Swords & Chaos was designed with Old School and New School gaming philosophy in mind, and inspired by the works of literary titans such as Charles Saunders, Karl Wagner, and Robert E. Howard. This game seeks to bridge the gap between modern gamers and grognards and bring everyone to the table to celebrate one of the best damn subgenres in fantasy. In an effort to bring this creation to life, artists, writers, and editors living on three different continents have put their heads together to create something truly wonderful, visually stark, and uniquely barbaric. Together we invite you to pull up a chair, roll some dice, quaff some ale, and tempt Fate itself as a larger than life hero in an antediluvian age of corruption and wickedness.
Play as a tight-lipped assassin, a grim and brutal barbarian, an unrelenting fighter, a proud knight, a world-weary ranger, a wicked rogue, or a black-hearted sorcerer as you navigate through many harrowing tales of skullduggery, decadence, and high adventure. Dare to face inhuman horrors spawned at the dawn of time, and grim sorceries which would blast the mind of a lesser man. Death most assuredly awaits, but for those who win out in the end, fortune and glory can be won with steel and spellcraft. So what say you, dog? Feeling brave?
