Hi, new to Shard and already loving it

Wielder · Aug 29th 2019, 10:05am

Hi! I'm Wielder, and I'm new to the world of Shard, but I'm already loving what has been created. My current character is a Taskara maned wolfess named Vadoma, and I'm just getting into her as a living breathing thing in my head, so I'm excited to start sharing her soon!

I love this game as it reminds me of the good times I had with old RPGs like Werewolf the Apocalypse, but I'm really liking how flexible the system is and how it puts an emphasis on storytelling and really creating a world and scenarios you can see happen in your head and enjoy going through with your character and your dice rolls regardless of how it turns out. I must thank Mulefoot for being kind enough to introduce me to this world and to be my guide through it. I'm so excited to delve further into the world!

I'm super excited for this world guide. I want...no NEEEEEED...more lore. I love lore-heavy games.

Welcome Wielder. You're definitely in luck. The upcoming World Guide for Shard will contain soooooo much lore.

Welcome Wielder!

So glad Mulefoot introduced you to us! I'm so glad you're enjoying the lore we've offered so far. Absolutely check out the ""unedited" versions of some of the World Guide stuff currently posted here on the forums.

There's both some new works in progress in this section: dardunah.com/forum4/index.php/…-work-on-the-World-Guide/

As well as some tidbits from the initial test print:
...Such as this... dardunah.com/forum4/index.php/Attachment/132-Commerce-pdf/
...this... dardunah.com/forum4/index.php/Attachment/130-Dalan-pdf/
...this...dardunah.com/forum4/index.php/…pter005-Medical-Arts-pdf/
...this...dardunah.com/forum4/index.php/…3-Chapter006-Poisons-pdf/
...and even this!...dardunah.com/forum4/index.php/…ogy-of-the-Animorphs-pdf/

Of course, these are "unedited", in that we're still working and greatly expanding on these sections/chapters even now, and they could contain information and rules data that may change before final publication of the World Guide... But for now,...enjoy!

Even the bits and pieces offered by Scott are simple morsels of delight compared to the feast of information being offered in the World Guide. I have been playing for more than a decade and there is information which will be presented in the World Guide that I never knew about and I am sure the other long time play testers have not been exposed to as well. When I say the final core book gives life to the game, believe it!
