Rob aristocrats with guns, swords, or eldritch wytch-craft—the choice is yours! Back in print for the first time in over 50 years, & revised using the Grit System, PICARO! is an al l-inclusive tabletop roleplaying game about professional picaros (rogues, scallywags, malingerers—you know the sort) who are striving to exit the shadows of an oppressive social system (& indulge in all manner of diverse misadventures & line their purses along the way). In this singular book, you will find: ● Complete, concise rules for the Grit System—the innovative, flexible, & quick-to-learn system behind Stillfleet, Blister Critters, & Danse Macabre.● 12 classes that double as pregenerated characters—from diabolist & dragoon to orphan & veterinarian.● 30 Weird powers (spells)—with a capital W: infuse your wytch’s craft with newfound oddity (not to mention panache).● 6 fantastical species options—all right, yes, we’re counting humans, but wouldn’t it be rather rude not to? We’re us, after all...● 44 encounters—from ape-ants & imps to walking orchids & dust gnomes. (But perhaps the most dangerous “monsters” are, of course, your fellow picaros...)● 50 ideas for rollicking capers (adventures), plus a full caper to play through—so you can’t say we didn’t anticipate the question, “what does an early modern adventure look like?”● & so forth! Needed to play: 2 or more players & dice (d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20) or an online dice generator. We recommend pen & paper as well.Ages: 13+ (probably, depends on the kid, innit)From: Stillfleet Studio & Wythe Marschall Watch the Actual Play: join us as Arthur, Fabs, Jenn and Wythe from Stillfleet Studios take you to a fantastical Tortuga for part 1 of PICARO!
