Synopsis

The first adventure module for the Open Legend roleplaying game system, perfect for experienced and new players alike. Marooned on an uncharted island, caught between two warring tribes, and threatened at all hours by a dormant volcano prophesied to awaken again. Can our brave heroes discover the legend of Starfall Island before they fall prey to its denizens? In this introductory adventure, you’ll learn the basic rules for Open Legend by playing through an adventure. One player will take the part of the game master (or GM) and be responsible for directing the adventure and controlling the enemies, monsters, and non-player characters (NPCs). The rest of the players will act as the player characters (or PCs), each controlling a hero of legend who will accomplish great things. If you enjoy this basic set, be sure to check out the full rules, available for free at www.openlegendrpg.com. ----- You thought the job would be easy. Hitch a ride on a trading vessel, protect it from pirates, and earn a few gold and a free trip to the City of Sails. All in a day’s work for an adventurer like yourself. But there’s not much your swords and arrows and spells can do against a typhoon. You don’t remember much - the flash of lightning, the howl of wind, the doomful crack of the mast as it split down the middle - but one memory stands out perfectly in your mind. Traveling aboard the ship was a fortune teller, an old hag that was great aunt to the captain or something like that. On the night before the typhoon struck, she told your fortune, and her words are emblazoned in your memory: A star once fallen upon the land, Brings sword and axe and spell at hand. For planted deep like evil seed It fills heart, soul, and mind with greed. Shoulders broad and voices tiny Ceaseless war of clashing armies. In sleep, the beauty whispers well, But her wormtongue song is ever fell. A royal staff in hands upright Shall end the long, eternal fight. But try you might, and try you may The star will rise another day.
