Character Compendium
A roleplaying reference for the Heavy Gear setting, this book profiles ten groups across Terra Nova, detailing their histories, agendas, and relationships. Each faction can serve as an ally, enemy, contact, or other influence in an ongoing campaign, with stories that can be used as standalone encounters or integrated into existing plots. The book also examines important figures in TN 1933, along with the wider alliances and conflicts shaping the planet beyond individual regional sourcebooks.
