Aether Core Book

A 160-page core rulebook for a universal role-playing system. It includes rules for character creation, skills, combat, equipment, and other aspects of play, with most skills and equipment suited to modern settings while remaining adaptable to any era, technology level, or genre. A setting-creation chapter helps Narrators build custom worlds and includes a random setting generator. The book also presents Wellstone City, a modern fictional city with its history, locations, organizations, plot hooks, and a 21-page introductory adventure that can be used as a one-shot or incorporated into an ongoing campaign.
