Technology never developed in this world beyond the steam engines, and clockworks. But that never stopped innovation. Steam-power became further refined, and now the world is in mid swing of technological and industrial revolution.
This setting mixes wondrous da vinci-esque clockwork & steam devices with the trappings of the Victorian and Gregorian periods.
The advent of steam locomotion brings forth a new frontier, bringing the world of steampunk out of the industrial era, and into to the forefront of civilization, a world of one land, train heists and steampowered cowboys.
This release would include a number of tinkerer and wild-west inspired sublclasses. The bestiary would include clockwork automatae, steam powered devices, and the machinery of the emerging frontiers
CyberPunk:
A neon dystopia where corporate entities view the 99% as little more as another resource to exploited - a statistic. espionage and immense inequality between the top and the bottom rung of the world feature heavily in cyberpunk settings. This is the age of the digital mind, and computer mind interfaces, cybernetic augmentation(both legal and illegal) are very common, and the silent voices in the machine watch your every move, though their motives are often unknowable.
This release would include a number of subclasses ranging from hackers to technomancers,and grifters of various specialties. The Bestiary would include a number of cybernetic monsters and individuals to bring the reality of this cybernetically enhanced world to your table.
GhostPunk:
A Ghost-busters inspired pulp setting in which the spirit world and physical world are beginning to merge, creating large scale problems that a select few who are trained to fight again the rising tide of spirits. Are you the only organization fighting this tide? are the governments of the world hiding the spiritual , or is the existence of life beyond death common knowledge? These are questions only your DM can answer
The Sub-classes of this release would be various types of ghost hunters, or those with ties to more esoteric entities. The Bestiary would include many new spectral foes each with their own haunting mechanics, as well as a handful of corporeal foes.
ArcanaPunk:
Science fiction made fantasy. this setting features very advanced technology grounded in arcane origins. While technology stagnated early in this setting, magic continued to be studied and expanded upon until it became a science in of itself. Magical devices are common place even for the poor and down trodden. most people can use magic to some degree, and those that can't are easily able to acquire magic devices.
This release would be a high-magic focus. Each subclass would be heavily arcane magic based, with a few magical inventors included. This bestiary would range from the artificially created alchemcial creatures, to hi-tech ancient magic beings from a bygone era
BioPunk:
On par with Cyberpunk settings with corporate overlords, and vast inequality. In a biopunk setting genetic engineering has reached its peak. Gene splicing and even hacking are a mainstay of this setting. Bio-Engineered weapons and violent mutagenic bombs are used on the battlefield. The divide between people and cultures breaks down when one can get easy access to skin pigmentation injections, or where gene therapies exist to change your species down to the genetic level.
The classes of this release may be genetic splices between man and creature, agents using mutagens to give themselves temporary boosts, or escaped genetic experiments. Creatures likewise would be a variety of genetic experiments, ranging from creatures designed for war, highly enhanced individuals, and the wildlife that has carved out a niche in this rapidly evolving world
