Dead Reign™ the Zombie Apocalypse™ ______________________________________________________________________ Warning! Horror, Violence, Zombies & the Supernatural The fictional world of Dead Reign™ contains subject matter that deals with the supernatural, death cults, zombies, conspiracy theories, the paranormal, magic, war and extreme violence. The setting is our modern world taken over by the walking dead – zombies. Hideous animated corpses that feed upon the living. The heroes are ordinary people who battle for their own survival and to re- claim the world from the dead. Human civilization has collapsed, our cities and towns are infested with zombies, madmen and cultists. Some parents may find the subject matter, violence, magic and supernatural elements of the game in- appropriate for young readers/players. Furthermore, the realistic manner in which the fictional horror material is presented may be disturbing for some young readers. WE STRONGLY SUGGEST PARENTAL DISCRETION. Please note that none of us at Palladium Books® condone or encourage the occult, the practice of magic, the use of drugs, vigilantism or violence. ______________________________________________________________________ Sample file Dead Reign™ is a complete role-playing game. 1 Dedications Thanks to Hilden, for letting me help get his dream project off the ground and into print, and to Kevin Siembieda, for giving me this opportunity to be published.

This one is for you. – Kevin Siembieda, 2008 The cover,byE.M. Gist, depicts zombies converging on a husband and wife being pulled apart, and about to be slain.
