Edits and Additions


I fixed a months-old upload mistake today where I had uploaded a shitty, old version of The Crumbling Shadow, replacing it, FINALLY, with the edited and updated version of the rules as they stand today. Now you can actually play as the Brighthammer as shown in the uploaded screenshots of the fucking game. *facepalm*

Anyway, I did a lot more than that! I've written a ton of material today, most critically for The Crumbling Shadow I added rules for Special Currencies both in the Playing the Game section of the document and the actual Crumbling Shadow section, a little (not-so-little) section titled Smith's Ore outlines a special meta-currency Lotus Eaters can convert their Drops to that they can then trade with a Wandering Brighthammer (spawned if the Player party does not include a Brighthammer PC) for weapons, items, and other equipment! I think it's a fun little subsystem that I plan to expand on further, and it also adds some much-needed gear customization and character to the game.

I did also add a couple new Tags to the document, not a ton yet, but I have plans to build a lot more depth into the system because there's another whole thing I'm going to get into eventually involving the Other Passages in the Oubliette, a sort of Lotus Eater Chalice Dungeons system where the Players can embark on completely randomized Breaches with zero narrative consequence but all sorts of zany Nightmares to fight and loot to gather by finding and using Keys of Passage. But we'll get there a LONG time from now.

I ALSO wrote up The Accursed Manor's first Bearer of Oblivion, I'm sorry it took me so goddamn long, so look for that in another quick update here in a few moments.
