Earthdawn

The Earthdawn role-playing system is a fantasy table-top role-playing system set in a post-apocalyptic world ruined by magical monster. It boasts a strong and detailed setting (Barsaive) and provides coherent in-universe explanation for most of the tropes of D&D. The latest and best edition is 4th edition by FASA games
