Blood in the Roots
BLOOD IN THE ROOTS is a traditional fantasy game in a world of folk horror based in a version of medieval Britain. Players are members of the Hammers, a group established by the monarchy to flush out the evil corrupting the land. One player is the Game Master (GM), while the others are the Hammers. This game uses six-sided dice (d6), several tokens, paper, pencils and a healthy respect for the ancient darkness inherent in the soil. Play as one of four archetypes and venture into the evil heart of the land, coming face to face with cults and beings older than humanity.  Everything you need to play is packed into just three pages, ready to print out on a single page of A4 and fold.  PRINT COPIES NOW AVAILABLE!
