Product History
d20 Past (2005), by James Wyatt and Gwendolyn F.M. Kestrel, is a setting supplement for the d20 Modern roleplaying game. It was published in March 2005.
Continuing d20 Modern. d20 Past continued in the footsteps of d20 Future (2004) by expanding the setting of the d20 Modern Roleplaying Game (2002). However, where d20 Future went forward, d20 Past instead went back.
Some players expected a supplement spanning Earth's entire history, but d20 Past instead stays within the Modern world: it covers the period from the Renaissance to World War II, with most of its attention focused from 1667-1936.
D&D and the Past World. This was not D&D's first foray into recent history.
- HR4: A Mighty Fortress Campaign Sourcebook (1992) was the first major release to move D&D up into the modern-day, with its focus on the Elizabethan Era.
- Masque of the Red Death and Other Tales (1994) then advanced the timeline even further by moving the Ravenloft (1990, 1994) setting into the Victorian Age of Gothic Earth.
Meanwhile, TSR also published several other RPGs in this time period:
- Boot Hill (1975) was TSR's classic western RPG.
- Gangbusters (1982) imagined a pulp 1920s setting.
- The Adventures of Indiana Jones (1984) moved into the tail end of the d20 Past era with its WWII adventures.
- Finally, AM2: "For Faerie, Queen, & Country" (1993) was TSR's only standalone RPG to detail a fantasy-tinged past. Using the Amazing Engine (1993) system, it imagined an 1870s Victorian England touched by faerie.
