Valeria is a powerful mage as well as an exemplary scholar. In her search for the truth, she always strives for more knowledge, while in doing so she guards a dark secret that threatens to engulf her completely.
Some strive for wealth. Some strive for knowledge. Some strive for power. Nagatt, however, wants nothing more than to wander the world and invent new things. If only his growing forgetfulness would not stand in his way.
As a former slave, Zartok knows what it means to live through hard times. As a generally unwelcome Zerkarian, he has his own struggles on the streets, but has never forgotten his ambitions. He wants to get to the top and there is no compromise.
Als Oberhaupt einer in Verruf geratenen Adelsdynastie aus Anloc, ist Aseron gerissen, wortgewandt und versucht mithilfe von geschickter Manipulation seine Ziele zu erreichen, wobei er sich für keine Intrige zu schade ist.
Once a proud member of the Guardians of Cloudsong, Sky Dance was cast out when she lost one of her wings through foolish recklessness. Far from everything she knows, she hopes to regain her honor and find a way to return to her homeland.
The priestesses of the Moon Elves, sung about in many legends, are said to be able to see the future in the water of their sacred spring. However, Shani would not have imagined this particular future. Far from her homeland, it is up to her to discover an alien world and to master the mysterious powers whose responsibility was imposed on her.
As head of a discredited noble dynasty from Anloc, Aseron is cunning, eloquent and tries to achieve his goals with the help of clever manipulation, whereby he is not too shy for the most despicable intrigue.
The Evolving Items are powerful artifacts that grow with your character and increase in strength. They only reveal their full potential to those who master their hidden challenges. With each level, new powers and secrets awaken – ready to be discovered by you.
Here are some examples of the numerous realms to discover in Shards of Gods.
While other nations are defined by laws and alliances, a very different principle governs Mertalis.
Here, rule varies by region: Sometimes it’s in the hands of individuals, sometimes gangs, and sometimes there’s no ruler at all. No written laws exist. The so-called ‘civilized’ realms often brand Mertalis a criminal paradise, but that is only half the truth.
Travelers who venture to Anloc, in the west of the United Kingdoms, step into a world of twilight and shadow, where everything beyond the vast mushroom forests fades into an eerie, dreamlike distance.
Home to the cunning and perfectionist Shadow Elves, the forest itself mirrors their nature—both mesmerizing and enigmatic. Yet, beneath this beauty lies an impenetrable veil, for the forest and its creatures are as elusive as the ambitions of their Elven masters.
Every scene, no matter how stunning, is shrouded in twilight, and the naked eye cannot discern what lurks in the darkness beyond.
The vast and diverse lands of Elun are home to a rich tapestry of cultures. Nowhere is this more evident than in the continent’s south, where exotic, almost otherworldly landscapes stand in stark contrast to the rest of the mainland.
Dar’hab, a land of scorching heat and endless deserts, is renowned for its vibrant cities, the breathtaking Sapphire Plains, and a society unlike any other. Known for its matriarchal structure, cutting-edge research, and masterful glasswork, Dar’hab thrives on innovation and tradition alike. Its people, adorned in strikingly colorful garments, are as passionate as the land they call home.
What is Shards of Gods?
Shards of Gods is an epic fantasy tabletop role-playing game from Mad Lizard Games that takes players into a captivating world of mystery, legends, and epic battles.
What is a tabletop roleplaying game?
A tabletop role-playing game (RPG) is a narrative game in which players take on the role of fictional characters and experience adventures together. A game master guides the group through the story while the players make decisions, solve problems and interact with the world. Dice are often used to determine the success of actions. These games can also be very complex and require detailed preparation. With Shards of Gods, we have developed a game that is deliberately designed to be more accessible, especially for beginners.
What is a “high fantasy tabletop”?
A high fantasy tabletop is a specific subcategory of tabletop role-playing game that takes place in fully imagined worlds characterized by magic, supernatural elements and medieval themes. These worlds are unique and often include their own cultures, rules and creatures that are very different from reality.
WHICH RULESET/SYSTEM DOES SHARDS OF GODS USE?
Shards of Gods uses its own, modular and easy to learn ruleset, which is suitable for beginners and experienced players alike.
HOW MANY PLAYERS CAN PARTICIPATE IN A GAME?
The game is designed for 4-5 players. Another person acts as the game master (GM). This person guides the others through the adventure as they try to achieve a common goal.
WHY 4-5 PLAYERS?
This is our recommended player count, excluding the Gamemaster, as we balanced encounters etc. around this number of players.
It is your game though, so you can, of course, mix it up as you like. This is especially true for any adventures you create by using our Worldbuilding Book.
Are there any expansions or additional content for the game?
The game will be expanded in the future with new, optional content and products that can be integrated at will. Currently, the team is 100% focused on the core game.
