First I'm hearing of it, but I guess it's that time of year....
I guess it's inching towards being a PnP RPG (the Oracle system):Fantasy Flight Games is pleased to announce a new cooperative narrative game in Legacy of Dragonholt! The first game to use the Oracle system, Legacy of Dragonholt contains six quests set in the Runebound universe that take as many as six daring heroes to the outskirts of Terrinoth. Adventurers build their own stories by making choices that will lead into dark caves and dangerous forests, pit them against cunning bandits and vicious monsters, earn them wealth and fame, and hopefully bring them to foil the plot of an evil overlord.
This narrative adventure game allows players to become bold heroes of the fantasy realm of Terrinoth by designing characters to fit their unique personalities. To build their rich story experience, players select a race and class, create a personal description, and choose their skills. These are recorded on character sheets that heroes hold for easy reference throughout their adventures.
....
As adventurers’ stories progress, they mark their advancement on the track sheet included in the back of each quest book. This records the entries they have read and the subsequent decisions they have made. Sometimes an early choice can have unforeseen consequences later in the story. This track also determines how each hero grows over the course of their journey, what they learn and how their identities may change. The progression of the heroes’ quest and characters comes about organically through storytelling as they explore the many vistas of the quests before them. Their adventures may be influenced by which roads they take, who they speak with, and even which day it is. The realm of Terrinoth is a fully realized fantasy world that continues to breathe regardless of the adventurers’ involvement, and the Oracle system allows for this living world to be ever present. Depending on how players choose to interact with Dragonholt via the Village Book, they may find that they encounter people and creatures who directly influence their quest, or they may never meet them at all.
