In the Maju, life is shorter than a dynamite fuse! Terror Target Gemini is an OSR Roleplaying Game where you play as a Runners, professional adventurers hired for dangerous tasks (deliveries, arrests, rescue missions, assassinations) in the savage lands called known as the Maju. One player takes the role of the Narrator, defining and describing interesting locations, portraying their inhabitants, running combat and how the world changes as you play. TERROR TARGET GEMINI is a hyperviolent and anachronistic western, a colorful and wacky fantasy, and an action-packed manga full of demonic gunslingers and martial arts witches.RUNNERS Runners take on all manner of dangerous jobs, and their License documents their ability to carry them out. Successful jobs lead to Wèn, and Wèn lead to Stars. Stars mean Runners can acquire more skills, influence, and reputation. Every self-respecting Runner aims to stock up on cash and scale the ranks by gaining Stars. That’s only possible when working as a team: lone wolves rarely succeed, especially on tougher missions. Typical Runner work includes delivering or picking up rare objects, investigating mysteries, hunting monsters… Wanted criminals also have large bounties on their heads, and the right collector will pay a fortune for reclaimed treasures.ALL IN ONE TERROR TARGET GEMINI includes everything you need to experience your own hyper-violent, anachronistic western adventure, living out a colorful, zany fantasy atmosphere with action manga overtones populated by demonic gunslingers and martial arts witches. Inside the handbook are rules for creating your own runners (or starting with pregenerated characters!), arming them and throwing them into the fray against a whole repertoire of wanted men, background on the Maju and an in-depth guide to the city of Djar-Zagazig, as well as two complete adventures (Don’t Look Back and The Wolves of Alkharab) and plenty of guidance for making your encounters in the hex maps ever more imaginative.THE MAJU One land lies between these opposing fires. The Maju. A barren region in which the city of Djar Zagazig blossoms from the sands like a black rose. A den of spies and opportunists, rabble-rousers and terrorists, merchant associations, wizard researchers, and poisoners. The desert metropolis is a vast maze bristling with dangers. Wide streets and a variety of bridges, alleyways, filthy underpasses, and unstable scaffolding connect the city’s districts. The Wagon, an assembly of democratically elected senators, rules the city. However, this ruling body is deeply influenced by leagues, mob cartels, the old Sultan Ammarduk II (a trace of the former government), the Academies of Arcane Preservation, and ancient secret organizations like the Arabesque.BEHIND THE WHEEL Trains reach Djar-Zag in 3 days, cutting through the Maju desert. Planes brave the Kalimba skies and are worshiped like Rocs by island Felids. Streamlined speedsters tear up the racetracks in Volkendek, the city of motors. Different machines, same principles. In TERROR TARGET GEMINI, driving your Rides is an essential tool of every Runner: it’s a series of checks based on your surroundings and the actions of enemy pilots.ADVENTURES Don’t Look Back is a short introductory adventure for Terror Target Gemini, already included in the handbook. On the Maju-Zagazig-Zug, a train speeding through the desert, eight groups of individuals with different motivations hunt each other and act simultaneously. The runners must decide quickly their alliances so they don’t get killed! The second adventure included in the handbook, The Wolves of Alkharab, takes you to the wilderness north of Maju, infested with wolves… and not only that. Solve as many assignments as you can in this hexcrawl full of unpredictable encounters, to be explored freely.
