The opening of the Ring gates creates unlimited possibilities for new
adventures in The Expanse RPG and Beyond the Ring gives GMs all the
tools they need to support stories like the novel Cibola Burn.
The Ring gates are open, as The Expanse RPG advances its timeline to the
fourth novel in the series, Cibola Burn. The Ring, a massive construct
created by the protomolecule out near the orbit of Uranus, is a portal
into a strange non-space known as "the Slow Zone." Centered on an
ancient alien station, it connects to more than a thousand other portals
to a thousand different star systems, each with one or more worlds
shaped by the ancient aliens who created the protomolecule and intended
to do the same to Earth. Now they are long gone, and vast frontiers have
opened for human settlement and exploration. Beyond the Ring details the
Slow Zone, Medina Station, travel through the Ring gates, and some of
the many systems found beyond them, along with tools for Game Masters to
design their own systems for characters to explore. Beyond the Ring
opens up a whole new type of adventure for The Expanse RPG, as
characters travel to distant star systems and face unknown perils!
