Pilgrims Of Misfortune
Pilgrims Of Misfortune
An adventure game of sacred fools.
Greetings, pilgrim. Obviously, you are not content wallowing in mundanity when worlds of adventure await exploration! As you sojourn on the path to holiness, overcoming the faults of the flesh, surely you will find meaning, salvation, the face of God herself-, or at the very least, treasure!
About the game:
Pilgrims of Misfortune is an open world dice game in the folk gaming tradition. One player is the Comptroller who presents an imaginary world to the other players who control Player Characters that interact with it. It takes inspiration from games such as Cairn, The Black Hack, and Dungeons & Dragons: Forbidden Edition. As tradition dictates, it uses random character generation and simple guidelines for adjudicating any uncertainties that arise during otherworldly explorations.
This tome contains the rules for creating characters and playing the game but that is not all! It will also include a mapped portion of another world for these characters to explore, with holy shrines, ancient tombs, and powerful relics to find! But all is not sunshine and smiles, pilgrim! For also in this tome are dangers that await you, things that creep in the dark, things that hunger for blood, things that should not be considered lightly. There are friends and foes to be met in the otherworlds, and they are rarely what they appear to be.
