Crimson Empire 2nd Ed.
 |
A fantasy-genre RPG set on an original world: the world of Thargos. It is set 150 years after the Crimson Empire was destroyed by the Great Cataclysm. Now the Northern region seeks to rebuild the empire¸ resisted by the South. The world is inhabited by humans¸ elves¸ dwarves¸ and dergs along with various other creatures such as centaurs¸ dragons¸ and various original creatures. It uses a detailed percentile system¸ with a combat system that strives for realism. It also includes a magic system. Character creation is random-roll attributes¸ choice of race and class¸ and modifiers for region¸ childhood¸ and inheritance. The second edition was renamed Cursed Empire. It features a ""Points of Renown"" experience system¸ where some characters can align themselves with a faction instead of themselves as individuals. Then if their character dies¸ the player can create a new PC with the same faction at a head start. - A description from https://darkshire.net/jhkim/rpg/encyclopedia/ with kind permission of John H.
