BETA TEST
Ninjas of the Jade Forest
A Storytelling Game of Cunning and Wit

Designed by Zachary & Jannica Sophia Porcu
​Run by Zachary Porcu

"A sword by itself rules nothing. It only comes alive in skilled hands."
— Sir Te, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

​Ninjas of the Jade Forest is an intensely creative cooperative storytelling game for 2–4 players. Play together as group of powerful warriors sent on deadly-dangerous missions to save the Jade Forest. In this low-prep, short-form game, each session of play consists of a single, elaborate fight scene meant to evoke the exhilaration of kung-fu movies. The success or failure of the mission affects the world at large, influencing subsequent missions and ultimately the fate of the Jade Forest. Are you ready to test your kung-fu?

Lady Blackbird
An RPG of Swashbuckling, Skyships, ​and Sorcery

Designed by John Harper
Run by Alexi Sargeant
​Lady Blackbird is on the run from an arranged marriage to Count Carlowe. She hired a smuggler skyship, The Owl, to take her from her palace on the Imperial world of Ilysium to the far reaches of the Remnants, so she could be with her once secret lover: the pirate king Uriah Flint.

HOWEVER, just before reaching the halfway point of Haven, The Owl was pursued and captured by the Imperial cruiser Hand of Sorrow, under charges of flying a false flag.
​
EVEN NOW, Lady Blackbird, her bodyguard, and the crew of The Owl are detained in the brig, while the Imperial commander runs the smuggler ship’s registry over the wireless. It’s only a matter of time before they discover the outstanding warrants and learn that The Owl is owned by none other than the infamous outcast, Cyrus Vance.

How will Lady Blackbird and the others escape the Hand of Sorrow?
What dangers lie in their path?
Will they be able to find the secret lair of the pirate king? if they do, will Uriah Flint accept Lady Blackbird as his bride? By the time they get there, will she want him to?

Go. Play. And find out.
