In the wondrous beauty of the aftermath,
Golden tables found among the grass,
Held by the gods in days of old.
Then barren fields will bloom and grow,
All harm shall be undone.
—Voluspá, 61-62
Death is not the end.
About Runecairn: Wardensaga Remastered
Carve your own fate in this rules-light roleplaying game of Norse fantasy tabletop roleplaying game written and designed by Colin Le Sueur and inspired by games like Dark Souls and Elden Ring. Based on lightweight new school revolution (NSR) systems Into the Odd and Cairn, Runecairn is designed for 2 players, one GM (the Warden) and one player (the Adventurer).
Runecairn: Wardensaga Remastered is an 84-page full-colour hardcover filled with black and white and colour illustrations depicting the Norse fantasy world of the Nine Realms.

- Streamlined d20 roll-under rules based on Cairn and Into the Odd.
- Soulslike mechanics such as resurrecting at bonfires, respawning monsters, and dynamic combat.
- Quickstart dungeon crawl adventure Beneath the Broken Sword, perfect for new GMs and players.
- 4 standard backgrounds: the hearty Warrior, nimble Scout, cunning Seer, or spirited Skald.
- 2 new advanced backgrounds: the devastating Berserkr and fiery Pyre.
-
Solo play with a rune-based oracle or drop-in additional players for jolly cooperation or player-vs-player invasions.
-
Delve generator for randomly creating dark fantasy dungeons.
