EMPYREAN : The Hyperfantasy RPG

EMPYREAN: The Hyperfantasy RPG

(Three Handbooks from Hyperfantasy Handbooks)

             EMPYREAN (Core Handbook A)

What if leveling up wasn’t the end goal— but instead just a beginning?

EMPYREAN is a kaleidoscopic fusion of high fantasy, anime intensity, comic book grandeur, and old-school grit. Designed for fans of D&D, Pathfinder, and d20-based systems who’ve ever asked, “Why can’t I cast spells while dual-wielding shotguns while riding an angelic beast?"

This is not your average fantasy world. It’s a living mythscape between realities—where dying is expected, rebirth is inevitable, and becoming immortal is just a stepping stone to perfection.

With 128 Base Archetypes (that evolve like Class + Race hybrids, each with 33 unique brand new abilities), an unlockable combat system that doesn't rely on leveling up, and tiered power levels that climb from mortal to immortal (and beyond), EMPYREAN offers unlimited customization, soul-forged growth, and battles that bend the cosmos.

Survive. Ascend. Rewrite Reality.

Welcome to EMPYREAN. You're going to die a lot.

             Worldcrafter's Guide (Core Handbook B)

The Worldcrafter’s Guide is your spellbook, survival manual, and secret weapon all in one—crafted for GMs and players who like their d20 games turned up to 11. Packed with errata, optional rules, expanded mechanics, and dev-deep dives, this guide peels back the curtain on EMPYREAN, the high-octane hyperfantasy RPG where archetypes evolve, death is a detour, and the world itself responds to your story.

Inside, you'll find:

• Rule clarifications, power tier evolutions, and stacking bonus types explained without handwaving.
• Alternate mechanics for damage, death, and destiny—because why settle for hit points alone?
• Tools to create bosses that don't fold in round one.
• Lore, logic, and lunacy on the nature of Empyreanites, archetypes, and soulbound progression.

This isn’t just a rulebook—it’s your license to twist fate, bend time, and unleash your players’ full narrative potential.

             Archetype Compendium (Core Handbook C)

128 [Archetypes]. Zero Limits. Just Pure, Unfiltered Potential.

Craving more than Fighter, Rogue, or Wizard? Step into Empyrean’s Archetype Compendium—a genre-bending, cosmos-spanning anthology of class-and-race hybrids where every choice rewrites your legend. Pick not just one, but many as you gain levels/HD, equipping to [DNA Slots]! Mix, Match, & Master!

From Color Clans to Supervillains, Zodiac signs to Undead machines, this tome is your all-access pass to 128 fully fleshed-out Archetypes, each with its own flavor, mechanics, and world-shaking powers. Summon cosmic dragons, forge reality with literal ink and paper, or weaponize social status in the high school battlefield of gods. Which of the 14 [Families] will inspire you? Whether you're a GM building a world or a player crafting a soul, this is where the myths begin. Some might even use these abilities as basis for new magical items, boss abilities, special perks, alternative 'domains', or an awesome way to role play concepts such as Persona or Materia. Likewise, with [Archetypes] and it's unique world mythos - this TTRPG is the closest thing to METAPHOR, Elden Ring, Final Fantasy, or Yakuza you will find on the market! 

You’re not picking a class. You’re defining a destiny. Welcome to the compendium. Pick your Archetypes, master them, and become unforgettable.
