The galley Prudence is bound in the ice of a sudden freeze that swept across Mag Zay. The galley is about fourteen hours walk away from the shore of the Isle of Vines. It is unknown when the ice will thaw, but certainly longer than a day given its present thickness. The Captain has ordered you to drag a lifeboat across the ice to the island and acquire provisions - the ship was not stocked for an interminable voyage.

You may face Trolls, Wyverns, Kraken, and Mag knows what more.

Listening to a Vanished God - Warrior, Rogue & Mage edition

The setting and the rules are "Listening to a Vanished God (WR&M edition" - iykyk.

Adventure seed: your galley is frozen fast by a sudden cold snap in transit between Magog and Isle of Vines. There's no telling when the Mag Zay will thaw, but not any time soon when the ice is this thick. The Captain directs you to set forth across the ice with a lifeboat to get supplies. It's only about a fourteen hour walk to the island.

Warrior Rogue and Mage is my very favorite system. Lets play with armor as hit points and armor as Damage Reduction. I will play Guts. It will be glorious.

Well, if it's going to be glorious, what more could an adventurer ask for?  And a walk up of the frozen sea sounds as casual as day in the park. Perhaps we'll find a tasty critter on the way and not have to march the whole 14 hours to the island.

Hunting and eating eldritch horrors will make for a special experience

I hear that fried calamari is a tasty delicacy, but it has been known to give one unsettling dreams.

Looks promising, although I do not know anything about this game system.

Hey Jomsviking,
Thanks for the URL to the rule set. The rules are just how I like them light and with enough creativity to make them interesting.

Check out armor as damage reduction and armor as hit points optional rules in The Art of Combat.

A knight, in full plate, is terrifyingly effective.
Jun 5, 2024 1:53 pm
Yes. with this setting we're doing Precise Hit + Armor as Damage Reduction.

Another thing is initiative in descending order of ROGue score.

I'm new to the system, but it sounds very interesting. If there's still room, I'd like to join.

Sounds good. We can work you in when the others have returned to the ship. That should be fairly soon!
