The Dark Blade
Two pages, one for the players and one for the game master. Both designed and created in span of two days as a submission to One-Page RPG Jam 2023.The Dark Blade is a TTRPG in which the players take on the role of evil spirits trapped inside a cursed sword.  It was legendary paladin Godfred who has sealed them inside, in order to protect the world from their vile influence. Luckily for The Spirits, the blade has found its way into the hands of an adventurer known only as The Fool.  They need to cooperate and use their limited powers to steer The Fool's fate so that by his hand The Dark Blade claims enough souls to set them free once again.
