Eclipse Phase is a pen & paper roleplaying game of post-apocalyptic transhuman conspiracy and horror.Eclipse Phase is an RPG set in Earth’s far distant future, when humanity has achieved immortality by abandoning the need for physical bodies and transforming brain patterns into digital information.As a result, characters can change their bodies at will and always have a "backup copy" ready to deploy in case of "death."The game uses a percentile system and has no set classes, allowing customization based on skills,including psionic abilities.An "eclipse phase" is the period between when a cell is infected by a virus and when the virus appears within the cell and transforms it. During this period, the cell does not appear to be infected, but it is.Players take part in a cross-faction secret network dubbed Firewall that is dedicated to counteracting "existential risks" threats to the existence of transhumanity, whether they be biowar plagues, self-replicating nanoswarms, nuclear proliferation, terrorists with WMDs, net-breaking computer attacks, rogue AIs, alien encounters, or anything else that could drive an already decimated transhumanity to extinction.
