Description: The Burning Wheel (Revised Edition) Complete Core Book LotEverything you need to run a full game!Book 1: The Burning Wheel Fantasy Roleplaying System (2005)Book 2: Character Burner (2005)Book 3: Monster Burner (2004)Book 4: Magic Burner (2008)Book 5: Adventure Burner (2010) [Signed by Author, See Pictures] The Burning Wheel is a fantasy role-playing game independently written and published by Luke Crane. The game uses a dice pool mechanic (using only standard six-sided dice) for resolution, and a system of prior-experience for character generation which tracks the development of the new character from birth up to the point they begin adventuring. Unlike many other RPGs — but explicitly like earlier games — The Burning Wheel does not include a dedicated setting. The setting implied by the rules and mechanics and the life-paths used in character generation suggests a fantasy world not unlike Tolkien's Middle Earth, though it can be easily modified for other settings. The Burning Wheel core game consists of two digest-sized volumes (which are sold together): Book 1: The Burning Wheel Fantasy Roleplaying System (2005) This volume contains the rules and mechanics of the game, such as Circles, Resources, Fight!, the Duel of Wits, Range and Cover, and more. Book 2: Character Burner (2005) This volume contains lifepaths for generating Humans, Dwarves, Elves, and Orcs as characters, providing each with unique exceptions or additions to the overall game mechanics. Humans have access to Sorcery and Faith, Elves have their Grief and spell-songs, Dwarves have Greed and Orcs have blasphemous Hatred. Rules expansions also allow additional races, such as Dark Elves, who have turned their Grief into murderous Spite. Book 3: Monster Burner (2004) Much more than a collection of monsters, this book is the essential tool for spawning your own creatures, traits, and lifepaths. Inside the Monster Burner are the detailed guidelines you need to understand and manipulate the Burning Wheel character burning system. Plus:Four new lifepath sets: Roden, Great Spiders, Trolls and Great Wolves, complete with new skills, spells and traits.Dozens of illustrated monsters! Some classic, like the Giant and the Dragon, and some unique, like the Chiropteran and Hsigo, but all steeped in that distinctive Burning Wheel flavor!Plenty of stats to peruse, as well as suggestions for integrating creatures into your existing campaign and for starting new ones with monsters. Book 4: Magic Burner (2008) Magic: multifaceted, ephemeral and dangerous. It is a staple of the fantasy roleplaying genre, providing brilliant fuel to fire imaginations and transport them to different realms. The Magic Burner expands on the seven systems presented in the Burning Wheel and the Monster Burner, offering new mechanics, options and variants to add to your Burning Wheel game. This book contains:Eight new magic systems — Practical Magic, Familiars and Homunculi, Art Magic, Enchanting, Spirit Binding, Summoning, Death Art and Abstraction and DistillationFive variants and modifications for existing systems — Gifted, Religion, Blood Magic, The Arsenal Method and Alternate Readings and PracticalsOne beautiful new emotional attribute — fearsome CorruptionExtensive guidelines for creating your own magic systems and spellsNew lifepaths, traits and skills for wizards and their followers Plunge your hand into this eldritch storm and grasp hold of the power! Book 5: Adventure Burner (2010) Adventure: What we consider adventure, some call hardship, pain and certain death. The privation, the politics, the bloody fights all take their toll, but it is only when we struggle that we truly live. We fight to overcome. We deal for gain. We suffer for glory.The Adventure Burner is the third supplement for The Burning Wheel Fantasy Roleplaying System. It provides a system for setting up and running sessions, adventures, and campaigns. Examples are provided in the form of three ready-to-run scenarios — The Sword, Trouble in Hochen, and Thelon’s Rift — and 42 sample characters. In addition, this volume provides extensive insight into the Burning Wheel system. 150 pages of commentary guide the reader through the game and its application in play. A handful of new and clarified rules complete the book. These assets make the Adventure Burner an invaluable resource for neophytes and haggard veterans alike.
