Our world is replete with tablet computers, smart phones, social networking, frou-frou coffees, and 24-hour faux news channels, but... Beneath that banal facade, under our mundane everyday lives, past our onerous commute, and outside our boring jobs... Lurking just below the thin veneer of civilization are the government conspiracies we privately agonize over, the implacable evil that we secretly know is real, and all of the truly terrifying monsters under the bed we lie to our children about. Modernity is your opportunity to face your fears deep down in the well of shadows and bring light into the darkness. Or maybe not... Anything in Modernity might be true. The tabloid headlines in Modernity are real... and written in blood. It is up to you... Fight the Darkness. This edition of Modernity is based on Fate Core. It is fully compatible with other Fate Core products. All minor variations are documented in the book.
