Perilous Ventures Playtest Edition
Publisher: J.T. Kercado

Are you ready for a quick, easy, and dangerous medieval fantasy role-playing system you won't spend a lifetime learning and setting up? Then Perilous Ventures is for you!

It uses the new ORC System, which relies on opposed rolls to determine combat using easily available six-sided dice. Character creation is quick and easy, with no ability scores, four classic fantasy races: dwarf, elf, halfling, and human (with rules for playing other races), and four character classes: priest, thief, warrior and wizard.

It uses an innovative magic system with no pre-defined spells, allowing players to be creative and use their imagination to the fullest. It also facilitates monster management with an innovative, automatic attack type determination system.

All you need is a few six-sided dice, papers, and pencils to play the game. I have enclosed a link to a video presentation explaining the very basics of this system.

This is the Playtest Edition, so your help is wanted to refine this game and make it balanced, entertaining, and fun. Feel free to contact me with any questions and comments about it. This is a very simple, straightforward rules set, and the playtest is recommended if you already have some tabletop RPG experience, since some things, like creating an adventure, are presented in a very concise manner.

Price: $4.99

  1. hi jkercado , I'm a 58 year old former gamer drawn back into the FRPG
    world by my nephew. I have been following your youtube videos. I am looking for a simple and direct rules system that is easy to pick up on and broad enough to fulfill a broad range of adventure types.
    I am very interested to hear more about Perilous Ventures.
    Where can I get some kind of play review or somehing to describe what the system is like. I understand you are trying to protect your intellectual property , but I can't find any real information on how your system works. Any info would be useful.
