WELCOME TO GRIM & PERILOUS GAMING
Featured on Forbes.com, ranked one of the best-selling fantasy tabletop
role-playing games at DriveThruRPG, and having sold over 90,000 copies
worldwide, ZWEIHÄNDER Grim & Perilous RPG is a bloodier, grimmer, and
grittier version of classical tabletop role-playing games. This revised
edition is published in celebration with Andrews McMeel Publishing and
features a refreshed layout, new artwork, rules clarifications, color
plates by Dejan Mandic, and errata.
ZWEIHÄNDER Grim & Perilous RPG is a game where your characters will:
- Live in a gritty, "realistic" fantasy world
- Make morally grey decisions & enact vicious reprisals
- Uncover insidious plots & political intrigue
- Take part in heart-pumping chase scenes
- Venture into the wilderness & survive its perils
- Desperately fight in clandestine & open field combat
- Defend themselves from injuries, madness, & mutations
- Encounter sanity-blasting creatures & their minions
Using the Powered By ZWEIHÄNDER d100 game engine, you will create grim
characters, write perilous adventures, and build your own low fantasy &
dark fantasy campaigns. These rules are a perfect fit for Renaissance
and medieval-styled adventures, too. You can also use this book to
create your own home-brewed worlds, whether inspired by the works of
Andrzej Sapkowski's The Witcher, George R.R. Martin's Game of
Thrones, Glen Cook's Black Company, Myke Cole's The Armored Saint,
Robert E. Howard's Solomon Kane, Scott Lynch's Gentlemen Bastard
series, or other "grimdark"-inspired media.
This all-in-one game includes most of what you need to play: a character
creation guide, game mastery rules, and a bestiary brimming with
creatures both fair & foul. All that's left are a few friends, pencils,
and a handful of dice.
ZWEIHÄNDER Grim & Perilous RPG awaits, and the fate of your grim &
perilous tale hangs in the balance!
