Swords of the Serpentine: The Sin Drinker RPG One-Shot

About this experience

The City Watch isn't paid to handle the monstrosities that hunt their prey in the night.

Which is why Commander Teldi has hired you to look into the two murders that have happened at the Upper Docks...

This is a $10 One-Shot with your intrepid Gamemaster Mark K. (Pathfinder, etc.)

No prior experience is required - pre-generated character sheets will be available!

Swords of the Serpentine is a sword & sorcery game of daring heroism, sly politics, and bloody savagery, set in a fantasy city rife with skullduggery and death.

The rules adapt the GUMSHOE investigative roleplaying system to create a fantasy RPG with a focus on high-action roleplaying and investigation inspired by the stories of Fritz Leiber, Terry Pratchett, Robert E. Howard, and others.

Swords of the Serpentine offers:

• A fantasy city of mystery and magic inspired by Lankhmar and Ankh-Morpork
  
  
• Tools for fast and effective character creation
  
  
• A customized combat system that opens the door for cinematic, heroic battles
  
  
• Social combat that targets your enemy’s morale, letting you defeat some foes through wit, guile, and threats
  
  
• Sorcery that allows you to rip apart a tower with the flick of a hand—but are you willing to pay the price in corruption to body and soul?
  
  
• Powerful allegiances that give you influence in one or more factions across the city, but which can earn you equally powerful enemies…
  
  
• Streamlined abilities that power four distinct types of heroes, and which you can mix-and-match across professions to customize your character further
  
  
• Gameplay and rules mechanics that encourage players to help build the world they’re adventuring in
  
  
• Rules for death curses, true names, alchemy, sorcerous items, ghostly possession, political manipulation, and more!
