🔥 It's official: the crowdfunding campaign for Sol Tyrannus is started! 🔥

Sol Tyrannus is both a tabletop role-playing game of dark fantasy setting, with its own proprietary narrative system—the Crisis System—and also compatible with Dungeons & Dragons 5e. It draws inspiration from the classic cycles of Conan the Barbarian and Stormbringer but alsothe genre of "peplum" movies about the Classical Age, offering a blend of sword & sorcery and cosmic horror.

The digital core book is divided into three separate documents (Lore, Ruleset: Crisis System, and Ruleset: D&D5e-compatible) and you can purchase only the narrative system bundle (Lore + Ruleset: Crisis System), only the D&D5e bundle (Lore + Ruleset: D&D5e-compatible) or the bundle with both systems (Lore + Ruleset: Crisis System + Ruleset: D&D5e-compatible). The printed book will contain all three texts, not separated.

Players assume the roles of legendary heroes—called Actors—summoned by mystical fateweavers known as Singers, to hold back the slow descent of a world corrupted by the sinister influence of the Purple Sun, a cosmic horror whose very light twists both body and mind. In the world of Akhtun, nowhere is safe: city-states are ruled by mad sorcerer-gods, villages are plagued by monstrous Spawn and ruthless raiders, and wilderness harbors terrors yet to be named, ready to share their Corruption with unsuspecting prey. Cults fester in the shadows, whispering promises of power to the desperate, hastening the world's doom.
