d20 Past is a d20 based role-playing game released by Wizards of the Coast in 2005. It was meant to be a supplement to d20 Modern, providing framework and new rules for campaigns based on historical events from the Renaissance to World War II,[1] including new character options and rules for early modern firearms. It begins with an exploration of the historical period between 1450 and 1950, then provides rules for creating characters and campaigns that blend realism and fantasy. d20 Past also presents alternative campaign models, along with all the rules needed to play swashbuckling pirate adventures, Victorian horror investigations, thrilling Pulp Era escapades, and more, including three ready-to-play campaign modules.[2]
