The obSESSION RPG Meta-System.

The obSESSION Beta Editon Playtest

obSESSION has been in the pipeline for more years than I care to remember but after a lot of tweaking and adjustment it is finally being delivered into the hands of the public for evaluation. The Beta Editon of the Core Rules is now available on DriveThruRPG and for those who absolutely must have an early print copy of the Core Rulebook one is available on Lulu. Emphasis must be made that this print copy is not the final print release but is being made available for those who want one.
The obSESSION Beta Edition is a release designed to be used to playtest and improve the system before it's final commercial release. On it's initial release the Beta contained the Core Rulebook, a sample chapter from the forthcoming Simple Fantasy genre supplement and a "Extras" booklet. Note that the print copy available from Lulu does not include the Extras Booklet or Simple Fantasy preview.
Purchase of the PDF Beta Edition will entitle you to receive the Core Set when it is released, including the full versions of the Appendices. Over the course of the remaining development the Beta Edition will be revised to gradually bring it closer to the final Core Set. This will involve both the addition of the Appendix material and the removal of the "Extras" and the sample chapter, though some material which originally surfaces in Extras will likely end up in the Appendices.

The obSESSION Forums on fogonline.com include a Topic specifically for the assesment and discussion of the Beta Edition and it is here that announcements regarding the progress of development will initially be made, though "milestones" will be posted on the News page of this site.
Players wishing to get involved in these discussion will need to register with the Fogonline phpBB system and then request addition to the "obSESSION Players" group, either by means of a Private Message to me (Fishy) or by emailing the request to obsession @ fogonline.com (without the spaces, obviously).
