The portal city of Pan always had a tenuous position in Asia. But with all of the fractured realities seeping into this one, those realities will find the largest open door they can. Like a portal city. Turning it into a powder keg on the verge of collapse. This puts the Agents of Atlas—Pan’s mostly young protectors—in a dangerous spot. They’ll need to protect the people of Pan while navigating the surreality that threatens to engulf it all.
Genre
Young Adult Drama! Spies! Weird science! Maybe even sometimes dragons! Agents of Atlas truly can have it all. Pan’s position as a portal city for all of Asia (and a neighborhood in New York) puts them in a very unique position. There are countless permanent open doors through space, time, and reality and so all the broken dimensions have begun to pool around Pan. The young Agents of Atlas must navigate politics, emotions, and responsibilities in a constantly shifting reality. And that’s without getting into all the mystical and technological machinations of both Big Nguyen and Jimmy Woo.
Gameplay
Gameplay for an Agents of Atlas campaign puts a team of younger heroes in the position of being sole protectors of a nexus of swirling dimensions and several open doors to major cities around Asia. They’ll be confronted not only with the encroaching weird and interdimensional castoffs threatening to overwhelm their home but also the politically fraught landscape of being gatekeepers for countless other nations on Earth.
