Feral City (Ashcan)

Feral City takes place in your city.

A beautifully disturbed reflection of it, but nonetheless: Your City.

Feral City is a speculative streetfighting roleplaying game where you play a human-animal hybrid living in the margins, creating art, and finding liberation in the occult chaos of their unprecedented identity.

It features a bespoke diceless system for personal, intense, hard-bitten hand-to-hand combat with vast potential to be pushed by your character's ambitions, as well as player-guided storytelling rooted in the emotions and intuitions of the characters and their creators.

This ashcan is the majority of the text.

It is the minimum you need to run your own game. It includes all the rules for creating hybrids, storytelling, fighting, as well as 6 unique styles of martial arts and how to create your own through play. The parts it is missing is the details about playing its guide, the high-level esoterica of some of the given martial arts, and a pre-made selection of characters for the guide to populate your City.
