Tenra Bansho Zero

A storytelling roleplaying game set in a far-future world where Japan’s feudal Sengoku period unfolds again with high-tech weapons, magically powered mecha, Taoist magic, and super-powered samurai. Players portray characters shaped by their backgrounds and destinies, earning bonus points for staying in character and entertaining the group. These points can enhance abilities, but reckless use can send characters down the corrupt path of the Asura. Play is structured like a theatrical production, using scenes, acts, intermissions, and coming attractions, with a complete story or campaign designed to fit into a 4–6 hour session.
