Black Spear is a d100 table-top role playing game based on a heavily hacked Openquest. It offers Gritty and Dangerous roleplay in an ancient, tribal world experiencing the beginning of a new age, as bronze starts to give way to iron and clan and tribe give way to nation, kingdom, and empire- with the mutant forces of corruption ever lingering at the edges and dark places in between.
The world is young, mysterious, with the unknown lying just beyond the pastures. Times are changing- can the people of the Marchlands survive these dark times?
Black Spear emphasizes quick, deadly combat, robust and realistic skills, simple rolls, and general case-by-case old-school principles over rules for every situation. Black Spear is currently in the early stages of its development, with much still needing to be written. We emphasize keeping Black Spear low-cost, relatively simple, and holding to the OGL. The skeleton of portions of this game are drawn from Openquest, but much has changed.
Feedback is welcome.
Up next are the Petty Magic, Ritual Magic, Pantheon, and Sorcery Chapter and the Travel and Downtime Chapter.
Inspiration drawn from King of Dragon Pass, Runequest/Openquest, Stars Without Number, Zweihander: Grim and Perilous RPG, Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, Ironsworn, and many more.
