EFPZ0026: Print Weaver

Print Weaver combines an approachable form of palmistry and high fantasy roleplay in a gothic soulslike tabletop game for 2-7 players.

Player’s characters, called Travelers, are decided entirely by their own fingerprints, revive upon death, and must make their way through monster-ridden fallen kingdoms. The core game rules focus on creative group combat, resource, inventory and point management, dungeon delving, and survival across long stretches of travel.

Print Weaver’s Features:
Character generation only requires one’s fingerprints.
Permanent characters that make moving between tables easy and fluid.
Leveless and classless progression systems that encourage worldbuilding.
Easy d10 dice pool system that is quick to learn and use.
Fingerprint-based generation tables for Towns, NPCs and a variety of Monsters
Tables of 100s of magic rings and scrolls that take heavy inspiration from Dark Souls and the Legend of Zelda’s Oracle Games.
Print Weaver’s Setting:
Core setting is dangerous, gothic, and dark - Travelers move about the world, rest at Shrines, and slay Monsters to harvest their blood.
Ink (Monster Blood) is used to enchant weapons, heal oneself, and protect one’s camps from the senses of lurking Monsters.
Shrines, sites of revival, are tended to by Print Weavers, handmaidens of a mysterious divine force known as Providence, who presides over the soul.
Equipment is rare and inventory is dropped upon death, there are high stakes to falling during exploration and combat.
Lost equipment may be repurposed as equipment by local Monsters.
All Monsters may be salvaged and turned into equipment.
The bodies of fallen Travelers rise as powerful zombies known as Printless, who are the only monsters able to permanently kill Travelers.
