Agêratos

Agêratos is a narrative-driven, fiction-first TTRPG system where players and GM alike share authorship of the story. The system’s focus is of collective, emergent storytelling revolving around who has control of the story—called Saga Control—and the narrative impact this control can have. Minimal rules, setting-agnostic, and designed to adapt to your play style, Agêratos is about freeing your creativity and imagination—not curtailing it. Craft Sagas of any setting, any genre, any theme—truly the only limit is your imagination.
