THE TIMELESS LIBRARY
You’ve had the same dream a couple of times: you’re standing in front of a dark blue box, bigger than a person, and a strange sound fills the air. The only way to describe it is ‘VWORP!’ The door opens, but all you can see beyond is a bright light, beckoning you inside. A voice echoes in your mind: ‘Please help me — I need you. The Universe needs you.’ When you wake up, you can remember it so clearly that it didn’t feel like a dream at all.

VORTEX
The Doctor Who Roleplaying Game uses the innovative Vortex system to make every session feel as exciting as a jaunt in the TARDIS. Players can use Story Points to influence the plot at any time, creating bold new narratives and ensuring the action never falls flat.

The Success Ladder adds a layer of easy to understand complexity that makes every roll exciting and dramatic. Failures can turn into new opportunities and successes can add narrative complications to successes, creating free-flowing, action packed pulp adventures.

Playing with a moral code as strict as the Doctor’s could seem restrictive to some, but the Initiative system rewards quick wit, peacekeeping, and running away from whoever has the gun - fighting a Dalek isn’t likely to end well! Talkers and Runners always get to act before Fighters in the Doctor Who Roleplaying Game.
