About The Vagrant Path

The Vagrant Path is a sci-fantasy roleplaying game about wanderers, set in a world of monsters, magic, and a civilization that unexpectedly finds itself in possession of a vast amount of advanced technology. The discovery of an information trove of mysterious origins kindles an age of artifacts and knowledge beyond their wildest dreams, thousands of years ahead of their own place in history. Through newfound lore, resources, and tools, sprawling civilizations and small factions alike begin to journey across the dangerous landscape around them, through paths and obstacles that once proved insurmountable.

The stories told in this game follow roving bands of Vagrants—dauntless warriors, hunters, scholars, sorcerers and pathfinders—as they journey across the wilderness and discover the hidden wonders of the world.

The 1.2 Version includes:

  • A flexible Character Creation structure that allows you to reflect your origins through your skills and disciplines, tangibly shaping your chances through freeform elements and freedom of choice.
  • An extensive Journey system that provides a solid structure for sandbox-style campaigns. Travel across vast regions with their own unique aspects, survive the elements, and watch as the seasons advance over the course of the campaign.
  • Freeform equipment and a tag-based weapon creation system.  Create your own unique weapons and make use of streamlined tools & defenses, and use them like an extension of your character.
  • Brutal Skirmish rules that put your quick thinking and teamwork to the test. A mixture of cinematic and tactical tools at your disposal without getting in the way of narrative, while providing you a real sense of danger.
  • Magic rules inspired by pagan folklore that leave the true versatility of magic in the hands of the Sorcerers that wield it, making use of evocative materials, rituals, and deals with wandering spirits to work with a unique brand of folk magic.
  • Monster Creation rules to forge your own threats to populate the world around you. Fight your way through beasts, monsters, machines and apparitions tailored by the GM's creativity, and live to fight another day!
  • And more!

In addition to the Core Rulebook, the Play Aids companion file includes a print-ready Character Sheet for the Players, a Timekeeping Sheet to tally the passage of time, and a Blank Hex Map to draw on. Keep these close--you'll surely need them.
