Gather round one and all, clutch your cloak tight lest you shiver at this icy cold tale. Our story begins in the Dragon Mountains with our heroes confidently striding through the snow unaware of what lays.....Underneath the Ice. "Evil is evil. Lesser, greater, middling… Makes no difference. The degree is arbitrary. The definition’s blurred. If I’m to choose between one evil and another… I’d rather not choose at all" - Geralt of Rivia Hello there, my name is Bard and I wish to run a high quality game of the Witcher RPG. I'm a huge fan of both the books and the games, with many years of experience as a game master in multiple systems. We will be playing through the published official adventurers from the book 'A Book Of Tales', which is 6 loosely connected adventures which will take about 1-2 sessions each. However, if you join this campaign as a group, you may pick either a custom story of your choosing or a different published adventure. On top of that, the campaign will be fully mapped out with custom high quality battle and exploration maps for extra immersion. Here is a small selection from previous campaigns and the kind of dedication to immersion you can expect from this campaign:  The world of the Witcher is dark and features adult themes and so will this game to authentically portray the dark fantasy world of Andrzej Sapkowski. Combat in this system can be quick and violent, with players encouraged to seek every advantage in combat or to avoid it entirely with charm, stealth or speed. It has a dynamic character creation which will allow in-depth character with history and ties to the world, each with a profession that offers something unique to the game. Bard: Charismatic entertainers who can befriend anyone, inculcate themselves into societies and worm their way into their opponent's minds. Craftsman: Talented artisans who are skilled not only in crafting weapons and armour but also craft alchemical concoctions and can make augmentations to weapons on the battle field. Criminal: Smooth operators who can crack any safe, take a man's life with no witnesses and rally gangs around themselves. Doctor: Calculating physicians who are trained in field surgery allowing them to treat wounds with double the efficiency, or cause grievous wounds with their anatomical knowledge. Mage: Scheming politicians and manipulators, removed from power and now using their often earth shaking power to escape persecution and get revenge. Man at Arms: Grizzled warriors with ages of combat experience who can calculate their opponent's moves, take down targets from extreme range and unleash devastating attacks. Merchant: Canny salesmen who know the power of coin. They can use their knowledge of product to find vulnerabilities in armour and track down cheap suppliers and when need be they can acquire favours & allies to break the competition. Priest: Men and women of the Gods who use ancient blood rituals to commune with nature, heal the sick and injure or hunt down heathens and burn them with holy fire. Witcher: Restricted to those with the proper mutations, Witchers are consummate monster hunters who dabble in mutagenic potions, simple field magic and incredibly deadly swordplay. Noble: The nobility and knights, who rule over lands, have servants and live the upper class life. If you're new to the system or even RPGs in general, full support will be provided to you to create your character and weave it into the Witcher universe.
