Heart & Glory

This game is no longer in development. Feel free to rework it and resue its ideas. Thank you for your understanding.

Heart & Glory is a tabletop roleplaying game about adventures in a fantasy world.

Through play, you will experience encounters with fantastic creatures, powerful sorcery and heroic battles. You will explore strange and magical lands, gloomy dungeons and underground caves, as well as magnificent cities. You’ll be facing powerful foes and dangerous monsters while searching for gold and glory. The heroes you portray will take risks to gain fame, power and wealth, and you'll play to find out how their story unravels.

The game is designed to be modular and easily extended with additional rules and various game settings and modules.

To play the game, you will need 3-5 players, one of which will be the Game Moderator (GM). You need a set of five standard dice, preferably one set for every player, but for comfortable play, each player should have their own set. The materials in this game contain the Core Rules, a character sheet, and a party sheet. There are also Reference Sheets so you can quickly look up rules .

This game is heavily influenced by the roleplaying game Blades in the Dark. The game is still work in progress. At present, familiarity with BitD is recommended to be able to grasp all the rules, but Heart & Glory is gradually becoming its own thing.
