Non-Humans for The Sword of Cepheus
The Sword of Cepheus assumes an anthropocentric world; however¸ in many sword & sorcery¸ sword & planet¸ and fantasy settings¸ humanity is not alone. Be that lizardfolk lurking in primordial swamps¸ undead heroes and villains transcending death¸ or dwarves delving deep into the earth. Some are allies¸ some are enemies¸ and yet others are the heroes of the story itself.
Non-Humans is a supplement for The Sword of Cepheus detailing twelve non-human species¸ complete with special abilities and full character generation rules. Here you will find anything from reptilian and insectoid humanoids¸ through the "demihumans" of traditional fantasy role-playing¸ to draconids to undead revenants. For each¸ we present abilities¸ career tables¸ mishap tables¸ and even tables for use in expanded character generation- one career per species¸ useful whether you intend to present these species as player character options or generate varied and interesting non-human NPCs.
We present here twelve non-human species: antediluvians¸ draconids¸ dwarves¸ elves¸ geckofolk¸ gnomes¸ goblins¸ halflings¸ insectoids¸ lizardfolk¸ revenants¸ and trolls¸ with their full statistics and character generation information.
This is not a stand-alone book. To use this sourcebook¸ you require a copy of The Sword of Cepheus.
Non-Humans also has excellent compatibility with Cepheus Light¸ and good compatibility with the Cepheus Engine Standard Reference Document (SRD) and other OGL 2d6 games.
