Game PageAwake in the BlackA crew, a ship, a job, and the consequences of pushing too far when stopping is worse.

Between Jobs, Between Worlds
The crew is the heart of Awake in the Black: talking through the next move, trading jokes, nursing coffee, and facing tomorrow's risks together. Between runs and between worlds, shipboard life is where the setting becomes personal.
01
Build the Crew
Define characters by role, approach, trait, problem, and pressure.
02
Build the Ship
The ship is a shared character, asset, problem, and record of survival.
03
Take the Job
Contracts create pressure, profit, faction exposure, and hard trade-offs.
04
Carry Consequences
Success and failure both reshape the situation and follow the crew forward.
Crew Survival
The table lives through coordinated risk, role tension, and shared survival decisions.
Ship-First Play
The ship takes damage, gains history, strains under pressure, and matters mechanically.
Persistent Consequence
Every job changes reputation, resources, heat, enemies, obligations, or the ship itself.
Start Here
First Session Kit
Start with the Player Handbook, use the Crew Creation Guide to define the table’s shared identity, then keep the Core Rulebook close once the job goes sideways.
Bundled site files and tools open in a new tab.
When It Goes Loud
Hold the Line
Not every job stays manageable. When the hull shakes, alarms hit, and the corridor turns into a kill zone, the crew survives by discipline, grit, and covering each other under pressure.
Shipboard Details
Tools of the Trade
Selected visual details from the void: survival gear, cockpit comforts, and the equipment that stays close when things go wrong.
Pressure Gear
Helmets, seals, and patched-together kit are part identity marker and part survival promise.
Field Essentials
When the job gets ugly, compact medkits and practical gear matter more than polish or comfort.
Cockpit Rituals
Even out in the black, the crew keeps small habits alive: battered mugs, routine checks, and a place to breathe.

Game PageCultists & ClassroomsEducators as unlikely heroes, school supplies as survival tools, and literal monsters loose on campus.
Featured Art
Faculty on the Front Line
When the hallways collapse into chaos, teachers and staff become the campus response team—protecting students, improvising under pressure, and pushing back against the monsters loose on school grounds.
01
Read Player Materials
Start with the Player Handbook or the core rulebook.
02
Create Staff
Build a campus employee using Personas, roles, and attributes.
03
Set the Bell
Use Session Zero: Before the First Bell to define tone and boundaries.
04
Survive Campus
Investigate, improvise, protect students, and stop the ritual.
School Horror-Comedy
Familiar routines collide with supernatural danger, broken systems, and educator absurdity.
Educators as Heroes
Teachers and staff solve impossible problems with exhausted competence and improvised tools.
Concrete Mystery
Zombies are zombies. Demons are demons. Clues should produce action, not confusion.
Campus Artifacts
Objects from the District
Ordinary school objects become clues, survival tools, and recurring symbols inside the nightmare.
Faculty Lounge Fuel
Coffee, stress, and strange signs—sometimes the first clue is sitting in the mug beside the copier.
Keys to the Campus
Master keys, restricted doors, and access to the rooms where the district would rather nobody look too closely.
Books and Bad Apples
Lesson plans, old records, and half-forgotten texts help piece together what the school has been hiding.

First Session Kit

Game PageStar Wars: Flow of the ForceRecovered instruction, dangerous power, and a Force-attuned character whose philosophy emerges through repeated choices.
Second Official Edition
The Force Calls
Begin as a Force-attuned individual whose identity has not yet solidified. Learn through fragments, mentors, relics, practice, and consequential trials while deciding what power means and who your character becomes.
Private-Use Fan Project
Unofficial and Noncommercial
Star Wars: Flow of the Force is an unofficial fan-created tabletop roleplaying game for private play. It is not affiliated with, authorized by, sponsored by, or endorsed by Lucasfilm Ltd., The Walt Disney Company, or any official Star Wars licensee.
01
Create the Attuned
Establish identity, Instructional Origin, Approaches, Attunement, character core, and starting Turbulence.
02
Commit the Force
Resolve power through Success Dice, Force Dice, Failure Dice, Commitment, Signature, Advantage, and Strain.
03
Walk a Path
Harmony, Hegemony, and Sovereignty emerge through repeated choices rather than a label selected at creation.
04
Earn Mastery
Instruction creates possibility. Practice develops control. Trials and Revelations establish transformation.
Narrative D6 Engine
Success and failure resolve the objective while Advantage and Strain determine the cost, position, insight, and consequence surrounding it.
Power With Consequence
The Force is extraordinary but never free. Characters may accept the result, release control, or seize power at a dangerous price.
Exploration and Instruction
Ruins, archives, holocrons, kyber, mentors, artifacts, and persistent sites make discovery part of both advancement and belief.
Recovered Traditions
The Path Is Built Through Play
Flow of the Force treats philosophy, instruction, and consequence as active campaign systems rather than fixed character labels.
Turbulence and the Three Paths
Characters begin unsettled. Harmony, Hegemony, and Sovereignty become coherent only through repeated decisions, reflection, Marks, and Trials.
Artifacts and Lost Instruction
Recovered knowledge is biased, incomplete, and consequential. Exploration changes what characters can do and what they believe.
Campaigns Under Pressure
The Game Master controls pressure, clues, clocks, factions, mentors, rivals, and pursuit. Players determine the answers their characters live by.
Start Here
First Session Kit
Begin with the ten-minute Quick Start Guide, record the character in the Digital Character Console, then move into the Player’s Handbook for complete player rules. Keep the Core Rulebook available for Game Master procedures and campaign architecture.
