Beginning with the Cryptic Alliances, Gamma World presents a

game with a flavor uniquely its own. These alliances are groups of be-
ings (rarely all human) that roam the world trying to put their ideals
into practice. They can be found in any given batch of beings secretly
spying or trying to manipulate the masses. These groups range from the
“Knights of Genetic Purity”, who seek to destroy all humanoid muta-
tions to the “Zoopremisists”, who believe that the time has come for
the “beasts” to rule the world.
Realizing that the creatures of MA didn’t really have enough hit
dice for their environment, all of the creatures created were supplied
with greater hit dice. A large number of these were designed to become
effective player and non-player characters for the world. These are al-
phabetized from the android, who comes in 3 types, to the Zeeth that is
a blade of purple grass that teleports its seeds into bodies.

snapped, as the fangs pierced, as the claws ripped, as unfeeling metal
crushed, as pain mercifully faded into the final darkness; the remem-
brance of the sweet, sweet life so few short years ago.
The years that followed, the Black Years, were in some respects
easier for the survivors, and in some respects more difficult. Each
succeeding generation found itself more adapted to its environment, both
in a physical sense and with the information gained painfully by their
forebearers about the world around them. The more hazardous area of
the world were shunned, and the survivors had begun to join in small
groups, working towards their common goal of survival. Working thus,
these small groups found they no longer needed to devote their entire
energies towards survival exclusively. Slowly at first, trade and barter
between groups of survivors was established. Religions reformed —
