The Magical Land of Yeld (we just call it Yeld for short) is a multi-session role playing game focusing on adventures¸ hero building and shared storytelling. Like the classic console games we love¸ adventures in Yeld are designed to allow you to explore colorful and strange lands¸ seek out secret dungeons and temples and challenge powerful boss monsters as your characters grow to unlock new skills and discover more powerful weapons and treasure. Mermaid Hunters is your starting point for adventures in Yeld! Creating Characters: In Mermaid Hunters your characters start as normal children¸ called Friends. Each Friend is between the age of 7 and 12¸ and each Friend Type (like Liar¸ Know it all or Brat) has a different set of capabilities and personality traits. Once you move beyond Mermaid Hunters and start to explore the full Yeld RPG ( available on DrivethruRPG too! ) you'll get to take on Heroic Jobs like Witch¸ Soul Thief and Oathbreaker. These Jobs will give you powerful abilities that allow you to face down dangerous monsters and take on difficult adventures. As you explore Yeld you may decide to switch Jobs¸ taking some of what you learned from your last Job to your new Job. You may even go on special quests to learn powerful Advanced Jobs like Vampire Hunter and Drudge Angel! Or you may be doomed to take on a Monster Job like Deep Mage and Serpent Oracle! Building Adventures: Our adventures in Yeld are a story that we create and tell together. In each session of Yeld the Game Master will guide players through a story. If you've played an RPG before you know how this works¸ but since the Mermaid Hunters set is designed for new players we've made sure to show you exactly how to make fun adventures! Our goal will be to work together to tell a story that we've all had a hand in creating¸ and we'll discover that our adventures are more fun and more challenging because they're stories we've created together. Here's an example of how to build a typical Yeld adventure: Fights: You may have noticed that adventures in Yeld sound a little bit like video games like Final Fantasy or Legend of Zelda. Fights in Yeld take inspiration from classic fantasy video games to provide deep turn based¸ team based action! In Yeld we'll win fights with teamwork¸ and every character will get a chance to shine! Here's the basics rules for fights: Plenty of Mon sters... Yeld is full of strange and creepy creatures. Not everything you meet in Yeld wants to eat you (there are some very nice Monsters!)¸ but Vampires¸ Fairy Soldiers¸ Mermaid thieves¸ Toothfacers¸ Tunnel Mummies¸ Serpent Oracles¸ Scuba Snakes and all kinds of horrible stuff are lurking around every corner and in every cave¸ and their favorite prey is young Heroes!
