Opus Anima, a role-playing game blending horror, tragedy, and wild inventions!
Losing one’s soul is a curious experience.
It is unique to each individual, but its consequences stem directly from the Timeless One who saved you. Becoming a Soulless One means finally seeing the other side of the veil… a form of truth? Or rather, of absurdity?
Welcome to Kurip-Alep, where the ultra-codified society of a steam-powered empire rubs shoulders with the most grotesque horror. The colorful half-timbered houses and the ether struggle to conceal the sick world you are about to discover.
Opus Anima is a role-playing game that invites you to explore the loss of the soul and the quest to find it, set in an atmosphere blending horror, tragedy, and epic adventure with mad inventions, strange characters, and a touch of dark humor. A world that will often seem familiar, stable, and orderly at first glance, but which will reveal itself to be tortured, deformed, and grotesque upon closer inspection.
Reality is not what it seems.
The characters’ choices are at the heart of Opus Anima, and whatever decisions they make, they will, no matter what, have to pay the price.
