IT'S GRIM BENEATH THE SURFACE. AND IT'S DARK...
Labyrinthine caverns connect lost cities and antediluvian tombs filled with monsters and madness, but most importantly, hidden and unremembered treasures.
About the book:
1400 LO-FI HI-FANTASY is a collection of five rules-lite, fantasy micro-games with a shared ruleset.
Each game has its own character options and variant rules, which can plug-and-play to tailor the game to the perfect experience for your group. The game also includes player and GM guidance, tables to help the GM create a world full of adventure and intrigue, and a replayable starter adventure: The Planar Nexus.
1400 LO-FI HI-FANTASY uses an easy-to-learn, skill-based system, where players roll a larger numbered polyhedral die the better their skill. Character creation is quick and easy, and the game focuses on narrative-driven gameplay and prioritises player agency and inventiveness.
The core rules are based on the 24XX system.
Includes 5 rules-lite micro-games:
QUEST - Heroic fantasy adventures that tap into the ‘classic' D&D-esque RPG space. Pick a class and ancestry, grabs some gear, and get exploring,
BELOW - Dungeon crawl with a darker vibe. Introduces magic (and cursed) items, new rules for harm, and generators for dungeon locations, hazards, and enemies.
SNEAK - Shadowy heists and assassinations. Play a vagabond pulling off under-the-table jobs. Introduces gadgets and new spells for players, and rules for running heists.
MAGE - High-magic spell-slinging adventures with expanded rules for spellcasting and a choice of sixty spells.
PLANES - Explore the multiverse as one of twenty ancestries, including Cambion, Myconid, and Reptite. Tables for the GM to populate an entire universe with adventure.
THE PLANAR NEXUS - Starter adventure module with multiple approaches that plays differently using different 1400 games.
