TABLETOP ROLE-PLAYING GAME

STOKER & WELLS: AUTHORS OF FATE

Coming Soon from Cinevore Studios!

Players in this exciting adventure travel through time and space as fictional versions of their favorite authors — from Jane Austen to J.R.R. Tolkein to Dr. Seuss. Recruited into the mysterious Order of the Golden Dawn, you take on deadly scenarios threatening the timeline, drawn from your own literary works. Only the brightest and most imaginative minds can work together and save the world!

How It Works

Welcome to Authors Of Fate, the roleplaying game of novel concepts and collaborative inspiration based on the world of the graphic novel series Stoker & Wells by Steven Peros!

In Authors Of Fate, players create fictional versions of real-life authors to tell a story of how those historical figures would later write their seminal works.

In Authors Of Fate, players create fictional versions of real-life authors to tell a story of how those historical figures would later write their seminal works.

Together, the Authors and Librarian weave an alternate version of events, going on a collaborative and fantastical adventure, aided by the Golden Dawn’s mysterious guidance.

Over the course of an adventure, the Authors will unravel mysteries, overcome climactic encounters, and achieve goals together that bear some resemblance to the famous books they will later be known for, but in doing so create a story unique in its own right.

Authors, with the aid of the Librarian, will flesh out their Compendiums of ideas, add Chapters to their stories, and become stronger, more versatile storytellers along the way, eventually allowing them to complete their opuses.

But the work of The Golden Dawn is never done, as the authors of history always require inspiration! So pick up your favorite book, become your favorite author through the lens you wish to see them, and join the adventure!

INSPIRATION

Based on the Graphic Novel Series by Steven Peros

In London of 1894, a 20-something screw-up named H.G. Wells and a 40-something theater manager named Bram Stoker meet and have a thrilling, frightening, and extraordinary adventure that inspires each writer’s first great success – THE TIME MACHINE and DRACULA.

So we asked ourselves… why stop at Bram Stoker and H.G. Wells?
