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.
