Streetlight Opera: System Core
A neo-noir modern crime roleplaying experience.
Welcome to Streetlight Opera, a gritty urban landscape where shadows dance with secrets and every alley holds a tale of deception. In this neo-noir crime setting, players delve into the heart of a city teeming with corruption, intrigue, and danger. Inspired by the atmospheric allure of film noir, the thrilling tension of gangster movies, and the intricate plot twists of television crime dramas, Streetlight Opera immerses participants in a world where morality is as fluid as the rain-soaked streets and trust is a currency in short supply. From the glitzy penthouses of high society to the dimly lit dives of the underworld, players navigate a web of alliances and betrayals, seeking fortune, redemption, or perhaps just survival, in the unforgiving spotlight of the city's shadowy stage.
The book enables creative and collaborative roleplaying in the neo-noir genre, providing dynamic player character options, a setting detailed enough to begin play but with plenty of room to add your own ideas, and all of the mechanics necessary to play. Write a one-paragraph blurb explaining what it does.
Streetlight Opera is part of Project Opera, a creative initiative that introduces limited-series roleplaying experiences containing everything you need in just five essential books. From the system core and character creation to worldbuilding, factions, and gripping adventures, there’s no endless stream of additional supplements.
Streetlight Opera is powered by DoubleZero, a skill-driven system, utilizing two 10-sided dice. The simple mechanics ensure dynamic play with degrees of success and outcomes that keep you on the edge of your seat. Everything needed to play is included in this volume.
