Board Role-playing Game The Witcher - Quick Start

The world doesn`t need a hero — it needs a professional

After the Conjunction of the Spheres, magic came into the world, and with it — monsters. The collision of realities created rifts through which creatures of various sizes and shapes, origins and intentions penetrated. To protect humanity from monsters, witchers were created several centuries ago — mutants who had survived strict training and murderous experiments. Witchers did their job well and, ironically, with their own silver swords gradually deprived themselves of the meaning of existence…

Here is a quick start booklet for a tabletop role-playing game in the universe of the cult «The Witcher». This is a dark adult fantasy where stories rarely end with a fairytale happy ending, and murder, attacks and robbery in war-torn lands are commonplace.

This is a tabletop role-playing game based on the literary cycle by Andrzej Sapkowski and the popular computer game series. The game offers participants a bestiary of bloodthirsty monsters, detailed and varied character creation, a magic and crafting system, as well as a merciless and bloody combat system.

The quick start booklet contains the basic rules of the system, a handful of ready-made characters and the starting adventure "Still Waters". To play, you will also need character sheets (like those presented in the quick start), writing utensils and dice - six-sided (d6) and ten-sided (d10), which are easy to find on the Internet or in game stores.

In this game, your adventures, actions, decisions and possibilities are practically unlimited. Helping you immerse yourself in the world of «The Witcher» will be the game master — he will be responsible for controlling the game, playing non-player characters, assigning skill checks, interpreting their results and describing what happens as you explore the Continent. Before starting the game, the master should familiarize himself with the quick start and adventure.

Fans of this fantasy franchise are also advised to pay attention to the board game «The Witcher. Old World».
