ECOLOGICAL SCIENCE FANTASY RPG

CLOUD EMPRESS

An expansive Nausicaa-inspired campaign setting
compatible with the Mothership RPG.

In Summer, the Imago (giant cicadas) rise in great numbers to feed on the bones of the dead. Monks and villagers dry corpses in huge burial mounds to satisfy their hunger. A few hundred Imago are spotted each summer, but once in a hundred years, the Century Brood appears. Tens of thousands of Imago climb from deep soil and reduce the land to rubble. Now the Century Brood has been unearthed and the Cloud Empress has gone missing.

Cloud empress is a startling vision of imagination & wonder.

Filled with fresh ideas and rooted in play, it is deeply human work.

“The writing, the art direction, and the rules are in equal parts exceptional, bringing the perfect fusion of science and fantasy to the Mothership RPG.”
