Cardiff Rift: An AU Torchwood RPG
2013.
London. Glasgow. Cardiff. Dublin.
Torchwoods One, Two, Three and Four.
Alien incursions of varying degrees are almost a daily occurrence, with blowfish driving sports cars not even ranking in the top 10 of strange sights that Torchwood have to deal with. From sentient alien slime to little black boxes that show up everywhere with no explanation or apparent meaning, Torchwood takes it all in stride and handles it. And between the running and the aliens and the fighting for their lives, the Torchwood operatives have to deal with their personal dramas, their office flirtations and domestic issues.
Cardiff Rift is set in an alternate universe where anything is possible. There is plenty of scope for original characters as well as canon, and not all characters need to be directly linked to Torchwood. All of the characters need friends, lovers, family etc.
Come along for the ride.

The Immune |

It's 2020; eight years after the pandemic began.
In 2012, the first infected appeared in London. In 2013, it had completely taken Europe. By 2014, it spread to the United States.
By 2016, the entire world was deemed a lost cause. Cities that formerly housed hustling and bustling business, bright lights and constant activity are shells of their former selves. Electricity for the masses is a near-lost memory and now the only places that hold electricity are "safe havens" like shelters or churches. There are no more new cars or cushy apartments.
What little freedoms the infected didn't take away, the government destroyed. People deemed "immune," people who didn't turn when bitten, were forced into servitude. Those who had yet to be bitten had the option to help out as well. Immune, and non-immune helpers, were pushed to the brink of exhaustion by the power hungry government, who sat safely in their safe areas.
Finally, in 2020, people have moved on from the government's games. A small pocket of resistance, residing in New York City, formulated a plan and have created a true "safe haven" in Sing Sing Correctional Facility. No government, and a true safe haven behind walls that no infected can scale. After eight years of oppression, a change has finally begun.
But that change isn't simple, by any means. Now, the survivors have to contend with a constant government threat, and various uncouth rebel groups who want to take advantage of their advances or take them down from the inside. Plus, there's still the constant threat of infection right outside the walls, constantly dwindling the population.
The safety is palpable. But it's definitely better than government control.

CAPES AND COWLS
Rules Cast Holds Application The Marvel universe and the DC universe has coexisted side by side forever. Both worlds blended so seamlessly together that not one soul had known there had been a merging on two worlds. There of course were some changes like Beatriz da Costa working for SHEILD instead of becoming a Justice League International member of Carol Danvers joining the Justice League of America instead of The Avengers. Even couples had changed as well but it was so seamless that it was unnoticeable. But as years go on adventurers get married, have lives and have children. Roles change, capes and cowls are passed down from one generation to the next and soon the new generation is picking up where the old one has left off. They learn like their parents before them that once you knock one baddie down, another will step up and take its place. The fight goes on, the only thing that changed is the cast. We are an AU Next Gen DCU and Marvel game. Check our mod journal if you have more questions or need more information. | |
