The Five Factions
What if five factions were steering society in a race to define the future of humanity? What if each of these castes had a distinct vision for what humanity would become? Each believes their vision will result in humanity's salvation - at least, how they define it.
The Traditionalists
This faction wants to keep our world from changing beyond recognition. How can they keep the elites from dominating the common people? Can they stop new technologies from destroying our way of life? Is it too late to turn back the clock and rediscover what makes us human?
The Ecclesia
What if there was a secret society more powerful than any country or corporation? Dedicated to “guiding” humanity to the best possible future. How would they determine what’s best for all of us? What could they do to make that future real? How would they choose members? Would you join?
The Off-Worlders
The Off Worlders believe that the future of humanity does not reside on Earth but in the stars. The Earth is a doomed planet, and trying to save it is pointless. The only rational approach for the continuation of the human race is to push the boundaries of space exploration and find new homes. Will you join them on their interstellar journey?
The Paradisians
The Paradisians operate on the belief that that we have the technology and the processes to create a sustainable society right now. It’s time that we got organized and changed the world because no one is going to make the world better but us. Will you join them in their fight to save the planet?
25 Sub-faction cards
In the Future Now Universe, five factions fight over who controls humanity's future. Each believes their vision will result in humanity's salvation - at least how they define it. However, these factions are far from one united monolithic group. Each faction comprises five sub-factions.
The Transhumanists
The Transhumanists are a diffuse faction with varying ideologies who all ultimately believe in one thing: the future of the human race does not exist in the human form. For "humanity" to survive it will need to become an altogether different species. The machines will save us, because we will be the machines. Will you join them in taking the next step up the evolutionary ladder?
