Righteous Blood, Ruthless Blades is a roleplaying game of dark
adventure and heroic thrills inspired primarily by the wuxia
stories of Gu Long. Players assume the roles of eccentric heroes
who solve mysteries, avenge misdeeds, uphold justice, and
demonstrate profound mastery of the martial arts. Character
creation is designed to produce fleshed-out, potent individuals who
can follow several paths, including those of the physician, beggar,
assassin, thief, soldier, bandit, and more. These characters
inhabit a unique martial world, or Jianghu, set in a romanticized
ancient China. The towns, temples, and inns the characters can
visit, and the sects and factions with whom they interact, will
bring their own character to the game and provide a host of
opportunities - and threats. The game is based on a simple
ten-sided dice pool mechanic, loosely modeled on the one found in
Wandering Heroes of Ogre Gate, and play is designed to be gritty,
suspenseful, and fast, so the focus remains on solving mysteries
and roleplaying your character. When combat does arise, it is
consequential and swift, and often resolved in a single role of the
dice. This rulebook includes a sample martial world and a starting
adventure, as well as guidelines for games masters looking to run
wuxia games and create their own unique Jianghu, rife with martial
experts, sects, and mysterious locations.

After thick-billed murre Akpa emerges from his egg, high on an
Arctic cliff, he soon learns that he must embark on a long
migration before he is even able to fly. Flinging himself into the
icy water with his father to guide him, Akpa must swim 1,000
kilometres of his journey south before he is able to finally fly
the final leg of his journey. Adult male murres are also unable to
fly during this time of the year, due to their changing feathers,
so father and son must navigate south on the choppy ocean waves,
meeting new and unfamiliar creatures along the way.

Earth, the place where YOU live, is doomed! Come check out this
sci-fi comedy from Chip Zdarsky (SEX CRIMINALS) and Kagan McLeod
