Publisher's Synopsis
The World of Lazarus is the first campaign setting for Green Ronin's new
Modern AGE RPG. Based on the critically acclaimed Lazarus series by Greg Rucka
and Michael Lark and presented by Image Comics, the book brings this noir
dystopia to tabletop roleplaying games. In the near future, time has rendered
death obsolete, and life infinitely cheap. In the wake of governments' failure
and global upheaval, the Families stepped in and divvied up the world. Now peace
and order reign in a world of technological marvels and neo-feudalism. The
Families quietly war with one another, wagering the lives of loyal Serfs while
they relax in lives of indulgence, all while the Waste-those left behind by this
new order-struggle daily for base survival. Play members of a Family in the
highest of high-stakes game, Serfs fighting for their Family's interests to
maintain order and safety, or disaffected Waste fighting for a better life in
the burned ruins of the old world. The World of Lazarus requires the Modern AGE
Basic Rulebook for use.
