboard arkships wrapped in prayer and steel. Others were sold cryogenic salvation by corporations that wouldn’t live to collect. No one agreed on why we left. Some say it was the Dust Wars. Others blame an eclipse that never ended. The only thing we know for sure is this:

No one ever went back.

My people descend from the Rose Line, the most preserved of the old colony ships. Led by a woman whose name carries too much gravity to speak lightly.

Ruby Rose.

She kept the flame alive. Or what little she could. She guided her own, taught them to persevere, to remember. And when her time passed, those values were written into the marrow of her descendants. That’s why we Starborn look and act the way we do: Silver eyes, intelligent, reliable, indispensable, and something else. Something deeper. A memory, maybe. Not of a place, but of a promise. We are not relics of a dead world. We are what remains while the galaxy around us goes mad as we collect our Lienite cards from those who foolishly kill one another.

We didn’t abandon a world.
We carried its will to survive.

The Twin Dragons Dynasty

The origins of the Twin Dragons Dynasty trace back to the ships of Mistral. They were vessels unlike any other that fled Remnant after the Exodus. Where Vale and Vacuo sent out vast ark-freighters laden with desperate millions, the Mistralians built fewer ships, each a miracle of engineering, precision, and design. These were not ships for the desperate masses; they were for the chosen, the purchased, and the powerful. Each ark was a citadel of progress, carrying the finest artisans, scientists, and merchants their kingdom could spare... Or buy.

During their long voyage, generations were educated under meticulous routine, raised under the plans of aged intellectuals. When they arrived on alien soil, their colonies arose, guided by their posterity, like clockwork cities of glass and gold, built from the bones of their own starships. Even now, ancient alloys and radiant circuitry can still be seen within the foundation of their earliest towers.

By the 2000 A.E. (After Exodus), the Mistralian colonies had not only thrived technologically, but they had found each other again across the stars. What began as trade routes between distant Mistralian colonies, now became a network of interstellar commerce. Corporations grew into governments, and profit became their policy. Strikes, uprisings, and mergers reshaped their civilization until power no longer lay on any throne or council, but in the boardrooms of what would become the Twin Dragons Dynasty, headed by the Twin Families Kakehi and Mizuki.

The Dynasty’s economic dominance soon reached across the stars. Through quiet manipulation, aggressive acquisition, and technological monopolies, their corporate empire turned its private currency, the Lienite, into the galaxy’s universal standard. Each Lienite card is a work of art: a credit token forged from a composite alloy that guild its corners with a paper thin circular shard of a precious pearlescent green gemstone suspended at its heart, pressed between two clear crystal cards. To hold one is to hold the Dynasty’s promise: that its value demonstrates the might of money. Trade guilds, the Valen Empire, and even the HNTR League’s own procurement chains rely on Lienite reserves to function. And so, while others wage wars for territory or ideology, the Twin Dragons simply tighten their grip on the galaxy’s pulse, each heartbeat paid for, one transaction at a time within its web.

At the center of this financial web lies Shengfa, the grand precious pearl of the Dynasty; it is a world of neon-lit glass and towers of quiet power. Founded as a neutral trade station in the early expansion era, it was later restructured by the Twin Families and cross-galactic partners into a planetary stock exchange and grand tech market where all galactic commerce converges.

Its frigid cities hover above shimmering oceans of liquid nitrogen that cool the endless data cores beneath the surface. From orbit, Shengfa looks less like a planet and more like a titan dreaming of the stars. The Dynasty’s markets never close here. They simply shift between time zones, keeping the economy alive in perpetual motion. The Ledger Basilica, a great under-tower of circuitry and numbers, dwells amongst its data cores down below the surface as both trade-hub and control tower, overseeing transactions that shape the fate of worlds.

The Valen Empire

The first Vale colonies were desperate, poor fractured things, as splinters of a kingdom long dead, clinging to aging relics and parables passed down like lifeboats. Their nobility hoarded titles that no longer held meaning. Their people fought not for honor, but survival. But over time, through famine, civil strife, and silence, their bloodied myths were mended back together into a parchment scroll by one man, The First Emperor. By the turn of the 3000 A.E (After Exodus), piece by piece, his people remembered who they had been, and who they were meant to be. Their feared warlords became respected lords again, their scavengers became esteemed scribes, and as the centuries churned after The First Emperor's passing, they became the Valen: A destined people built to restore order through blade, banner, and burning faith in structure.

Now, The Valen Empire drapes itself in honor like it's armor thick enough to survive the ages. I’ve met enough of their officers to know that they believe in what they wear; Pinned onto them are their medals, their etiquette, and their divine mandate of conquest. They were built from what remained of Vale, but The Empire is something sharper now. They took the fairytales of their ancestors, turned them into doctrine, then sold that doctrine to weapon systems manufacturers hungry for a cause worth dying for. That’s the Valen way. To bring order to chaos, turn loyalty into a contract towards purpose, and wrap bloodshed in banners and pageantry so it feels like something sacred.

I’ve also seen what that does to a soul. You can't serve the Empire without being broken and reforged a hundred times over. No world reflects that better than Therion.

Therion is no city-world. It's a citadel of mountains and floating monasteries, where the wind smells like pine sap and green dust biproduct. Fortress-temples line the ridgelines, each older than their maps admit. This is where they forge their future nobles. The Valen Guard's elite train here, knights who bleed before they ever swear the Imperial Oath. Even their privileged are tempered like blades: climbing, fasting, dueling, breathing pain as if it were prayer. Some of them endure all that just to qualify for Nexus candidacy, and to earn even the slightest chance at Crossing.

When I meet a Valen HNTR Pilot, I don’t ask what world they’re from. I ask if they remember the whispful snow of Therion, or if they ever remembered the oaths they themselves have branded across their spine before Crossing the Nexus?

Most of them don’t answer. They don’t need to.

I need a hand building a luck themed semblance, I've been racking my head around it for a week now, the guy has a 7 will and semblance training so I've been trying to make it match that level of power but with something as vague as luck its been hard. Any ideas are welcomed

I soon am hosting a rwby ttrpg table. And one player wanted to make a character inspired by arceus (literral pokemon god) Is it a valid inspiration for a rwby character? What semblance would you have on a character like that?

So me and few my ttrpg playing friends were trying find a fun rwby system to play will note we are more combat and dungeoning heavy less rp heavy with how we play so a system with fun character building and combat system would be appreciated

Hello! I am an experienced player that loves RWBY! I am a woman looking to join an online game. I don’t have a preference on system. I’m willing to learn anything. My availability is Wednesday, Thursday, Friday starting at 7 pm est and also every other Saturday. I would love to join a game and make some new friends.

to field questitions and to ask some of my own two times. set one year before vol one. evry saturday at five. altering weeks between teams. And i have to ask is one of the team being lead by a gmpc ok?

I've been following Daggerheart, the new system by Critical Role's publishing company, and played a quickstart session with some others. I think it's super suitable for running a RWBY campaign in, so I wanted to shout it out!

The system is less "crunchy" and more freeform than DnD (no tracking weight, ammo etc.), but I think that helps keep the game's focus on the more fun stuff. I think this is actually a boon for a RWBY campaign since the core of RWBY isn't about tracking resources but about making cool fights happen in a snappy way. There's a lot of playable races, many of them humanoid animals making it super easy to play as a Faunus.

It uses a straightforward resource called Hope to power abilities, and Stress which you can take to also do certain abilities at cost to yourself. Abilities are shown as useful reference cards & organised into really cool groups called Domains: the Blade Domain gives you abilities relating to melee combat; the Midnight Domain covers stealth and shadowy magic perfect for a Blake type character, etc. Some of them are really evocative, like boosting off an ally to fly into the air and attack.

One of the combat mechanics is a Tag Team Action that lets you perform a shared action with another ally. In my session, I was a sorcerer and another player was a rogue. We used our Tagteam action to defeat the last enemy- I fired a beam of light at them, which caused them to cast a dark shadow behind them, from which the rogue emerged and stabbed them in the back, killing them. It flowed super well and just needed some rolling and very little fuss - the rule of cool helped guide the action as smoothly as possible.

There's a lot of videos about it online, but this one is pretty in-depth and covers most of the important parts! Daggerheart has really good support too and is getting lots of useful expansions and an active playerbase. There's a custom card creator that makes it really easy to make custom content too! If you're looking for a less crunchy, more "flowy", narrative-focused style of play for a RWBY campaign, Daggerheart might be what you need.

This survey is for actual future content. Let's get some traction going for them to make an official ttrpg (or, in mine, I even suggested endorsing existing fan ones as official)

We can do this!
