Steam and Steel

This role-playing supplement presents an alternate Victorian setting shaped by steam power, steel machines, biological science, and metaphysical forces. The Royal Society’s Steam Knights oppose the Vril, serpent-like sorcerers from the Hollow Earth, alongside conspiracies involving the Illuminati, Freemasons, and other secret societies. It includes historical and fictional character profiles, campaign ideas, blood magic rules, organization rules, a Steampunk Computer skill, and a Gadgeteer stunt tree. Fate Core and Mecha vs. Kaiju rules cover steam-powered extras, vehicles, mecha, and their customization.
