What is Dystopia 23 The Razors Edge?

Survival in a big brother-esque urban jungle utilising the tremendous skills of yourself and your team, boosted by human enhancement technologies in order to overcome evil, psychopathic megacorporations, organised crime, terrorism and corrupt governments.

Two hundred years in the future… a monolithic economic collapse… mass worldwide poverty and corruption… malevolent mega corporations… an epic struggle for survival… are you ready to walk the Razor’s Edge.

Dystopia 23 is a role-playing game, no not one of those stupid ones and zeros computer role-playing games, a real one where you use dice and meet together with your friends. Rather than playing Xbox or sitting on your arse watching TV you get to leave your house (adventurous) and overthrow belligerent megacorporations while dealing death to the deserving mongrels who succour leech suck

You play a small team of freelancers: specialists who make their living by doing jobs, which are often of questionable legality, for clients who are often unidentified. Dystopia 23 is about survival in a big brother-esque urban jungle utilising the tremendous skills of yourself and your team, boosted by human enhancement technologies in order to overcome evil, psychopathic megacorporations, organised crime, terrorism and corrupt governments. Characters may be highly skilled hackers or covert operatives, they might be con artists, vehicle specialists, or masters of war. Some are boosted by cybernetic or biological implants which enhance their capabilities beyond normal human standards. There are countless types of opportunities in the tough modern world of the 23rd century. You may be involved in rescuing hostages, breaking into corporate facilities to sabotage or steal information, covertly shadowing targets to find out what they are up to, wiping out gangbangers, mobsters or corporate kill teams… The possibilities are endless. The modern world is a dangerous place, an economic collapse in the early part of the 21st century led to the breakdown of governments, mass worldwide poverty and corruption and the rise of the malevolent mega corporations. Only the strong survive when they walk the razor’s edge.

I have gazed into the ones and zeros of the Nexus. The inescapable beauty of the digital beast. But life exists in the spaces between.

How will I be remembered? Did I build great edifices reaching to the sky? Did I feed the hungry and lay tyranny down low? All of these are dreams in the star scape. I brought the sword and nothing more.

In the effervescent glow of the Nexus I have seen the past, present and future unfold before my eyes.

“Cyberspace. A consensual hallucination experienced daily by billions of legitimate operators… A graphic representation of data abstracted from banks of every computer in the human system. Unthinkable complexity. Lines of light ranged in the nonspace of the mind, clusters and constellations of data. Like city lights, receding…”
― William Gibson, Neuromancer

He looked across the blistered skyline through a cloud of fog. Out there was the worst that humanity had to offer: vicious gangers, malevolent syndicate men and the worst of all, grinning mega-corpers who would burn you alive and sell your children into slavery just to cut the next deal.

“Alice in Wonderland, Alice down the rabbit hole, Alice out in Cyberspace, flung along the lines of data, flying across fields of light, the night cities that live only behind her eyes.”
― Melissa Scott, Trouble and Her Friends

The world has lied. It is full of destitute promises. The American dream has become a nightmare.

“The Machinery of Justice will not serve you here – it is slow and cold, and it is theirs, hardware and soft.”

Things I Should Have Learned by Now, Volume II
― Richard K. Morgan

When you draw a line in the silicone sand you have to pick a side.

“The more technologically advanced the human species got, the more isolated they seemed to become… humans could spend entire lifetimes engaged in all kinds of activities, without getting any closer to knowing who they really were, inside.”
― Jess C. Scott, The Other Side of Life

I don’t have enough bullets to slay the world. But I have enough to give everyone in this room a prolonged dirt nap.

“Only the little people suffer at the hands of Justice; the creatures of power slide from under it with a wink and a grin. If you want justice, you will have to claw it from them.”

Things I Should Have Learned by Now, Volume II
― Richard K. Morgan

“…The freedom to unbind yourself from all those paths that have been constructed for you by society and find your own way through the obstacles. The freedom to write your own physics, accepting nobody’s rules of gravity and space but your own.”
― Sam A. Patel, Data Runner

“It was true. Nothing was ever lost. And nothing was ever forgotten, no matter how painful. The city was like a heart that way. She had four chambers, too. She had arteries that led in and out. She kept things moving.”

― Jason Heller, Cyber World: Tales of Humanity’s Tomorrow
