A: Good question. Here's our answer.
Qi: Living Energy sets the bar above current roleplaying systems and will revolutionize the way you game. The Fastdraw Combat System™ operates in near real-time, with a wide variety of maneuvers and poker-like bidding that allows for strategy instead of random dice rolls. Qi: Living Energy is a dynamic system designed for the new millennium. Online membership offers a growing community with access to other players, the latest information, and the newest tools, eliminating the hassle of finding games and buying endless supplements. It is a system that allows you to create any world you can imagine and still maintain balance within the Multiverse.
Qi: Living Energy adapts to any style, genre, or format using one set of rules for tabletop, online, and live action. The Qi Multiverse can simulate any world or setting with tools that help you create exactly the tone and style you wish. Using the concept of Quantum Reality as a background, it can easily change from historical to fantasy to futuristic. Qi: Living Energy keeps the game fair and opens up all of time and space with fluid translation across any realm of possibility.
What do we mean by Quantum Reality? Brace yourself for a little mind bending. You are the culmination of all your thoughts, dreams, and the choices you have made as a reflection of yourself in time-space. You are an individual aspect of all the possible “you’s” that could have been. Picture time-space as a gigantic mirror. When struck by a choice, the mirror shatters the image and reflects back all possible outcomes, all the different “you’s” that could be created by your actions. Each choice defines your individuality and alters the choices you will encounter in the future, further shattering the mirror. Some choices change not just you, but the world around you, as the mirror is interactive and dynamic. All possible choices, for everyone, everywhere, affect the mirror.
For instance, what if Einstein had continued to study the violin, instead of becoming a physicist? Some choices simply crack the mirror, others strike it with such force that it creates a shockwave that can affect millions of people or even split it into pieces forming whole new realms of possibility. Reach out with your imagination and move across the surface of the mirror into a reflection created by different choices and gaze into the window of a new possibility.
Every choice, possibility, or outcome can have consequences that spider web infinitely through time-space. Fact or fiction, dream or story, all thought and creativity becomes real in a Quantum Reality that is responsive. We push and it pushes back; it reacts to our actions and alters our perceptions in return, yin and yang.
Qi: Living Energy focuses on better role-playing and the fastest gameplay around. With systems for managing reputation, infamy, and personal honor, it inspires character growth and promotes superior roleplay. The combat system is instinctive and nearly instantaneous. There is no waiting for your turn or planning out your move, action scenes occur in near real time. Even large scale combats can be handled quickly using a lightning fast, single-test system.
Qi: Living Energy is a game of action and cinematics. A game where combat works just like it does in the movies, fast and physical. Breaking away from the current model of complicated rules, stacks of supplements, and complex combat systems, it uses the vast background of human experience and imagination and puts the focus back on creating a great roleplaying experience. Qi: Living Energy is the tool that brings your vision to life.
