The Metabarons Roleplaying Game is a role-playing game set within the mystically inclined and oppressive space opera setting, the Jodoverse created by Alexandro Jodorowsky originally in the form of French language comic books.[1] In the game, players play, not the Metabarons themselves, but common folk in the same universe affected by the Metabarons. Progress in the game depends heavily on adhering to a personal (and in many cases, self-created) honor code, though not one usually based on a simple good/evil or wrong/right dichotomy, but on resisting the Necrodream, representing complacency, laziness and apathy.

Books and supplements[edit]

Only three books were released for this game, though there were plans for several others that never materialized.[citation needed] The game is currently out of print and West End Games seems to no longer support it.[citation needed]
