A Game of Cutting-Edge Magic From the introduction: Sorcerously Advanced is a "hard fantasy" game of cutting-edge magic. It focuses on questions of power, justice, safety, and potential in the aftermath of a metaphysical singularity. In this setting, magic is so ubiquitous, so powerful, and so well-developed that it has become the basis for the world's civilizations. Sorcerously Advanced is a speculative fiction game that doesn't revolve around rare, powerful mages and mighty warriors, but instead around the destiny of a world where everyone has magical power. Player characters in Sorcerously Advanced are envoys and archaeologists for the Archive, an organization that seeks out historical records and magical inscriptions from ages long past. Because many of their sites are in war zones, strange and distant worlds, and other dangerous surroundings, Archivists often recruit locals to help them complete their tasks. The Archive serves as an institution of learning for many civilizations, not all of whom are completely comfortable with their work. This game is about the effects of life-changing powers on society and on individuals. It’s about beliefs and decisions and the impacts they have. It’s about the endless nature of knowledge. Most of all, it’s about what it means to become what you desire.
