D&D 5e: Numenera Setting- Beneath the Monolith

The Ninth World Comes to Fifth Edition

They say there have been eight worlds before ours. Eight times the people of this planet built civilizations we can't even imagine now. They spoke to the stars, reshaped the creatures of the world, and mastered form and essence. They built cities and machines that have since crumbled to dust, leaving only their barest remnants.

This is the Ninth World. The people of the prior worlds are gone - scattered, disappeared, or transcended. But traces of their works remain, containing some germ of their original function. To the ignorant, these workings of the ancients are magic. But the wise know otherwise.

The Ninth World is the setting of the award-winning Numenera RPG. Beneath the Monolith brings this critically-acclaimed world to 5E. Explore the ruins of mysterious civilizations. Discover the numenera, ancient technologies so advanced most people believe them to be magic. Encounter creatures weird, fierce, and dangerous. Open doors to new places and alternate dimensions. And, perhaps, unlock mysterious of the prior worlds.
