Synopsis

The Last Torchbearers
A Roster of Fighters, Priests, Rangers, Rogues, and Spellcasters

When the dungeon claims one adventurer, another must be ready to take up the torch.

The Last Torchbearers is a collection of ready-to-play characters created for use with the Shadowdark RPG. Inside is a grim company of fighters, priests, rangers, thieves, knights, witches, warlocks, wizards, and other daring delvers prepared to enter the darkness at a moment’s notice.

Each character includes a complete game-ready record, equipment, attacks, class abilities, background details, and a matching full-page portrait rendered in an old-school black-and-white fantasy style. The characters are designed for quick reference, easy selection, and immediate play—making them ideal for new campaigns, one-shot adventures, convention games, replacement characters, or game masters who need a memorable NPC without lengthy preparation.

Inside you will find:

• A large roster of pre-generated Shadowdark characters
• Fighters, priests, thieves, wizards, rangers, bards, witches, warlocks, and Knights of St. Ydris
• Human, dwarf, elf, halfling, half-orc, goblin, kobold, and other ancestry options
• Complete statistics, attacks, equipment, talents, spells, and character details
• Full-page companion portraits for every adventurer
• Consistent, easy-to-reference character-sheet layouts
• Old-school black-and-white artwork with a dark fantasy atmosphere
• Ready-made heroes suitable for players, game masters, and convention organizers

Whether you need a fresh adventurer for a new campaign, a replacement after a deadly descent, a band of hirelings, or a stack of characters ready for a night of gaming, The Last Torchbearers provides a torchlit gallery of heroes prepared to brave the dark.
