Far back in the mists of antiquity, a poet sings of great deeds wrought by mighty heroes - of monsters slain and justice restored, of wise council and devious strategies, of courage, valor, and daring - defiant of the gods themselves. In Agon, you create and play these heroes, crafting their epic tale into an immortal legend.

On their way back home from the war, the heroes have become lost among strange islands populated by mythical creatures, dire beasts, treacherous landscapes, legendary kingdoms, and desperate people - all somehow cursed or abandoned by the cruel power of the capricious gods.

It falls to you to seize this opportunity for greatness - to set things right in these lost lands, overcome the trials of gods, monsters, and people, prove the glory of your name, and win your way back home.

The Road to Skydagger Keep

The Legion is in retreat following a failed battle against the armies of the undead. You are a member of the Legion, your bonds to one another forged in the dark by bone and blood.

But time is running out as more fall to the indomitable forces of the Cinder King. As Legionnaires, you must make it to Skydagger Keep before you're cut off or overtaken by the undead. Paying horrifying costs, you'll employ offensives, maneuvers, unwise bargains, and desperate gambits as the ever-ticking clock nears its final hour.

Do you have what it takes to outwit, outrun, and outlast the endless hordes of the undead, or will your band of blades break beneath the Cinder King's iron fist? Play to find out in Band of Blades, a stand-alone, Forged in the Dark RPG of dark military fantasy.

Band of Blades contains all the rules you need to play. In this book you'll find:

Blades in the Dark is a tabletop role-playing game about a crew of daring scoundrels seeking their fortunes on the haunted streets of an industrial-fantasy city. There are heists, chases, occult mysteries, dangerous bargains, bloody skirmishes, and, above all, riches to be had - if you're bold enough to seize them.

You and your fledgling crew must thrive amidst the threats of rival gangs, powerful noble families, vengeful ghosts, the Bluecoats of the city watch, and the siren song of your scoundrel's own vices. Will you rise to power in the criminal underworld? What are you willing to do to get to the top?

In this stand-alone game, you'll find:

Deathmatch Island is a fast-paced roleplaying game about a deadly competition on a mysterious island chain. It uses the Paragon system from the AGON roleplaying game, by John Harper and Sean Nittner. Instead of portraying ancient Greek heroes, the players take the role of ordinary people with a hazy memory of their life before the game. Instead of competing for glory, you compete for followers. Instead of reciting your epic deeds, you give a confessional to the camera (but is there really a camera? What is all of this, actually?). Instead of pleasing the gods, you face each other at the end and ask: will we turn on each other until one winner remains, or can we work together to break the whole system?

A game about exploring strange islands; wearing matching tracksuits; dodging gunshots as you scavenge weapons and gear from an abandoned fishing village; wrestling with another competitor on a huge climbing frame with explosive landmines buried below; having flashbacks to a surprising past that has serious ramifications on the present; crashing through a chainlink fence in a stolen production van to investigate a restricted office compound; leaping over a volcano's caldera on a motorcycle to get to the gift-wrapped loot crate before the police officer's team does; approaching The Sphere and learning that you've done this all before. This is a game with a tightly-focused premise and presentation, and whether you want to discover eerie secrets or compete to survive, you'll find something here to enjoy. It's about trust and teamwork and capitalism and solidarity and a big weird conspiracy.

Magical Girls grapple with destiny in this multi-genre tabletop RPG. Girl By Moonlight explores the heartbreak of denying who you really are, fighting for what you believe in, and the transcendent power of building relationships while embracing your true self. As a Magical Girl you will clutch your tragic struggles tight, seeking to score defiant triumphs against the darkness of an oppressive society. The game reinterprets the classic examples of the genre to create an allegory for self-discovery and queer identity. The text uses 'magical girl' as a shorthand, but your magical girls need not be girls, necessarily, but people whose identities put them at the margins.

Designer Andrew Gillis takes the rules engine beneath highly-acclaimed Blades In The Dark and tunes it to create a unique play experience representing the breadth of the Magical Girl genre. Girl By Moonlight draws inspiration from many sources.

The four major Series Playsets include: At The Brink of The Abyss. Heroic magical girls fight to reclaim a corrupted world. It's inspired by Sailor Moon and Steven Universe. On A Sea of Stars features mecha pilots struggling against extinction at the hands of the Leviathans and is inspired by Diebuster and The Vision of Escaflowne. Beneath A Rotting Sky deals with tragedy and betrayal where magical girls are doomed to an inevitable fate. It's inspired by Puella Magi Madoka Magica. In A Maze of Dreams draws on both Paprika and Serial Experiments. Its central themes are desire, mass culture, and ideas developing a life of their own.

Gameplay focuses on criminal endeavors called jobs. A session of play usually consists of 1 or 2 jobs, each followed by recovery, downtime projects, and advancement for the the crew and their ship. In Scum and Villainy, your ship gets its own 'character sheet', earns XP, upgrades, and levels up alongside the characters. As you advance the crew, you unlock new options and abilities for the scoundrels and pick a faction to back in the sector. Good luck out there!
