The Ninth World comes to Fifth Edition!<\/b><\/h2>\n

They say there have been eight worlds before ours. Eight times the people of this planet, over vast millennia, built their civilizations, reaching heights we cannot even fully imagine now. They spoke to the stars, reshaped the creatures of the world, and mastered form and essence. They built cities and machines that have since crumbled to dust, leaving only their barest remnants.<\/i><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is the Ninth World. The people of the prior worlds are gone\u2014scattered, disappeared, or transcended. But their works remain, in the places and devices that still contain some germ of their original function. To the ignorant, these workings of the ancients are magic. But the wise know differently \u2026<\/i><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Ninth World is the setting of Monte Cook’s multiple-award-winning Numenera RPG<\/a>. Beneath the Monolith<\/i> brings this critically acclaimed world to 5e. Explore the ruins of incomprehensible civilizations. Discover the numenera, ancient technologies so advanced that most people think they\u2019re just magic. Encounter creatures weird, fierce, and dangerous. Open doors to new worlds and alternate dimensions. And, perhaps, unlock some of the mysteries of the prior worlds.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Beneath the Monolith<\/span><\/i> brings the wondrous Ninth World your Fifth Edition game.<\/span><\/p>\n
