Trophy

A tabletop roleplaying game of dark forests, doomed treasure-hunters, and a world woven on a loom of rumor, history, and myth.

Overview

Trophy is a collection of collaborative storytelling games about doomed and desperate treasure-hunters entering a haunted forest that doesn’t want them there. The games explore the physical, mental, and emotional descent of the treasure-hunters as they move deeper and deeper into the forest, encountering ancient ruins, terrible monstrosities, and the greatest horror of all: themselves. Games rooted in Trophy are built around characters willing to push their luck. The character are often desperate, with something driving them to continue against all odds. The system itself encourages risk taking, so if your game isn’t about risks or characters who push themselves, then Trophy might not be the best foundation. Trophy is also about decline. Characters tend to degrade over time, or have some precious resource that they’re gradually losing (or a negative resource that they’re gaining). If your game is about characters becoming more and more powerful, then you might want to try a different system. There are two versions of the game: Trophy Dark and Trophy Gold. Trophy Dark is designed for single session play, while Trophy Gold is designed for longer campaigns.

Dragon Warriors

TTRPG
English
Dragon Warriors is a tabletop role-playing game originally designed by Dave Morris and Oliver Johnson. Published in 1985 by Corgi Books as a series of six mass-market paperback volumes, it was later re-released in a consolidated hardcover format by Magnum Opus Press in 2008 and subsequently by Serpent King Games in 2011. It is historically notable as a domestic UK alternative to early fantasy role-playing systems, celebrated for its evocative, low-fantasy setting heavily rooted in medieval European folklore. Description Dragon Warriors is set in the Lands of Legend, a grim, pseudo-historical analogue of Europe during the early Middle Ages, saturated with superstition, ruined barrows, and perilous folklore. Rather than a game of high magic and superheroic fantasy, players inhabit a brutal, mud-and-blood world where healing is slow and combat is highly lethal. The game focuses on human protagonists belonging to distinct professions. It purposefully eschews a modern unified core resolution mechanic, instead employing a mix of specialized dice rolls that tailor the mechanical feel to the specific action being performed, from martial combat to arcane spellcasting. System Overview & Key Features Class-Based System Characters are created by selecting one of several distinct Professions, such as the Knight, Barbarian, Assassin, Sorcerer, Mystic, Elementalist, or Warlock. There is no multi-classing, and each profession possesses unique features, progression paths, and distinct mechanical subsystems for how they engage with magic or combat. Opposed Combat Mechanics Combat resolution uses a subtractive mathematical mechanic. An attacker subtracts the target's Defence score from their own Attack score to determine a specific target number. The player must then roll equal to or lower than this target number on a 20-sided die (1d20) to score a successful physical hit. Armour Bypass Rolls (ABR) Armor in Dragon Warriors acts as a static physical barrier that must be violently breached to cause harm. If an attack hits, the attacker makes an Armour Bypass Roll using a polyhedral die specific to their equipped weapon (such as a d8 for a standard sword). To inflict damage, this roll must strictly exceed the target's Armour Factor (AF). If successful, the weapon deals a fixed, non-variable amount of damage directly to the target's Health Points. Contextual Task Resolution The game lacks a traditional, unified skill system or expansive skill lists, relying instead on contextual attribute checks based on core statistics (Strength, Reflexes, Intelligence, Psychic Talent, and Looks). General tasks are typically resolved by rolling equal to or under an attribute on a d20, while opposed or complex actions (such as Stealth versus Perception) utilize calculated target numbers resolved with either a d20 or 2d10. Asymmetric Magic Subsystems Magic mechanics vary drastically depending on the spellcaster's Profession. Sorcerers, Elementalists, and Warlocks utilize a standard pool of Magic Points (MP) that depletes upon casting and regenerates at specific times of day. Mystics, conversely, do not use MPs; they can cast spells freely but must roll a check after each casting to see if they suffer psychic fatigue or temporarily lose their arcane abilities.
