A modern-day setting where the world has been through an event where monsters seen from RPG fantasy have appeared throughout civilization. These creatures cause chaos and destruction in their wake, and any modern means ineffective towards dealing with these threats. The monsters may come from portals or some form of a dungeon. During the same appearance of these fantastic fiends, humans gain supernatural powers and maybe become connected to an [[RPG Mechanics Verse|RPG system]]. These people are counter the threat where sometimes organizations are made to give a coordinated force to ensure the public’s safety. A modern world where monsters and other fantastic elements exist where hostile creatures are not the only problem. Another outcome can be apocalyptic, where the old society is gone, and now only the strong can survive while even thrive in this new world of fantasy. The tropes may act as a [[Sub-Trope]] to [[Urban Fantasy]], [[Just Before the End]], or [[After the End]]. |
