EMBARK
A downloadable game
EMBARK is a heroic fantasy TTRPG inspired by the OSR with my own personal style and likes built in.
It uses a universal d12 based resolution mechanic, and has classic OSR systems like morale, reactions, item slots, and focus on rulings over rules.
Player characters start a little more powerful than one might expect from an OSR game, but stay at a mid-level power throughout their career. This ensures first level characters won't die in a single hit, but keeps the dangers of low level play always present.
WHAT TO EXPECT
- Fast paced zone based combat
- Simple and intuitive class system
- Heroic, yet grounded adventures
- Simple dice based spell system
- Easily hackable system licensed under Creative Commons CC BY 4.0
