GLAIVE
GLAIVE is a toolkit for running old-school fantasy RPGs. Other OSR games, old-school bestiaries, adventures, magic sourcebooks, and modules you already own require little or no conversion to use with GLAIVE. Life is cheap in GLAIVE, so character creation is fast and easy. Intuitive and simple, these rules allow players new to OSR games to create characters and understand the rules in minutes!  Every PC in GLAIVE is a tomb-raiding, adventure-seeking ne’er-do-well who wields a spellbook as easily as a sword. Talents - a hybrid of class descriptors and skills - allow players to build classic fantasy archetypes or construct their own unique character concepts.
