Faith&Demons The Rising Players Guide and Con-Quest Derby

Soon I'm hoping to babble at you about Con-Quest Derby 2012 (UK) - which I visited but for a handful of hours, and true to form I actually spent more time shopping than actually playing anything.

Memorise this mantra:
  • COLLECT
  • ACQUIRE 
  • CONSUME
  • Moan to self about systems being different these days and everything being card based 
  • (Weep over receipts, avoid checking balance) 
  • POST PHOTOS ON WEB
  • SELF-VALIDATE
  • PRETEND IT'S CHRISTMAS
  • Avoid Ebay
  • PLAN NEXT SHOPPING TRIP
So be prepared to read about my hoard of near random acquisitions.  By which I mean, physical products - none of this ephemeral PDF rubbish which I'm always recommending.  These were boxes and hardbacked and vintage things...  I felt like I'd just mugged Santa in the big city and was lugging his sack back to my lair in the sleepy hometown. Mwhahaha! 
(*happy popping noise of new hernia*)

But for now, I'm going to plug a lubbily Savage Worlds downloadable product for my friends at Mystical Throne Entertainment:

$7.95 USD/ $8.03CAD / £5.03
€5,76 / $7.91AUD on DTRPG/RPGN
As if the power vacuum created by Rome’s fall isn’t enough, the survivors are fighting against multiple forces. Religious persecution has reared its head with claims of heresy against those who are just worshipping as they always have. Tribal conflicts threaten to tear asunder tenuous allegiances. The land is suffering from the fall-out of it all making nomadic life more difficult than typical. The undead armies, horrific demons, and a host of once mythological creatures stalking the landscape create tension from shore to shore. Someone needs to do something. And the lords have decided your party counts as ‘someone.’

Your characters have it in them to be more than a survivor. Lead your nomadic tribe’s defence against all sides to become a legendary warrior. Best a demon lord. Quell the lich’s vampire army. Call down the angels of heaven to fight at your side. Or maybe call upon the denizens of hell to tear apart your foes.


FAITH & DEMONS: THE RISING is a Dark Ages, gothic fantasy plot point setting for Savage Worlds where united lords have brought the world’s warriors together to prevent the armies of chaos from enslaving their people.


The FAITH & DEMONS: THE RISING core setting guide includes:
●    9 templates to tie your character to their home nation.
●    Over 90 new Edges.
●    4 new Arcane Backgrounds.
●    Weapons and armor straight out of the Dark Ages.
●    Religion and Mythology found during the Dark Ages.
●    … and much more


Join the battle and defeat the armies of chaos!


FAITH & DEMONS: THE RISING is not a stand-alone game and requires the Savage Worlds core rulebook. Game Masters will need a copy of the core setting guide.

COLLECT, ACQUIRE, CONSUME, roll some dice, play an RPG for bit, eat pretzels, drink beer.
Kill Monster or "Best a demon lord .. Quell the lich’s vampire army ... or ... call upon the denizens of hell to tear apart your foes". -and Grab Treasure! ;)

I hope that the Month of April and the Season of Spring are finding you well.
-If not, I wish poverty and death upon your persecutors.

Thanks for reading! :)
