Lunar Echos

Lunar Echos is a GM-less TTRPG where you guide your characters on adventures around the future moon of Panga, a moon that has been split into two worlds: The Human and the Wild.

Lunar Echos is a hack of Jay Dragon's sublime game Wanderhome, transposing the action into the world of Becky Chambers' A Psalm for the Wild-Built and Prayer for the Crown Shy. The world is a Solarpunk future, a world without want where humans live in far greater harmony with nature. 

This book is the start of a journey into a newly developing and transitioning world of empathy and care that players will help create. 

Together, we’ll venture throughout the moon world of Panga. We’ll visit towns where houses hang from trees and villages constructed from upcycled old world waste. We’ll meet tea monks and tinkerers, visionaries and reactionaries, and other strange and amazing folks. Along the way, we’ll help others in any ways we can. And, of course, we’ll accept the help of others when we’re in need too. Because after all, that’s what communities do. 

If we’re lucky, we might even meet a robot, though that’s unlikely. 

Are you ready to explore empathy in a world on the mend? Good. Then we humbly invite you to join us.
