Game System: Cypher

Rust and Redemption: Bitter Seeds

In this post-apocalyptic adventure, the player characters must find and retrieve viable grain from a before-times seed bank. Doing so requires that they overcome raiders, radiation, and other threats of the wasteland, including a mysterious warlord that has no face.

Bitter Seeds is a Cypher System adventure suitable for four to six tier 1 PCs. Available as part of the Rust and Redemption setting/supplement book.

(Note: The cover image on the left is one I mocked-up to feature the art that accompanies the adventure in Rust and Redemption, as there is no actual cover for it.)
