Primrose - Core Book
A downloadable Roleplaying Game
Primrose is a tabletop roleplaying game set within the Primrose Territories: a small peninsula disconnected geographically from the wider world by a dangerous and unforgiving mountain range.
Within the Terrirtoies small communities have formed by various woodland critters known as Inhabitants: Mice, Squirrels, Hares, Moles, Badgers, Rats and Weasels have built their homes within the shrouded confines of dens, hollows, caves and caverns. Most are naïve and unaware of the pending threats from beyond the mountains.
Inspired by many works such as Brian Jacques (Redwall) and David Petersen (Mouse Guard); this free 200+ page core book contains all the required materials for a campaign within Primrose.
Features:
- D10 dice pool system built from the ground up.
- With no map of Primrose being the same, players will slowly fill a blank map with locations they uncover over their campaigns - discovering mysterious landmarks, massive communities and dangerous dens.
- Produce hearty meals or deadly poisons foraged from forests or powerful tools with simple materials such as wood, amber, seashells or bones!
- Explore the world and fight against the odds! Fight through inclement weather, sneaking past wandering beasts and foiling villainous plots!
- Detailed rules emulating how creatures of different shapes and sizes meaningfully interact with the world around them!
- 7 different Inhabitants to play and interact with: from the tiny common Mouse to the monolithic Badger.
- Game Masters have a variety of tools to generate holidays, Communities, and encounters.
- Inhabitants beautifully illustrated by Alisha Giroux (https://twitter.com/asmeesh)
