Tequendria
TEQUENDRIA is a fantastical roleplaying game inspired by the works
of Lord Dunsany, the grandfather of modern fantasy. In this game you may
become a grim Gravekeeper of Zum, a soul-weilding Icur sorceror or even
an artificial Doomgaunt. Travel the wilds of Yann where the winter will
bite as fiercly as the wolves, or delve in to the ancient Pits of Snood
and face the demons within. Magic coarses through the veins of
Tequendria, meaning every creature is somewhat capable of casting
spells. Above the clouds of the world adventurers can take to their
aether in mighty vessels, visiting strange alien worlds like Dim Carcosa
and the Snurk Pits of the Bounds of Leng.
- Play as 20 different weird and wonderful archetypes (roll them randomly if you like)
- Everyone can cast spells
- Setting information for the world of Tequendria
- A bestiary of deadly creatures
- A selection of fiction by Lord Dunsany
Astounding Interplanetary Adventures
It's rayguns,
aliens and swashbuckling amongst the stars! Astounding Interplanetary
Adventures is a minimalist game of pulp sci-fi inspired by serials like
Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers. Using the rules-lite system introduced in In Darkest Warrens,
these few pages have everything you need to play a fun romp through
space, including aliens, rocket ships and setting information.
All you need is some friends, some six-sides dice and an imagination to begin your life of heroism. Perhaps you want to be a daring pilot, a brave soldier or even a scientist who can build robots to help you out! With AIA it's quick and easy to get to the table and start playing.
What's included:
