Venture & Dungeon

by Riley Rethal
A game of introspective heroic fantasy.

Venturegives us magic-filled forests and looming castles, champions in shining armor and vagabonds with dazzling charm, markets of ill-repute and duplicitous authorities, and uncaring gods high above always asking,What do you do next?

InVenture, we willplay as a group of adventurerstraveling through a fantasy world, making their way across the terrain while learning about themselves and each other. They will meet townspeople with storied cultures, criminals with shady agendas, mages with esoteric power, and a strange darkness encroaching on the horizon.

Well play an adventuring party of a traditional fantasy story, but framed in a way that shifts the perspective,focusing on the inner lives of the characters. The game is written to encourage players and characters to think about who they are, what they are doing, and why they are doing it. What does itmeanto be a Cleric with a personal relationship to a deity? How does itfeelto create magic out of nothing as the Wizard? Venture is a game about understanding the archetype through the character, and understanding the character beyond their archetype.
