| Horizon: out of the ashes is a science fiction-themed roleplaying game, featuring compelling future events of oppression, resistance and hard-won survival, set on humanity's only colony planet: Horizon. Despite the futuristic perspective, the world has just a hint of Old West flair and draws primarily on themes of grit, conflict and the unknown, without glamorizing technology or human nature. In that regard, the civilization of Horizon is advanced, but remains more relatable to the present day, or even the past, than it does to a distant future of bubble domes and space-taxis. Since the main setting is the colony world of Horizon, background is mostly conveyed through the stories and adventures of its people, including war, betrayal and other, stranger events, but if you're new and would like to get a good feel for our universe, we thoroughly recommended reading __[[lore:horizon:the_horizon_story|The Horizon Story]]__ on the Story page. | Horizon: out of the ashes is a science fiction-themed roleplaying game, featuring compelling future events of oppression, resistance and hard-won survival, set on humanity's only colony planet: Horizon.
