An RPG in Two Pages


Player Guide
1 - Introduction
Adventurers! is a complete stand-alone RPG in two pages.
This revised edition is expanded and fine-tuned to make
it a more streamlined game. Send your Adventurers into
action!
2 - Character Creation
Name. Identifies your character, choose a cool one!
Concept. A brief description of your hero.
Stats. Split 6 Points among Stats, calculate Derived Stats.
Skills. Choose two Skills at Basic level or one Skill at
Advanced level.
Gear. You begin with 30 Coins of gear or a weapon, ar-
mor and any two items linked to your Skills or Concept.
3 - Mechanics
Action Resolution. Roll 2d6 + Stat, if you score 7 or
more your action is successful (Difficulty applies a modi-
fier).
Opposed Rolls. Roll 2d6+Stat, highest wins.
“Natural” Rolls. The score right from the dice, without
any modifiers.
Critical Results. Double One is a Critical Failure and
Double Six is a Critical Success.
Heroism. After rolling you can spend 1 Heroism to add
+1 to the result or to reroll from scratch.
Advantage/Disadvantage. Certain factors (mainly
Skills) give you advantage or disadvantage: roll three dice
and pick the highest (advantage) or lowest (disadvantage)
two dice.
Notation. In published scenarios rolls are written like
this to save space: Mnd (-2, Perception). This means you
must roll on Mind, with a -2 modifier, and the Perception
Skill applies.
Situation Modifier
Easy +2
Difficult/Very Difficult -2/-4
4 - Stats and Derived Stats
Stats define characters, they range from -1 to 6.
Strength (Str). Physical prowess and vigor.
Agility (Agi). Nimbleness and basic defense.
Mind (Mnd). Intellect, ingenuity and knowledge.
Derived Stats are secondary attributes
Attack (Att). Depends on weapon and Skills.
Defense (Def). Based on Agility, modified by armor.
Heroism (Her). For player characters, it is calculated as
Adventurers! Revised Edition
Lowest Stat +1 (min 1). Her can become higher during the
game but resets at the adventure’s start.
Endurance (End). Str+Agi+3. Represents vitality and life
force. When it drops to zero the character is knocked out
(GM decides if he is actually dead or not).
5 - Concept
The Concept identifies what a hero is and what he does. It
is made up of two parts, a Definition (e.g. Unlucky) and an
Archetype (e.g. Detective), such as Dashing Swordsman,
Mysterious Mage, or Cop Who Protects Innocents. You
have Advantage on knowledge rolls linked to your Ar-
chetype. The GM rewards you with Her points when you
role-play your Definition (e.g. if you are a Courageous
Swordsman and you behave in a courageous way).
You start with a single Definition, but can acquire others,
up to three in total.
Archetype cannot be changed unless GM allows it.
6 - Skills
Skills define what your expertise areas are and exist in Ba-
sic (B) or Advanced (A) form. You must first take a Basic
Skill before improving it to Advanced.
Focus (F). This Skill can be taken multiple times, each
time choosing a different Armor Group, Minion, Power,
Weapon Group and so on. Typical ones are listed below;
others will be introduced in various settings.

7 – Optional Character Creation Rules
Point Buy Characters. Characters begin with Stats at 0
and no Skills. They have 30 Experience Points to spend to
upgrade their heroes Negative Stats (i.e. -1) grant +3 Exp/
negative Point.
Coins for Stat Points. You can double your starting
Coins by renouncing 1 Stat Point. You can receive 1 ad-
ditional Stat point by reducing your starting Coins to one
fifth. If you are using the Point Buy rules, double money
costs 3 Exp and reducing coins grants 3 additional Exp.
Races. By default adventurers are humans. If you want to
play alternative races you can take inspiration from these:
Dwarves. 5 Stat Points, +1 End, Night Vision. Elves. 5 Stat
Points, +1 to Power rolls and +2 to rolls to resist Powers.
Small Folk. 5 Stat Points, Str from -2 to 5, +1 Her.
8 – Combat
Initiative. Characters act in descending order of Agility.
Ties are resolved with opposed Agi rolls.
Actions. During his turn a character can move up to
10+Agi yards (half if Encumbered) and can perform an
action (attack, use a Power etc…).
Attack. Attacker rolls 2d6+ Att, Defender rolls 2d6 +
Def. If Attacker wins he deals 1 Damage (Dmg) +1 per 2
points higher than Defender he scored.
Ranged Attacks. As above, you suffer no penalty if tar-
get is in Range of the weapon. Beyond Range, you suffer
-2. No ranged attack is possible beyond Range x2.
Damage (Dmg). Damage is subtracted from End.
Armor Roll (AR). If the Defender is hit and wears ar-
mor, he can make an AR to reduce Dmg, rolling a die and
applying the armor’s effect.
Attack Critical Success. +1 Dmg.
Defense Critical Success. Defender makes an imme-
diate free attack (melee only).
Attack Critical Failure. You fumble with your
weapon and lose the next attack.
Defense Critical Failure. You give a dangerous open-
ing to your opponent, giving him a free attack.
Two-Weapon Fighting. You make two attacks, but the
main attack suffers -1 and the secondary attack suffers -3.
The Ambidexterity Skill offsets these penalties.
Adventurers! Revised Edition
9 – Recovery
Sleep. 8 hours of rest restores Str+1 End.
Healing. A Mnd roll restores 1 lost End, 2 with a Critical
Success (max number of healing attempts a character can
receive per day is Str+1).
Heroism. GM awards Her during the game for overcom-
ing foes and obstacles and good role-play, in particular of
your Concept Definition. Her resets at the scenario’s start.
10 – Gear
Gear is described in the Gear Sheet. Ask the GM what
is available in the setting you are playing. Firearms, in
particular, may be restricted. Gear special effects are man-
aged through keywords.
Att/Def of weapons/armor are based on the Stats of the
user. So a character with Agi 3 using a dagger has Att 3.
Ammo. Ranged weapons come with 20 ammo (refilled at
the beginning of the scenario).
Cost. Expressed in generic “Coins” (real currency de-
pends on the setting).
Shields are considered weapons, because they can be
used off-hand for push attacks. If you have Weaponcraft
(Shields) you can use it in Def rolls to enhance your
chances to deflect blows, even if you don’t attack with it.
11 – Powers
Powers are supernatural abilities certain adventurers have.
They are divided into Spheres, each with its own effects.
The exact description and nature of a Power is left to the
player. By default, Powers affect a single target, but they
can be modified during use. Settings define what Power
Spheres are available.
Power Roll. To use a Power characters make a Power
roll, which is a Mnd roll with the modifiers below.
Strain. If the Power roll is a natural 2-4, whether it suc-
ceeds or not the hero suffers Strain, losing 2 End with a
natural 2 and 1 with 3-4. If you have a Focus you can use
it to absorb Strain.
Powers with Limitations. If the player takes a Limita-
tion for his Power, chosen when acquiring it (i.e. affects
only undead, works only by night...), he rolls with advan-
tage.
Duration (D). Effects of Powers with a Duration usually
last a scene (GM’s choice), others are permanent.
Resisted (R). Some Powers can be resisted, i.e. opposed
by the target’s Mnd roll. If the target wins, the Power
doesn’t work. R-X means that resisting rolls have a -X
modifier.
Power Situation Modifier
Area Effect -2/Burst 5
Intense -2/+1 Dmg
Duration (day/week) -2/-4

Power Situation Modifier
Permanent -6 and 1 Her permanent loss

Range Mnd x10) with this Power. If you have a Power
Weapon you roll with +1 Att.
Empower (D, R).You can buff/debuff creatures and
items, giving +1/-1 to one type of roll (e.g. Att, Def). Giv-
ing +2/-2 is a Difficult Action.
Healing. You can heal a number of End equal to your
Mnd (min 1). Healing yourself is a Difficult Action.
Illusion (D, R-2).You can craft illusions including false
opponents (same stats as Summoning, but End = spell-

Investigation (D).You can detect hidden or invisible
things and gather knowledge beyond normal means. In
addition You use Mnd in place of Agi for Initiative.
Mind Control (D, R). You can enslave the minds of
other beings. Self-harming orders require an immediate
opposed roll to maintain control.
Protection (D). You can create wards and protec-
tions. You can make Def rolls using Mnd, gain AR 4/6,
and can bestow this protection on others. With Mage
Armor you gain +1 extra Def and +1 to AR.

where to obey you. Normal creatures (4 Stats Points,
1 Skill/Special Ability) are called without penalty,
Powerful ones (6 Stats Points, 2 Skills/Special Abilities)
are Difficult to call and Very Powerful (9 Stats Points, 3
Skills/ Special Abilities) are Very Difficult.
Transmutation (D, R). You can shapeshift creatures
and objects, altering their nature. Shapeshifted creatures
can have from half to the original number of Stat Points.

GM GUIDE
1 – Introduction
This guide shows you how to run a game of Adventurers!,
to expand the game and to design your own items, mon-
sters and treasures.
2 – Action Resolution
What Stat Should I Roll On? Choosing the right Stat to
roll on can be tricky. Examples:
Str. Bashing a door, lifting a rock, resisting poison.
Agi. Avoiding traps, tightrope walking, sneaky moves.
Mnd. Remembering info, persuading, noticing clues.
Teamwork. Heroes can cooperate in certain actions.
Choose a Leader, the others are Helpers. Helpers make an
unmodified Stat roll; if successful the Leader gets +1 to
his roll.
Helper’s Critical Failure: -2 to the Leader’s roll.
Long Tasks. Very complex tasks require multiple succes-
ses to be achieved. Each round the heroes roll, if suc-
cessful they gain a Success Token (2 with a Critical Suc-
cess). When they reach the minimum number required
(see below) the action is resolved. Sometimes a Long Task
must be done in a limited time and/or number of rolls.
Action’s Length Tokens
Short 2 Dmg; if the roll is a natural 2-4 the victim catches fire -
Medium 4 Hunger and Thirst. Characters suffer from hunger after
Long 6 two days and from thirst after one. Make a Str roll or suf-
3 – Advanced Combat Options
Narrative Combat. Encourage the players to describe
their moves and actions in narrative terms. If they attempt
some cool special move don’t be shy about giving them
bonuses from +1 to +2 to Att or Def.
Aiming/Evaluating Opponent. Studying an enemy for
a full round grants +1 Att to next attack against him (max
two rounds of aim possible).
Distractions. You can try to fool, distract or intimidate
an opponent with an opposed Mnd or Agi roll. If you win
the opponent suffers a -2 penalty to Att or Def till your
next action.
Tactics. During combat you can reduce Att or Def by 2
(but not below 0) to gain +1 Att, Def, Dmg, or an extra
attack (Atk). The modifiers last till your next action.
Example. You can reduce your Def 3 to 1 to obtain +1 Att
(wild attack), reduce your Att 4 to 2 receive Def +1 (total
defense), reduce your Def 2 to 0 to obtain +1 Dmg (mighty
blow), reduce your Att 2 to 0 to perform an extra attack
(flurry of blows).
Adventurers! Revised Edition
Judging Death. When a character drops to 0 End he is
defeated. The GM must decide when he is dead or only
knocked out. Death should occur only in extreme cases
(i.e. headshot, falling in a volcano etc…) or when the
player behaved in an unwise way.
Attacker Situation Modifier
Higher Ground +2
Multiple Attackers +1/Extra Attacker
Visibility/Cover -1 to -4
4 – Hazards
Here is a list of the most typical dangers of an Adventu-
rers! game. X means a modifier to the roll.
Cold/Heat (X). In extreme weather heroes must roll on
Str hourly or lose 1 End. Specific gear grants a +2.
Darkness (X). Characters in darkness suffer X penalty,
from -1 to -4, to all rolls where seeing is important.
Drowning. A character can safely hold his breath for
Str+2 rounds (min: 1). After this period he must make a
Str (-2) roll per round or suffer 1 Dmg.
Falling. Causes 1 Dmg per 3 yards of fall. Agi roll to
halve damage (Athletics applies).
Fear (X). Certain creatures and events cause fear. Cha-
racters must make a Mnd roll or suffer -2 to all rolls until
the source of fear is removed.
Fire (X). If exposed to fire make a Def roll to avoid 1
putting out the fire requires an Agi (-2) roll.
fer 1 Dmg and lose 1 Str (regained when they eat/drink).
Illness (X). Exposed heroes roll Str with a modifier to
avoid infection. Maladies can be cured with a Mnd roll
using the Healing Skill. Some illnesses require an additio-
nal roll to avoid getting worse. Examples:
Cerebral Parasites (-1). Spread by the bites of some
bats. Effect: -2 Mnd. After 15 days make a Str (-2) roll or
permanent madness. Duration: 1 month.
Debilitating Fever (+1). Contracted from mosquito
bites in swamps. Effect: -2 Str. Duration 2 weeks.
Poison (X). Resisting poison requires a Str roll with a
modifier. The victim must roll each Time Interval; until
he succeeds, he suffers the effect each Time Interval. Poi-
sons are counteracted with a Mnd roll using the Healing
skill. Examples:
Snake Poison (-2). Effect: Lose 1 End. Time Interval: 1
minute. Duration: 1 hour or until victim dies.
Spider Venom (-1). Effect: Lose 1 Agi. At -2 Agi the
victim is paralyzed, at -5 she is dead. Time Interval: 10
minutes. Duration: 1d6 hours.

5 – Heroism and Experience
Adventurers receive 1-2 Her in game when they:
• Overcome a very difficult obstacle
• Defeat a particularly strong opponent
• Role-play well
• Role-play, or are hindered by, their Concept’s Definition
Players should receive 1-4 Heroism per session.
Adventurers receive Experience:
• At the end of each session (1 Exp)
• At the end of the adventure (1-2 Exp)
• When they achieve a major goal (1 Exp)
6 – Personalizing and Skinning
Adventurers! is a generic game; to enjoy it fully, players
and GMs must customize the Powers, Minions, Items and
Relics to reflect their specific setting.
Power Groups. In certain settings not all powers are
available to all characters. GM should define a list of avai-
lable ones for types of heroes. Example:
Technomancy. Technomancers can use ancient devices
to produce magic-like effects. They need a Power Item
(any one) to use their abilities.
Technomancy Spheres: All except Summoning and
Transmutation
Damage (Energy Blast). The character’s Power Item emits
a fiery beam.
Illusion (Holograms). The Power Item can produce quasi-
solid holograms. Limit: illusions have End 1.
Protection (Phasing Device). The character goes “out of
phase” avoiding attacks. Can be used to make short range
teleport jumps, rolling at -2. Limit: personal only.
Minions. Minions are under the player’s control. They
receive half the Experience the owning character does.
Minions must have a background. Examples below refer
to creatures in the Creature Cards.
Cat Familiar. For a wizard hero, see Familiar.
Domesticated Wolf. For a ranger hero, see Wolf.
Faithful Squire. For a knight hero, see Warrior.
Relics, Holdings and Items. Relics can be granted by
the Relic Skill or found as treasure/rewards in an adventu-
re. Some of them are cursed.
Ancient Amulet. +2 base Heroism.
Knightly Panoply. Warhorse, heavy armor, shield and
spear, all blessed by a priest.
Magical Sword. +1 Att, +1 Dmg, critical failure: 2-3.
Shop in the City. Run by a clerk, generates 3d6x2
Coins between adventures.
Small Ship. Manned by minimal crew (6 sailors).
Focus. Gems, prayer beads.
Power Armor. Wizard’s robe, magic jewel.
Power Weapon. Staff, wand, sacrificial dagger, holy
symbol, ancient technological device, gizmo.
Power Shield. Rune-engraved shield, magic bracers,

ring of arcane defense, force projector.
Potions are made with the Healing (A) Skill. A healer
knows one potion recipe per Mnd point, others can be
found during the game.
Blade Poison (-1). Smeared on weapons. Effect: lose 1
End. Time Int: 1 round. Dur: 6 Rounds, Cost: 8 Coins.
Explosive Potion. Att: Agi+1, Range 5, +2 Dmg, Burst
3, can set Fire (-1), Cost: 12 Coins.
Sleeping Draught (-2). Poured in food. Effect: fall
asleep for 1d6 hours. Time Int: 5 min, Cost: 6 Coins.
7 – Scale
Adventurers! rules can be used to handle characters,
vehicles, armies and large organizations in a uniform way.
They all use the same Stats and mechanics, only they have
a different meaning. The Str of a character is his muscle
power, while the Str of an army identifies its fighting pro-
wess as a military force.
This is represented in game by the Scale (see table) and
the Scale Weapon Special Abilities. Relationships between
creatures of the same Scale are handled with the normal
rules (for example mass battles). A creature’s attacks are
considered made at its Scale. A creature cannot directly
affect another with a bigger Scale, unless it has a special
way to do so. The commonest is a Scale Weapon (Scale),
which can damage opponents of a different Scale.
Example. A tank, Scale (Vehicle) is only damaged by
another Vehicle or a Scale Weapon (Vehicle), for example a
panzerfaust. A tank’s attacks are made at Vehicle Scale.
Attacks against Smaller Scale Opponents. A Scale
attack can affect an opponent up to one Scale smaller (e.g.
Vehicle against Character): it suffers -2 Att but deals +2
Dmg, Greater Scale attacks ignore lower Scale armor.
Scale Example
Character Hero, horse, typical NPC.
Vehicle Carriage, car, plane, small spaceship.
Large Vehicle Warship, dreadnought, large spaceship.
Army Legion, tank division, rebel band.
Organization State, guild, cult, corporation, news
network
8 – Creature Special Abilities
Creatures are detailed on Creature Cards. Heroism of cre-
atures doesn’t follow the normal rules and is assigned by the
GM. Here is a list of the creatures’ Special Abilities.
Area Attack (X, Y). The monster attacks with Att X all
targets in Burst Y. It rolls for Att only once.
Charge (X). If the creature can move at least 10 yards
before attacking it receives X Att modifier and the blow
has special effects.
Constrict (X). If the monster hits the victim it doesn’t
Adventurers! Revised Edition
deal damage but constricts her. The victim must make
a Str (X) roll each turn or suffer 1 Dmg. She can break
free by winning an opposed Str roll (the constrictor has
Advantage).
Entangle (X). The monster’s attack doesn’t harm the
victim but immobilizes her unless she wins an opposed
roll on X. Those entangled suffer -3 to all physical actions,
including Att and Def. They can break free by winning
another opposed roll (which takes a full round).
Extra Attacks (X, Y). The monster makes X additional
attacks, with Y modifier
Fear (X). The creature causes fear. See Hazards.
Group (X attk, Y). This creature is a swarm or a large
group of creatures. It can make X attacks per round, but
its strength is in numbers; for each Y End lost, it suffers
specific penalties.
Initiative (X). The creature is very fast or slow and recei-
ves a modifier to all Initiative rolls.
Invulnerability. The creature can’t be harmed by nor-
mal means. Usually it has one or more Weaknesses which
can be exploited to defeat it.
Infection (X, Y). If someone is killed by an enemy with
Infection, roll two dice, if the total is X or more, he comes
back to un-life after Y, as the same basic type of undead
that killed him. If the roll is a Critical Success the victim
comes back as a Lord of the same species.
Life Drain. Each time the monster causes an End loss to
a foe, it gains that many End itself.
Pack Fighter. This creature is good at fighting in a
group. It grants +1 Att to allies for Multiple Attackers, and
adds the Multiple Attackers bonus to Def as well.
Poison (X). The creature delivers a particular type of
poison (See Hazards).
Regeneration (X). The creature can make a Str (X) roll
each round, on a success it regenerates 1 End.
Resistance/Weakness (X, attack type). The creature
receives a X modifier to Def against a specific attack type.
Scale (X). The creature has a Scale other than Character.
Spread Illness (X). The creature spreads a particular
illness (see Hazards).
Undead. Undead have a Weakness (-1) versus anything
holy (water, symbols, places and so on). They don’t need
to eat, sleep or breathe.
8 – Customizing Creatures
Creatures Stats on Cards represent average specimen. You
can customize them, applying the following templates.
Champion. Her = Mnd+1, End+2.
Chief. +1 Str, +1 Mnd, Her = Mind, Advanced Charisma.
Giant. +1 Str, +2 End.
Fanatic. +1 Att, 1 extra Atk, -2 Def.
Undead/Construct. +1 Str, +2 End, Resistance, We-
akness.
Strong. +1 Str, +1 Def, +3 End.
2
Veteran. +1 End, one additional Skill.
9 – Vehicles
Stats and Piloting. Vehicles have Stats like characters
(see Creature Cards), representing both crew and vehicle.
They are piloted with Agi rolls. If the pilot’s Agi is higher
than the vehicle’s, use the pilot’s. Ranges of weapons aren’t
in yards but in abstract units, relative to the vehicle’s scale.
Repair. A Mnd (Crafting) roll fixes one End lost by a
vehicle, two with a Critical Success. Each roll requires a
number of hours equal to the vehicle’s full End (there’s no
limit to the number of repair attempts that can be made).
A vehicle reduced to 0 End is wrecked.
Maneuvers. During fights the pilot of a vehicle can per-
form a maneuver (i.e. loops, braking and so on). He must
roll on Agi (-2) (Mobility applies). If successful the vehicle
receives +2 to Att or Def roll till the pilot’s next action.
With a natural 2-4 the maneuver is awkward and the vehi-
cle suffers -2 to Att and Def till the pilot’s next action.
Pursuits and Dogfights. During Pursuits the fugitive
and the pursuers make opposed Long Tasks (usually 4
Tokens), based on Agi (Mobility applies). The first one
to succeed at the Long Task accomplishes his goal: the
fugitive shakes off the pursuer or the pursuer catches the
fugitive. During rounds of Pursuit normal attacks are
made, but whoever has the higher number of Tokens has
advantage in one roll of choice.
10 – Mass Battles
You can use the following rules to handle large battles
with hundreds of opponents. Armies have the same stats
as characters, Str, Agi, Mnd but are on Army Scale. Com-
bat is run as for characters but armies usually have the
Group Special Ability. The length of a Mass Battle combat
round is several hours. Leaders’ capabilities are subsu-
med in the Mnd of the army, but hero-led armies can use
the leading hero’s Mnd and Her. Heroes can affect the
outcome of a battle with their deeds, each deed giving a
modifier to the Att or Def of the army for a battle round.
Heroes’ Actions Modifiers
Intelligence (Stealing enemy plans) Advantage in Att
roll, +2 Initiative
Deed (killing a champion) +1 to +4 Att
Position (fortification, higher +1 to +4 Def
ground)
Surprise (night attack) Additional Atk
Morale (flying the banner on the +1 to +3 Her
front lines)
Recovery is handled as per the character rules, represen-
ting the army medics curing wounded soldiers and routed
troops rejoining the ranks. Ignore the Sleep rules and the
use of the Healing skill.

of attack.
Enc X. This item has an Encumbrance value of X.
Modification: A modification is a particular ability you can apply to an-
other item of a specific type. It influences the price. Normally an item can
only have one Modification.

With a double 6 you also gain +1 Dmg.
Power Items. Power items are special implements (magic wands and
staffs, psionic circlets, mage robes and so on) which require a Power Skill
to be used.

cle, Large Vehicle, Army, Organization. A weapon with Scale Weapon (X)
can damage creatures up to that Scale.
X/Y. As in Str/Agi, use the better Stat to calculate Att.
