Spellburn and Battlescars

Gold and Glory, Marked by the Odd.

Spellburn and Battlescars is a Sword & Sorcery TTRPG where you play foolhardy adventurers who delve into mysterious places for wealth. With both classical conventions and modern sensibilities, it features:

• Streamlined character creation that uses randomness but still leave choices to be made by the players.
• Fast and decisive combat, delivering high action while still keeping the constant risk of death.
• Dangerous and unpredictable magic, where the next spell can completely change your character.

Modularity

This release is what we're calling the "Player's Guide" for Spellburn and Battlescars, containing it's core rules — basically everything a group needs to start playing. It will be followed by a "Game Master's Handbook", which will contain extra rules, procedures and tools to help the GM create and run games. 

Our plan is to eventually build a series of small releases of extra content that you can plug and unplug to your game as needed.
