Learn MoreThe air in Kage no Shima is thick with the stench of blood and the promise of violence.
It is a world where factions war over scraps, and the only honour to be found is in the sharpened edge of a blade.
But there is more to this land than the split guts of its warriors.
It is a place where the line between life & death is blurred, where the spirits of the dead walk with the living, and where the eclipse casts a shadow over all.
About the book:
Welcome to RŌNIN, a rules-lite tabletop RPG set in a mythical, samurai-inspired world. Based on the MÖRK BORG system, RŌNIN is a game of honour, combat, and adventure. In a world ravaged by an eternal eclipse and overrun by supernatural creatures known as yōkai, players take on the roles of forgotten ronin, shinobi, onmyoji, and more as they seek to restore their honour and defeat the forces of darkness.
With intuitive mechanics and a focus on fast-paced, cinematic action, RŌNIN is the perfect game for both new and experienced players. Our unique system of honour, resurrection, parrying, and survival adds depth and strategy to combat, while our tenets of bushido and other character-specific honour tenets offer a range of options for roleplaying and exploration.
