Nova Praxis is a Fate-based game of Transhumanist Space Opera published by Void Star Studios, positing a not-so-dark future where a short-lived Singularity ultimately lead to the demise of Earth, but left the survivors with access to the stars, once-unthinkable technologies, and the power to decide who — and what — humanity should be.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Nova Praxis (Tabletop Game) / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: In the Shadow War, secrecy is so paramount that even the most bitter rival Houses will clean up each other's messes rather than allow any hint of either side's illegal operations to reach the public. It's very reminiscent of the famous Omerta code.

Gone Horribly Wrong: The technophage was only meant to take out the Alliance capital and then be deactivated. But it failed to respond to its shutoff code, and kept spreading (and evolving) until all of Earth was lost.

Transhuman Treachery
 Nova Praxis (Tabletop Game) / int_19f6e383
comment
Transhuman Treachery: The ascension cults, who not only care nothing for the Humanity Preservation Act, but typically care nothing about human morality, period. At absolute best, they're Blue-and-Orange Morality oddballs whose vision of sentience's future is merely squick-tastic. More often, they're monstrously post-human psychopaths with a tragically high chance of being The Virus or even The Corruption.

Death by Origin Story: The character creation rules assume that transhuman PCs do not occupy their original body (and SIM PCs definitely do not), so it is possible for dying to be part of a PC's background story.

comment
Gray-and-Grey Morality: The Shadow War itself. While all six Houses conduct illegal operations against one another and/or do unethical things on the side, no House overall is so wretchedly amoral that they could stand in for House Harkonnen. Consequently, player characters are allowed to be citizens of any of the six Houses.

Puny Earthlings: Downplayed. Pure characters may not be as augmented (or immortal) as their transhuman counterparts, but they get bonus Aspects and more Fate Points to use those Aspects, making them kind of the Batman to a tricked-out Epsilon sleeve's Superman.

comment
Even Evil Has Standards: Apostate space pirates are actually less bloodthirsty than their counterparts in other space settings. Immobilize the Coalition's vessels and loot their cargos all you want, but straight up destroying a ship or slaughtering its crew down to the last man? That makes you a Not-So-Harmless Villain in the eyes of the Coalition, and their retribution will be so harsh that even other apostate pirates will come gunning for you before the heat gets to them. Thus, most pirates prefer not to spill more blood than they have to.

Body Surf: Downplayed. In theory, any Apotheosized individual can resleeve in one body after another, but resleeving is traumatic enough to inflict serious mental stress. You can resist this with the right character build (high Cohesion skill, an appropriate post-human Aspect, the Ego Stabilization Software stunt, using an exact clone of your previous body, etc), but resleeving is still something that should not be done frivolously.

 Nova Praxis (Tabletop Game) / int_4612ec70
comment
No Transhumanism Allowed: Played with. While Apotheosis, resleeving, SIMs, and most forms of augmentation are all legal, the Humanity Preservation Act prohibits cyborgs and AIs from becoming superhumanly intelligent, and strictly limits how "inhuman" sleeves (especially biosleeves) can become. Needless to say, many transhumans hate these limitations and work to undermine them, while Purists feel the HPA isn't harsh enough.

Critical Existence Failure: In an odd sense, as with other Fate-based games. You can rack up as much stress (among any track) as you like up to your maximum, and have no problems until that final box renders you Taken Out. But without accepting stress-negating Consequences (which do penalize you), any real conflict is going to fill up your stress track quickly.

Meaningful Name: Mimir, the super-AI who heralded humanity's interstellar age, shares a name with the Norse god of wisdom. And much like the original god's severed head, the AI's archives (the only part of it still extant) continues to grant "wisdom" to those who can decipher it.

Contagious A.I.: Aside from their potential to invent super-weapons beyond human comprehension, another danger of Mimir-level AIs is that the more hardware they have access to, the smarter they can become. As Everything Is Online, this alone makes them an existential threat, as they could potentially take over an entire planet, spreading their brain across it for even more exponential sentience growth.

Post-Scarcity Economy: In the Coalition, this exists at the individual level, as compilers and other post-singularity tech can create almost anything essentially for free, and only a citizen's rep-rating and licenses restrict what they can acquire. For the Houses themselves, it's a different story, as their businesses (legal and otherwise) require time, effort, and ideas — things that you can't just print out of a compiler.

Fate Worse than Death: One downside to Apotheosis is that it becomes easier to end up in And I Must Scream territory.

Body Backup Drive
 Nova Praxis (Tabletop Game) / int_cbf07961
comment
Body Backup Drive: Mnemonic cores, which can be extracted and used to resleeve a deceased individual with all their memories up to the time of (last) death. Individuals can also get an upgrade to perform a remote backup, allowing resleeving even if their mneumonic core can't be recovered, but in this case resleeving only retains memories up to the last backup. This can even lead to some Clone Angst if you get restored from backup, but then your mneumonic core is recovered (and resleeved) after all!

Space Cossacks: Some apostates serve as auxiliaries in the Shadow War, working for a House (and reaping the rewards) without being forced to join the Coalition proper.

 Nova Praxis (Tabletop Game) / int_d7700808
comment
Living Forever is No Big Deal: Most transhumans seem to occupy the middle ground between Who Wants to Live Forever? and Living Forever Is Awesome. Being able to resleeve after death (or before) is great, sure, but you can still become obsolete and irrelevant.

comment
Sliding Scale of Robot Intelligence: There are drones, which can function autonomously but work better with a human operator. Then there are Artifical General Intelligences (AGIs) which are as good as a human mind (but not better). Then there are Dynamic Creation Engines like Mimir.

Archaic Weapon for an Advanced Age: Even generations past the Singularity, powered melee weapons are still in use. Partly because firing a gun aboard a starship is sometimes a really bad idea, and partly because augmentation (and training) can enable you to keep up in combat even when the guns come out.

Humans Are Special: A central conflict in this setting. Transhumanism is pushing humanity towards post-humanism, but Purists still have a lot of political power, and they think that what humanity is (both mentally and physically) shouldn't be discarded so quickly.

Liberty Over Prosperity
 Nova Praxis (Tabletop Game) / int_e2dae05d
comment
Liberty Over Prosperity: A major theme. The Coalition offers security and a post-scarcity standard of living to all, but the bulk of its citizens have little in the way of privacy or political power. By contrast, the apostate communities that reject the Coalition have privacy and freedom, but without the Coalition's tech, every day is a struggle to survive, and all too many apostates turn to crime, piracy, or bumming off the Coalition's scraps.

Clone Angst: This can be done to Apotheosized individuals via forking — creating copies of their mind, which can be put in sleeves or booted up as SIMs. On top of whatever antics your fork might perpetrate, it is traumatic on its own to discover you've been forked.

Everything Is Online: Played straight in Coalition territory. Which is good because it's super-convenient, but also bad because authorities (and many Savants) can dig up every bit of data about your existence if you give them a reason to.

Cyberpunk: Between the Purism/transhumanism conflict (which keeps the latter from being too inhuman) and the Shadow War involving the MegaCorp-like Houses, Nova Praxis leans closer to the cyberpunk genre than most transhumanist settings.
