Description
DRAGONBANE: CORE RULEBOOK - Dragonbane is a classic fantasy tabletop roleplaying game full of magic, mystery, and adventure. This book includes fast and effective D20-based game rules for character creation, skills, combat, magic, and travel, and the introductory adventure The Castle of the Robber Knight. This is a game with room for laughs at the table, while still offering brutal challenges for the adventurers. We call this playstyle “mirth and mayhem roleplaying” – great for long campaigns, but also perfect for a one-shot. Dragonbane comes with all of the fantastical creatures that you'd expect plus a few more – not least the duck-like mallards! The game uses a skill-based D20 system that is very easy for new players to learn. Each skill is rated from 1 to 18, and the player needs to roll equal to or lower than the skill level to succeed. That's right – in this game you want to roll low. Rolling a natural 1 is called rolling a dragon, and triggers powerful special effects. In the oldest times, the world was ruled by dragons and demons. They were the primordial forces through which the world and its primeval matter was formed. They were opposing principles that made the world complete. Law and order versus chaos and madness. Dragons versus demons.
