SANGUIS SANCTUS: A Grimdark Fantasy TTRPG
SANGUIS SANCTUS is a Grimdark Fantasy tabletop RPG where you cleave your way through the demonic vampire invasion of the known world.
Inspired by real-world religions and folklore, SANGUIS SANCTUS is a dark rules-light narrative game, compatible with MÖRK BORG.
If you enjoy games like Trench Crusade, Castlevania, Blasphemous, or the From Software titles, where folklore themes are explored in grimdark worlds, SANGUIS SANCTUS is the TTRPG you were looking for!
You can find the pre-launch page right here, on Kickstarter!
In SANGUIS SANCTUS you and your friends play as survivors, coming from all sorts of backgrounds, faiths, or factions, united to endure in a world under the vampire Anti-Crusade. Will you carry the light to the besieged cities of mortals, or succumb under the darkness spread by fanged demons?
This A5-sized rules-light game uses the trusted MÖRK BORG enriched by new classes, weapons, mechanics, monsters, random tables, adventure locations, and an "art and lore heavy" setting.
Brought to you by game designer and artist Novecento Manfredi (HELLGREEN, STRIGA!, and MEKKAKONKRETE), alongside additional artworks by comicbook artist Emanuele Parascandolo (Speed Republic, La Musica Nel Sangue).
