Drakeblade
A downloadable game
The Old Gods have disappeared, leaving the world in chaos. The Age of Darkness have dawned with the Dark Dragon Gods rising to rule the world with iron fangs. With little hope left, heroes and vile folks have delved deep in dungeons to raid for gold and power, to save the world or themselves. Songs and tales tell of legendary weapons of various sizes and shapes called Drakeblades that are said to sleep in the deep dungeons, guarded by dragon-lords and liches. They are keys that could preserve the world or destroy it. Shall you rise up for the people or yourself?
Drakeblade is a compact, modernized OSR-Adjacent game in only two pages, allowing the GM and players to jump right in and play right away with little to no prep! The GM does not need to roll at all, making it a player-facing game and for those that love solo play, it should be easy to play it alone too!
It should be compatible with most modules and other OSR, making it for a good ol' dungeon-crawling and a great time with beer and pretzels!
- Only 4 stats where you can tweak them up and down or leave it as default at 10. You subtract 10 and the remaining number becomes the modifier. Simple.
- D20 with modifiers for performing various things and D6 for damage in combat.
- GMs do not need to roll, only the players do. That gives the GM more time to think ahead and prep.
- Shops are all ready on 2nd page for players to purchase necessary gears on the go.
- Leveling is optional, players purchase gains by spending XP.
What you waiting for? Get in here and lop off some heads!
Update (11/11/2023): Revamped the Health/Armor rules, added Civility stat for socializing with others, and changed the damage range with the Bows.

I second TerrorNoob's comment. If we can get a printer friendly version I'd love to give it a spin!
You got it! It's up now!
Thanks a lot! I'll be printing this bad boy tomorrow!
This is great! If you could add a printer-friendly version, that would be perfect.
It's up, go get it!
