Publisher's Note: A revised edition of this title is in the works for Summer 2021. If you purchase this version¸ you will automatically have access to the updated edition when it is released. You will not need to purchase the new edition separately.
A complete core book inspired by D20 and Fate¸ a melding of story gaming and traditional tabletop roleplaying.
Hippogryph is a d20-based¸ story-driven tabletop fantasy roleplaying system. It is the collision of the D20 System and Fate RPG¸ but like the legendary creature it is more than the sum of its parts. This isn't off-brand D&D with Fate aspects stapled on¸ nor is it a collection of feats¸ spells¸ and class abilities translated into Fate terms. Hippogryph is a unique system that blends established legacy fundamentals with flexible¸ DIY story game ideals. Hippogryph System: Story Meets Tradition.
The approach is creativity-forward. While there are lists of abilities for you to choose from¸ it's quick and easy to make up your own elements. You can adapt the system to suit your own idea of what fantasy characters¸ worlds¸ and adventures should be like. The presentation is minimalist¸ so every page is filled with useful information.
Check out the Full-Size Preview for more on how the system works.
