Eldritch Gambit
Eldritch Gambit is a fantasy roleplaying game that allows players to step into the roles of adventurers battling powerful forces and making difficult decisions in their favorite fictional setting, using building blocks instead of themed playsets for easy-to-pick up gameplay. The core rules are based on classic RPG systems with "push your luck" mini games added as special features along with drama support scenes focusing social actions, chase/stealth activities, non-combat magic spells and the benefits of fellowship among allies. Combat involves rolling dice to move or attack foes while characters have no classes (classes) but choose their motive, talent areas they excel at in personal quests based on themselves for character development without limitations from restrictive features like finicky ones found in other RPGs that can be tailored according to players' preferences and added upon with ease as long there's room left. Item-based magic allows anyone who wields enchanted items the ability of spells being cast by everyone, enabling magical combat techniques such as flashy battle tactics or overt necromancy (pushing luck after success/failure). The SRD is a light-weighted version that can be found at: with more content and professional editing in the future for improved layout,
