Rediscover that feeling of excitement when your players solve a brand new puzzle and that feeling of dread when they hear the iconic “click” as they step on a pressure plate. Six New Rulesets! In Loot & Lore 2, we’re including six of our best rulesets, which introduce new and exciting mechanics to expand play at the table! Get your hands on: - Skill Challenges. A 5e system for resolving situations where a single skill check won’t cut it. - Naval Rules. Our expanded and revised system for running ship-to-ship combat during your nautical sessions! - Rewards & Recognition. A system of expanded reward options so you can give your players something other than gold and magic items. - Diseases. A system to make illness and disease a meaningful component of the game, rather than something hand-waved away with a low-level spell. - Sanity. Designed to help players roleplay a progressive deterioration of a character’s mental state. - Spell Dueling. A system that replaces the basic counterspell with a more challenging, more rewarding solution. Get characters engaging in epic magic duels as they try to overpower their enemies and stop their spells! This book is designed as a companion for Lairs & Legends 2. Read more
