Beyond ordinary sight
The Path: Awoken is an original fantasy role-playing project built around awakening to a spiritual reality hidden beneath everyday life. The Yaqats can perceive this unseen world. What they discover brings questions of virtue, corruption, protection, and power into the decisions made at the table.
The project was also developed under the name Ascend or Descent. Its central concern is the path a character takes—not simply what power they gain, but what that power means and what it may cost them.
Power and consequence
The setting introduces Nalaas, associated with virtue and protection, and Baraats, associated with corruption and power. These contrasting forces place choices about power and protection at the heart of the setting.
Earth, the neutral Echo, and five ethereal worlds form the broader setting. Together, they provide the background for a game concerned with awakening, temptation, and the consequences of a character’s choices.
