There is no force in this world more malevolent than gnomes that can so effectively strike fear, disgust, and hatred into the heart of any decent human being. Those of weak constitution might be shocked by the contents of this book, and some might believe that such a game should not be available to children for purchase, lecture, or especially play. Despite what weve been told, gnomes are not cute or cuddly. This pro-gnomish propaganda is meant to lure unsuspecting young innocents to their doom In light of that, this book is no mere game. It is a low-cost investment that can truly save your life. GnomeMurdered is a game that is hopefully entertaining in the same way that telling scary stories, reading horror novels, or watching scary movies can be entertaining. But GnomeMurdered is also meant to be informative, spreading the truth about those vile little beasts. Above all, GnomeMurdered is an avant-garde, rules-lite game meant to be truly innovative in a way no game has ever been before. The actual required rules encompass less than a page, but the myriad of options allow you to think outside the box. For instance, who needs dice -- use a coin, playing cards, physical contest, mental contest, narrative, or therapy in their stead. Scale the game with 4 levels of power. Learn how the gnomes think and plan their attacks by incorporating their styles of assassination, objects that can be looted from them, and the most-dreaded mutations that plague men who get too close. Round that out with 5 ready-to-play scenarios and dont forget about the The Great GnomeMurdered Flowchart. All incidents, situations, and persons portrayed within this book are fiction, and any similarities without satirical intent are strictly coincidental. This excludes gnomes; they are real and a serious threat.

Roleplaying games evolved their own version of storytelling by piecing together a tale based on the outcome of dice rolls and player choices. Story Engine breathes new life into this multi-authored game format, infusing it with the fluidity of oral tradition while liberating it from the confines of turn-based mechanics. Create characters using adjectives and phrases. Like novels, the different elements of a character all contribute to the story -- even flaws and foibles. Collaborate to tell a story of the characters. Pool resources to work as a group to solve conflicts. Narrate the outcome of scenes based on success. This updated 2011 edition of the original ground-breaking Story Engine roleplaying game features: Complete rules, plus introductory Story Bones™ rules Optional rules for customizing the system Extensive advice on running games Three plug-ins for running different genres: Six Guns & Whiskey™ (Wild West), In the 'Zone™ (Sci-Fi), and Of Legend™ (Fantasy) Plug-in for use with the Maelstrom Storytelling™ world Two adventures

This is a reprinted edition of the classic 1994 world book for the MasterBook roleplaying game system. Welcome to the world of Fantasy Noir. It's a mean old world out there. The sorcerer upstairs conjures too loud; the guy down the hall drinks blood from a six-pack; that stiff you left in the alley is up and walking around. If you're lucky, the Guild will pay you for tonight's work; if you're not, you're going home in a box... a small box. Bloodshadows is a roleplaying game setting that combines pulp adventure with dark fantasy. Tough detectives in weathered trench-coats swap biting comments with vampires in evening gowns. Humans walk down dark streets side by side with demonic breeds and long-dead ghouls. And death -- or Undeath -- waits around the corner... Go outside the cities and discover the terrors of the Wilderness. Even the most powerful shapeshifter or sorcerer fears what waits in the ruins... Your weapons on the world of Marl are magic and technology -- but neither replaces a good head on your shoulders. And you'll have to work to keep it there. You must have MasterBook to play this game.
