The air in Kage no Shima is thick with the scent of blood and the promise of violence.
Ronin RPG: Core Rulebook is a rules-lite tabletop RPG set in a mythical, samurai-inspired world. Based on the M™RK BORG system, RONIN is a game of honour, combat, and adventure.
In a world ravaged by an eternal eclipse and overrun by supernatural creatures known as yokai, players take on the roles of forgotten ronin, shinobi, onmyoji, and more as they seek to restore their honour and defeat the forces of darkness.
Parrying adds a new layer to combat, Seppuku let's you regain your lost honour. Resurrection gives you a new chance at life but only if you can overcome a great foe. Honour allows you to follow strict tenets encouraging decisions and moral dilemmas which even influence your next character!
