3d6 magic2d4 + Curse5d8 magicA turn-based dungeon crawler where every blow, every spell, every breath is decided by the dice. The dungeon does not forget. The dice do not lie.
There is a legend, whispered by torchlight in the broken keeps of Vale, that fortune itself was once a prisoner. Caged in twenty-sided iron, hidden in the bowels of Mount Hollow. Six centuries it slept. Then, in the dead of winter, the seal cracked.
Now the dungeons stir. The dead remember the names of the living. Old hexes leak through the stone like smoke. And four travelers — a witch, a knight, a thief, and a priest who has forgotten his god — must descend together.
— from the Warden's Ledger, Vol. III"The wager is the prayer. The roll is the answer. The number is the god."
Maps, factions, the bestiary, and the full ledger of fallen kingdoms await in the World & Heroes archive.
Strike with steel or sorcery. 1d20 + bonus against the foe's AC. A natural 20 is a critical — and the dungeon takes notice.
Each weapon and spell carries its own dice — 2d6 for a longsword, 3d8 for a fireball. Modifiers stack with stat and curse alike.
Plate turns aside the blade. Wards turn aside the flame. Two layers — AC for the body, MR for the soul.
When you fall, the dungeon offers one final wager. Roll to rise, or roll to rest. Permadeath is not a punishment — it is a consequence with witnesses.
"Drag a hero into a slot. The bell rings thrice. Three may pass."
"I traded my name for the spell. I would not trade it back."
3d6 magic2d4 + Curse5d8 magicMira's older sister Senna was killed by a man the courts could not touch — his cousin sat the bench. The Ashwell family went to the thing in the Hollowmere well, and Mira traded her surname for one spell, cast once, on Halver Crale.
The hex did not unravel after the kill. She has been Mira Ashwhisper for nine years, and she suspects the thing in the well winters in the Crypt. She is going down to ask for a refund.
