Set off on an adventure to become legend! 

Hero is a 46-page rulebook presenting a system based on Trophy Gold for classical, high fantasy roleplaying. The system is designed for use with modules and adventures from other fantasy roleplaying games, but with a procedure and set of mechanics and rules that prioritize narrative and support storytelling in the style of a writers' room. Even with a focus on story, the system encourages a style of old school play that rewards clever player thinking and punishes characters for charging in to situations unprepared.

Inside this rulebook you'll find: 

  • An implied setting of magic, monsters, and gods communicated through character choices and mechanics.
  • A resolution system that highlights narratively interesting moments, challenges characters, and opens up exciting, storytelling possibilities for players.
  • Quick character creation that lets you jump into play in less than 30 minutes.
  • Guidance for the GM in adapting modules and adventures designed for other systems.
  • A suite of optional, modular rules that GMs can select from to personalize their games for their players.

Currently available is a PDF specially formatted to be printed at-home as a DIY zine. A digital-first file will be added at a later date.
