Skyrim TTRPG

Welcome to Cyrodiil!

Recently I downloaded Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim to finally take a crack at one of the most well known video games ever made. I thought a lot of the mechanics were super cool, but I wanted to try and make it in my own style (and fix up some of the things that bugged me). This aligned perfectly with the Husky Jam, and thus, this game was born!

The goal of this game is to make a TTRPG that emulates Skyrim's gameplay as closely as possible while not being too hard to understand. Some of the crunch was unavoidable, but I tried to decrease it as much as possible. Of course, this is but the first draft, so any suggestions to make it even simpler would be welcome! I only had 48 hours to write this whole PDF as per jam rules, so there are a few links to the elder scrolls wiki thrown in there to make the game at least somewhat playable.

Finally, in terms of crediting, this game is obviously heavily inspired by Bethesda Studios' Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and utilizes a lot of their content such as weapons and alchemy ingredients. While all of the core mechanics of the system are written and designed by me, the specific items are written by Bethesda. The details were found online on the Elder Scrolls Wiki. Due to this, I completely understand if I am disqualified from the jam in your eyes! Don't worry, it is completely prize-less and unranked, but even as such that is understandable. I just wanted to use it as a motivator to make this game!

That all being said, I hope you enjoy this TTRPG! I hope to flesh it out more in the future.

Pruzah Wundunne!
