Statement

This project is a pride and joy of mine. The TETHRAN RPG is a playable TTRPG that encourages player creativity, roleplay, and exploration. It’s not often you see TTRPGs with plots or mechanics specific to underwater exploration, and that had always disappointed me. So! I took it upon myself to stretch my worldbuilding abilities and game design knowledge to create the world of Tethran. A setting taking place exclusively underwater, aside from three small islands in the region. 
Majority of this project was writing. From creating 9 playable species, to balancing the mechanics with the 5 classes or ROLES as they’re called. Each with 3 concentrations players can choose from, I was really writing 15 unique classes. Creating mechanics unique to being underwater exclusively was an interesting challenge but something I welcomed fully. Then creating the culture(s) and unique living conditions of the residents within the region was also a topic I knew I needed to master! With a long history of art, agriculture, and engineering, Tethran was everything I loved mashed into a single system for me, and my friends to enjoy. In the future, I’m looking to publish the first edition for others to play on their own.
