Domains of Shadow / $0.00

Domains of Shadow / $0.00: Publisher: Nathan Cavaliere

Although the thought is dearly appreciated, please do not try to pay for this item. It makes the logicistics much easier for me this way. 

You had immense power once. Perhaps you still do. 

Either way, there is nothing you regret more.

The world suffers from your actions. 

The actions you once thought were so heroic. 

Now that you have plunged your world into Domains of Shadow,

Will you ever find the light?

This is Domains of Shadow, a GMless and Rules-Lite Storygame of Gothic Horror and Shakespearean Tragedy. A system made for telling the stories of fallible humans whose corruptibility, flaws, and secrets lead to their tragic downfall. Not only that, but Domains of Shadow is specially built to tell stories that would be just as enjoyable to an outside audience as the players themselves, in the form of actual plays. It was primarily designed by Nathan Cavaliere, voice of Wheel of the Weird Roleplaying. You can get the complete 52 page Domains of Shadow Guidebook, as well as its supplementary guidebook, Visions of Chaos, for free on itch.io or DriveThruRPG.

There are two elements at the foundation of Domains of Shadow. The first is a non-continous story structure consisting of multiple distinct scenes where the role of creating the introductions to scenes rotates between players. The second is the Blight, which represents the influence of the Otherworld on the human mind, and the way that it drives people to their loss of composure and possible tragic downfall by promising them inner strength and dark occult power.

The Domains of Shadow Guidebook and the supplementary guidebook Visions of Chaos are provided here for free.
