100 years ago Humankind vanished, without a trace, and their Great Empire fell into ruin. Now the monsters that once lurked in Humanity's shadow control the corpse of their fallen empire, and a desperate alliance of Gnomes, Goblins, Half-Elves, and Halflings, must find a way to free themselves and topple this new empire of death, before the raving hordes of Orcs beyond the Imperial Walls break through, to seize the throne of empire for themselves.
"Orc+Bone2: Blood+Gnome, Adventures in the Post-Human World", is a complete OSR tabletop roleplaying game, featuring an all-new interpretation of the classic rules system you all know and love. 10 playable Races and 18 playable Classes are described. Full details on the entire setting, monsters, villains, heroes, allies, rules, magic, and more are contained within. Extensive Random Encounter Tables allow Game Masters and Players to map out the world as they explore the vast ruined landscape of the former Great Empire, and the wilderness that is swiftly growing to replace it.
In conception, the Post-Human World of Blood+Gnome is designed to evoke lore reminiscent of an "everyman's fantasy setting", a world that once could have been the basis for any number of classic fantasy tabletop homebrew adventures, but has been pushed forward to the End of History. Humanity is gone. The Elves and Dwarves have long since retreated from the world. And now only the lesser Races and rejects remain to stand between an army of monsters, and an empire of the dead and damned.
Everything needed for gameplay is included in this handy all-in-one Rulebook. 480 pages. Recommended for players ages 14 and up.
