Children of the Sun is a role-playing game created by the now defunct Misguided Games, Inc. in 2002. Set on Krace, an island of giant, supernaturally tough trees, it was part of a generation of steampunk settings that appeared beginning in the late 1990s (although the creator characterized the game as "Dieselpunk"). Most notable about the game was its original Token System, which allowed the player to use a token to determine initiative and to interrupt other character's turns.
