Wolden - Issue 1

Wolden is an RPG that is rules-light and flavor-heavy. A single, unified mechanic does all the heavy lifting, paving the way for thrilling forest and powerful folk-magic stories.

Warning: Contains kick-ass witches and warlocks who care not for your dogma, bigotry, or patriarchy, and primordial creatures of the forest, just as likely to give you ecstatic dreams as bone-shattering nightmares. And that's just the player characters.

Wolden is a new roleplaying game from the makers of Hypertellurians. This zine details the rules of the game, and the first two of many cults that call Wolden, the heart of the forest, home, in an uneasy alliance.

• Fast, yet strategic resolution mechanic for combat, extended challenges, travel and exploration, and downtime.
• Two cults with their own names, titles, traits, powers, equipment, and carousing tables.
  • The witches, warlocks, and wizards of the Purgis Pact, with their grimoire magic, and four complete grimoires.
  • The faun, fey, and other forest creatures of the Cenacle of Woodwose and Inflorescants, who spill flowers, not blood.
• All the information a GM needs to run Wolden.
• Fully illustrated with hand-drawn art.
• A5 physical zine + PDF, 48 pages
