Product Information

Additionally, Swords Under the Sun features a bestiary that’s comparable to anything found in a Dark Souls game, from broken knights to angelic horrors capable of shapeshifting into more terrifying forms. Whenever the game master is about to introduce a monster, they are encouraged to take time to describe its entrance, what players notice and what it may have once been. Paying such attention to establishing a monster’s presence, beyond its specific abilities, further cements Swords Under the Sun as a Dark Souls-inspired tabletop RPG, considering the video game series’ reverence for its boss monsters. If you have enjoyed Forged in the Dark games in the past – or want to try one out for the first time – why not try Swords Under the Sun? Steamforged Games will correct and reissue manuals for Dark Souls: The Roleplaying Game, whose rulebooks have been in circulation for a month and are reportedly shot through with errors.

Without giving too much away, a tour through some of the major mechanical modifications made to the 5e system to make it that little bit tougher, that little bit more bleak, and that much more DARK SOULS™ . There are plenty of nods to the Dark Souls trilogy in Sword & Board’s handy GM tables for generating adventures, locations and bosses, providing an entertaining remix of Dark Souls’ fondness for ominous-sounding adjectives and quests. Whether you’re seeking four Lord Souls in the Dragon Shrine, linking the fires of the Upper Undead Ruins or ringing the Bell of Awakening in the Duke’s Lands, Sword & Board is about as faithful a Dark Souls tabletop RPG as you’ll find when it comes to capturing the broad strokes of the series.
