The Lost Bay comes to life!!!
Hey folks, in the next few weeks I'll be launching the crowdfunding campaign for The Lost Bay, a dark fantasy tabletop RPG set in 199X.
I've been working on it for years, and thanks to the feedback and support of the numerous folks who played the early access version, the game is now ripe to go to print.
But what is it exactly?
The Lost Bay is a dark fantasy tabletop RPG. It’s set in alternate 199X. The Lost Bay is also the name of the game setting, a small coastal suburb, both familiar and uncanny, where the mundane and the magical mix inextricably. Living Saints, rituals, blood curses are part of the characters’ daily life alongside console games, VHS tapes, and phone booths.
The Lost Bay is a set of three booklets. It contains everything you need to play: character creation, core rules, advanced tips and toolkits, detailed setting and bestiary.
The cool thing is that you get to play powerful characters, roaming in a weird and at times dark world.
The system in a nutshell
Three attributes, and a d6 dice pool for all your Action Rolls or Saves.
One resource to fuel your Powers.
Powers always succeed but can get you a Scar.
Scars can hurt you, make you more powerful, or change you. They are specific to each Vibe.
If you get all the Scars and you manage to survive them, you become a Living Saint, an immortal roaming the Bay. YOU become the Lore of the Bay.
What’s in the books?
User Guide: character creation and core rules, ten playable classes, three post-death special classes, custom character growth, Scar tables.
GM Guide: tips and toolkits, advanced rules, adventure building frameworks, examples and designer commentary.
Travel guide: extensive ready to use setting, exploration procedures, pre-gen point-crawls, six full-fledged districts featuring: locations, NPCs, Bosses, complications, rumors, treasures, adventure seeds.
