Obelisk – Horror-Fantasy Roleplaying – Kickstarter
We received some news on an upcoming Kickstarter for a new RPG. Check it out:
Obelisk is a dark, low fantasy system that uses a D6 dice pool resolution mechanic. Set in a baroque era fictional continent, magic is rare and few people have the access to cast spells, but those who do are rightfully feared. Around every corner lurks eldritch abominations that can break the minds of weaker men. Courageous warriors will fight against these agents of chaos all the while trying to keep their bodies and minds intact. But it may be all for naught, as the world is on a timer and unless a foolhardy band of heroes can unlock the truth of their god and his insane herald can they hope to save the world from annihilation.
Features:
- 100+ pages, including the full rules and character creation to get you playing
- An easy-to-pick-up D6 pool system – roll up to 8 six-sided dice and count “Successes.”
- 5 classes: Play as a battle-hardened Warrior, a sly Blackguard, a sharp-shooting musketeer, a zealous Disciple, or a spell-wielding Arcane Scholar
- A full bestiary featuring dozens of grisly foes to do battle with
- Full spells and rituals list – Features dozens of spells and rituals for your party to learn on their adventures
- Game Master section with optional rules and advice for aspiring GMs
- A detailed and expansive original setting – Set on the continent of Eurlithis, explore 6 nations and its various factions, or delve below ground to an expansive underground civilization of Get-Sathua.
Obelisk is coming soon to Kickstarter. See the Kickstarter preview page HERE.
