What's It About: Embark on an adventurous journey with your friends as a nomadic Mob, navigating the perils of the Now in pursuit of wealth transported into your realm from the remnants of the Before. Choose to embody a daring Bird-Rider, a formidable Flenser, or even step into the shoes of Lanyard Everett—a Jesusman adept at spell-slinging with one hand and firearm precision with the other. The universe of the "Books of Before & Now" unfolds in a brutally captivating, darkly humorous narrative, seamlessly compatible with the Dungeons & Dragons 5e system.
