Echo Chamber News Flash: Chaosium To Release New Magic World

This just in… Chaosium will be releasing a new version of Magic World this summer! Here’s the skinny:

MAGIC WORLD is a self-contained fantasy roleplaying game using the classic “Basic Roleplaying” system. The game allows you to play characters in a world of fantasy, adventure, and excitement. The rules of MAGIC WORLD are simple to grasp, while having enough options and complexity to suit any gaming style. Characters grow in experience organically, without relying on artificial constructs such as classes, levels, etc. Any sort of fantasy character you can imagine, you can play. MAGIC WORLD contains:

* Full rules for creating characters in a world of magic and fantasy.
* A robust magic system with nearly one hundred spells. Any character may become a spell caster with the right combination of raw talent, and training!
* Detailed, yet streamlined skills and combat rules.
* Complete rules for nautical adventures.
* A bestiary of more than sixty creatures to use as foes for the characters, or as the characters themselves! Play as any species imaginable: Human, Elf, Orc, Centaur, Troll, Talking Beast, and more!
* Gamemaster advice, and resources.
* A gallery of enchanted items which might be found in your characters’ adventures.
* A complete sample campaign setting, “the Southlands”, to jump start your adventures.
* And more!

The best part of this is that little “self-contained” bit. That should mean that the Big Gold Book isn’t needed, and that this little gem can be a proper gateway drug to the majesty that is BRP. That’s a whole lot of new spells for, presumably, the “classic” Magic World system (which is the “Magic” system in the BGB), too. I can’t wait to get my hands on this thing.

UPDATE: In case you don’t wind up reading the comments, I figured I should point out that it’s been revealed that the magic in Magic World will be the Sorcery system from the Big Gold Book (which is the system that appeared in Elric!) with additional spells added in from other Elric!-y sources. The whole game is, in fact, a reworking of the Elric! rules presented as a complete game. This is marvelous news and I’m just giddy at the prospect of having something like this from Chaosium. I think it’s exactly what BRP needs.

TFT Rogues Gallery

Wherein your humble scribe presents a trio of beginning adventurers for that most wonderful of early RPGs, The Fantasy Trip. As I’ve mentioned before, TFT is the game I played most (by a wide margin) back in the day. When the rest of you lot were busy taking your paladins and assassins against the giants or slavers (or whatever) in Greyhawk, the group I played with was busy running our heroes and wizards through our own adventures in homebrewed worlds like Erelandé, Greymere, and Trith. That doesn’t make me better than anyone, but it does make me very different than a lot of folks I’ve encountered in the OSR/geek blogging scene. There are a couple of retroclones of TFT out there (Legends of the Ancient World is the only one I’ve actually looked at), though, so I know I’m not completely alone.

Gathered together in the city of Lyros, the members of this trio of rogues have just finished up a month’s worth of work at the jobs they do when not questing for treasure. Joran’s employer docked him a week’s pay for an “incident” with another caravan guard, but nothing else serious befell anyone. What strange adventures might these three have in the coming days? Whatever trouble they get into will surely be played out on the hex grid of life (because people can move in more than four directions).

Future*World Rogues Gallery

Wherein your humble scribe presents an adventuring party for Future*World (which is a lot like Travller, but with a gate system instead of starships), from the Worlds of Wonder boxed set. This is BRP at its most basic, but that just makes it more enjoyable, if you ask me. These four adventurers were created completely by-the-book. If I were to run something using this iteration of the BRP rules I’d definitely want to tweak a few things, but on the whole I think the “original” BRP + Worlds of Wonder is downright awesomely playable as-is.

After a couple of years on the wrong side of the law (and a couple of very nice scores), Shavistine Ryn went straight and wound up serving the Empire well. But now that her tours are over, she’s considering a little backsliding for fun and profit in the Frontier worlds. With her lover Kannix, their bear-like Rumahl bodyguard Burrul, and the aimless ex-military robot Nate Jones along for the ride, who knows what kind of trouble (and profit) she’ll stir up?

Setting out from the village of Barnswallow Bend in the Duchy of Thraesborn, this curious group of travelers are headed to the Duke’s palace in Cardoun to ask for assistance in the fight against the raiding armies of Prince Harwyck of Fennais. The journey is long and perilous, as the road to the capital runs straight through both the Troll Hills and the Lost Forrest. But with the strong arm of Dolphinia, the stealthy blade of Shyle, the wits of Velturn, and the arcane power of Ordomox the Flame Wizard, the group has a fighting chance to reach their destination. Whether they can convince the crown to send help, though, is an altogether different matter.

TotSP Party: Against The Dark Lord Of Faalryn VI

Wherein your humble scribe presents a party he put together for the recently released Tales of the Space Princess. These folks are by-the-book new characters, which means they are of wildly divergent “levels” (compensated for a bit by the “luck” mechanic) and have minimal starting gear. On my initial readings, I feel like TotSP is a pretty nice little “old school-based” scifi RPG. Consider grabbing a copy if you’re interesting in such things.

Recruited by the young apprentice Jet to free the master of her order, this motley crew has flown directly into the heart of the black hole that conceals the mechanical planet Faalryn VI, home of the Dark Lord Syrtok. Will the combined might of the barbaric Kygar of Old Earth and the gruff bearman called General Bentusz be enough to defeat the dark one’s diabolical drones? Can “Katie” the science unit and Lq-vraal the beetleman smuggler’s collective craftiness lead them past the traps that are sure to confront them on their course? Will young Jet herself – inexperienced and fragile – survive this desperate rescue attempt? And just what does the nefarious Syrtok want with Master Iliryx, anyway? Find out when these five daring misfits array themselves Against The Dark Lord Of Faalryn VI!
