Description
Set in the psychedelic archipelago world of Jor, Runemaker is a d12 base system that runs on small numbers, customizable Skills, and Stats made to describe how characters learn and grow as people – not just how they fare in combat. All against the backdrop of a memorable setting full of whimsy, intrigue, and many verities of peril. The Quick Start Guide gives you everything you need to make a new character in Runemaker. For content beyond first level play, pick up a copy of the Core Game Guide.
