Troupe: Doomsday

A great Gloom is come: the fences between worlds has faltered— faerie hosts from far Yonderlands sally forth with force, weaving rack and ruin in their wake; while diminished lords dawdle in despondent decadence, hem their sovereignties in with stone and steel, or succumb to war’s distractions over small-minded claims. It is to you to defend what you love, drive back would-be subjugators, or find profit in these troubled times.

Troupe: Doomsday is a compact rules-light tabletop roleplaying system for play within a troubled Arthurian world, divided, and harried by in-roads from Faerie.  It uses a single mechanic, a six-sided die (d6) dice pool, for adjudicating all challenges Characters may face on their adventures.

The player rules for Doomsday fit on one letter-sized page with equipment, pre-made kits, and more, on the reverse page.

The referee rules are organized in a separate document which also consists of a letter-sized page, the front with general rules and guidance and the reverse side with information on the creatures of the world and a short sample bestiary.

A character sheet holds all the player-character details and makes it easy to track strain.

🆕Revamped player's guide!

I've taken down the one-pagers and character sheet because I need to redesign them to go with the tweaked and streamlined new version of the rules. I also split out the beginning classes into a standalone document called the Saga of New Beginnings.

Read the online version of the rules (mostly complete)!
