If I want to become a Buddha or a Dragon Elephant, I'll have to become an ox or a horse, a mortal at the ninth level, and be reborn; I'll take the Nine Transformation of Spirit and fight for my life with the heavens; if I step into the Spirit Sea, then I can transcend the five elements of heaven and earth. A chess piece could point to the rivers and mountains, a chess piece could contain the heavens of all worlds, a chess piece could bring down countless stars, and within the chess board, there would be a chess game, and within the chess piece, there would be heaven and earth.

Introduction Rebirth is the story of survival in a world dominated by predator civilizations fighting for existence in a realm created from the shambling remnants of mankind. Rebirth is a dark-fantasy RPG that features a d100 percentile system and takes place in a setting reminiscent of the middle ages. Lore 275 years after the end of the world, the land of Kreyo stands divided by seven war-torn nations. Each nation falls under the rule of one of seven great necromancers. The seven who brought a dying mankind to its end. The seven who poured demonic power and new life into its husk. Sar'gon the Diplomat, Nahrun the Student, Narcon the Inventor, Reuce the Surgeon, Kre'uul the Murderer, Daerrus the Master, and Fae'el the God. Each nation is represented by their own culture, a reflection of their necromancer's reason for betraying humanity. The corpse of humanity rose as the demonic power coursed through their veins, reanimated and reborn in the image of the mankind they replaced.The reborn of Kreyo appear no different than man, except for the mark of their necromancer scarred into their right hand. Cursed with the free will of their predecessors, the reborn fight for survival, glory, fame, riches, power, or whatever they desire. Free from the bonds of sleep, the reborn are not controlled by the waning of the day, though they are not free of the burden of required nourishment. Playing the Game Rebirth is a tabletop role-playing game determined to grant diversity to the players, allowing them to navigate a broken world. With 14 base professions and 24 advanced professions, Rebirth rewards diversity in party creation, shedding light on often forgotten roles, such as support and crafting, making them almost essential to the party's survival, and breathing new life into the ever-present fighters and charismatic manipulators of the role playing genre. The setting is a dark world, constantly at war both on the bloodstained battlefield and behind the political curtain. The theme of the game is resource management and is displayed through the combat, currency, and crafting systems, rewarding forethought and preparation. Teamwork and flexibility are integral to survival in Rebirth and one of the major appeals of the game. Mastering synergies between professions can be the difference between life and death. The gladiator, a melee based fighting profession, becomes exponentially stronger when supported by a prophet, a support profession that deals self-inflicted damage to drastically increase the abilities of their allies. The gladiator becomes even stronger when using powerful artifacts, weapons imbued with special abilities such as life stealing attacks, created by the artificer, a crafting profession focused on the creation of artifacts. Unique and in-depth professions allow for complicated synergies between party members. Review "Absolutely love it. The book is about 50/50 lore and crunch, which works very well to paint the picture of the setting without "Telling you" everything that's going on in the world verbatim. It leaves much very open for the players in a way I really enjoy. A solid framework without hand holding too much." - Nicholas Baughman Additional Information For further information, free additional content, and GM support, including downloadable characters, NPCs, and campaigns, check out our website at RebirthRoleplaying.com For updates and sneak peeks, follow us on Twitter and Facebook. https://www.twitter.com/roleplayrebirth/ https://www.facebook.com/RPGRebirth/ If you have any questions, we will help in anyway we can.

"For the first time ever, Westerners can enjoy one of the traditional Tibetan pastimes-the game of Rebirth. This authentic Tibetan board game depicts the Buddhist map of the universe in a scheme of 104 squares. Each square represents a stage of enlightenment and, with each roll of the die, one progresses toward nirvana, afloat among gods of delight, or descends to one of many hellish states, such as that of the realm of hungry ghosts with necks the size of a pin, bellies as big as hills, and in whose mouths food turns to fire. Rebirth was invented in the thirteenth century by the great Sanskrit scholar Sakya pandita Kunga Gyaltsen ("Whose Banner Is Total Joy'); it came to be regarded as an educational game, teaching children the Buddhist religious philosophy while providing entertainment for adults and a means of determining present states of consciousness and future patterns of rebirth.The modern reader may use the game as either an instructive pastime, or as a form of divination similar to that offered by the I Ching. This version is presented with an introduction, complete instructions for playing the game, commentary for each of the 104 squares, and a full-color poster- size tanka gameboard which-drawn in accord with ritual iconography-may be used for worship and meditation." --

Over the past year, I have been composing the soundtrack for a video game of my own conception. The game, entitled Rebirth, explores the possibility of widespread human population decrease as climate change and other global issues worsen. The focus of my project is to create a soundtrack that explores the boundaries between sound and music, tonality and atonality, and organicism versus predetermination. The score leads the player through the world as it heals from humanity's damage. Throughout this process, I have become more comfortable with my composition process. I have delved deeply into the space between sound and music, and I have thought critically about the future of our planet. By creating something engaging for adults and children alike, such as a video game, I aim to inspire players who may have never considered their footprint to reflect on their place on this Earth.
The first book-length study devoted to FromSoftware games, On Soulsring Worlds explores how the Dark Souls series and Elden Ring are able to reconcile extreme difficulty in both gameplay and narrative with broad appeal. Arguing that the games are strategically positioned in relation to contemporary audiences and designed to tap into the new forms of interpretation afforded by digital media, the author situates the games vis-à-vis a number of current debates, including the posthuman and the ethics of gameplay. The book delivers an object lesson on the value of narrative (and) complexity in digital play and in the interpretive practices it gives rise to. Cross-fertilizing narrative theory, game studies, and nonhuman-oriented philosophy, this book will appeal to students and scholars of game studies, media studies, narratology, and video game ethnography.
