Blackthorn is a roleplaying game designed to collaboratively tell pulp horror stories where characters survive or die at the hands of supernatural crisis. Urgency ramps quickly and paces in and out of high-tension moments. The mechanics support lethal one shots where players expect to control multiple characters in order to drive forward surprising horror narratives.
Easy-to-learn rules that reinforce escalating horror scenarios and amp up urgency.
Player-facing rolls, quick character creation, and exciting combat rules with a horror-centric wounds system.
Quick character creation featuring classless and statless characters that gain skills and attributes from the occupation, background, pastime, faults, and drives.
Player and GM principles that support lethal and collaborative storytelling.
A complete one shot in the back of the zine so you can jump straight into play.
