Unleash Your Destiny
In the shadowed alleys of forgotten cities, where ancient runes whisper and blood mages lurk, lies the realm of the Mage Hunter. This complete rulebook, penned by the venerable Guy Sclanders, opens the gateway to a tabletop roleplaying experience like no other.
Packed with expert advice from Guy Sclanders, creator of the popular YouTube series How to be a Great GM, whether you are a beginner just starting to play roleplaying games or an old salt you will have all you need.
The book features a dynamic character creation system allowing players to create their own characters with amazing abilities. Choose from 8 disciplines (11 if you allow for Blood Mages) and guide your characters journey to becoming an adventurer. Will you be a mage slinging powerful spells? A sword master? Or perhaps you’ll adopt the ‘new’ technology of flint-lock muskets and become a master of the bullet?
Magic is especially important to the game and the mechanics presented here allow players and Game Masters to create their own magical spells or to enhance the existing spells, twisting and sculpting them to their very hearts content.
As a diceless system, it is a very easy system to learn and a fun one to play. Tension arises from the Action Pool economy that is the backbone of the game. Random chaos is created by the choices of the players and the GM, and the adventure is never dull (there is even advice on how to make sure this doesn’t ever happen)!
