VICIOUS PRINCES Alpha 21



Two princes in a vicious fight about where to order takeout

You know the drill: new update, new notes, new effusive thanks for the interest. This one is mostly here to include a big ol' example of play. Check it out on the carrd! 

Here's an incomplete list of changes in Alpha Version 21:

  • A new section, 24: Example of Play, walks you through part of a day of action at the table--it's more or less the cliffs notes version of a session I had just the other day.
  • New art for Section 17!
  • An overhaul to the SCHEMING section--same rules, just a different attempt to tackle the language.
Next time I'll hope to have the final example rival, and then the core book is basically feature complete.
I'm also hoping to take one last pass at the traits...

Rival: Keve Kornel, Prince of Coffins

  Rank 6: Great Lord. The Great Lords do not need your love, nor your loyalty. They don’t even need your obedience. They don’t expect it. How could they?  They want your awe . This is how they survive: cultivated unassailability. Not of the men and women (who die like anyone dies) but of the Fourteen, and the Seventy-Seven. As well oppose the rain or the dark. As well rage against death than against the Great Lords. Imagine Zarkany burnt to the ground or slid into the sea–do not imagine it without the Council. Bring one down and sixty-two salivating suzerains line up to fill the seat. Kill one and take their patent and their place. Why wouldn’t you? Do you know what you’d be throwing away? So the bulwark has held for centuries. But Keve Kornel (Fourth Great Lord of the Day Council) has noticed the spiderweb faults in the foundation. The hellish exhalation of the Fabrication district. The nascent eighth ward. The constant cancer-growth from which the Council fancies itself detached. The
