A new TTRPG created by Chaosium let’s players adventure in a historical Arthurian Britain. Titled Pendragon, this month’s release includes the Starter Set, the Core Rulebook, and a campaign called The Grey Knight.
The TTRPG developers Chaosium Inc are known for exceptional games such as Call of Cthulhu, RuneQuest, and 7th Sea. Pendragon is a roleplay-focused game immersing players fully in this setting. The Core Rulebook includes a comprehensive look at England during the time of King Arthur to help game masters and players, and specifically talks about the role of knights and nobility. The Core Rulebook explains key processes in this TTRPG such as Traits and Passions, Skills, Honor and Glory, Favors, as well as combat, injury, and recovery mechanics.
Pendragon is a world of brutal medieval realism, that focuses on the emotional impact of play, and strives to make the players feel as invested, loving, and frightened about their characters as their characters themselves would feel. Pendragon is a game that walks a fine line between lethal reality, and the idealism of a visionary life dedicated to the highest values. – Chaosium Inc press release
Players may seek to fight injustice, protect the innocent, and go on quests to rid the world of villains. Or they may choose to be ruthless, manipulating others and striking down any who would stand in their way.
Along with the Core Rulebook is the release of The Grey Knight campaign. This adventure allows players to challenge Death’s Companion, seeking out a key treasure that will enable this foe to be defeated.
