The Roleplaying Games section is now updated with two new volumes for Lex Arcana - An Empire without End RPG: Encyclopedia Arcana and the adventure book Mysteries of the Empire I, expected to release in October 2020. They will follow the Lex Arcana Core Rulebook and the Demiurge Screen, releasing in September 2020.
Lex Arcana merges history, mythology and legend in a unique setting where Roman imperial legions clash with barbaric hordes on the field of battle, while ancient monsters, mystical powers and nameless cults threaten the rule of the Caesars from within. To enjoy Lex Arcana players are not required to have a degree in Roman history: the world has taken a different turn from what you may have read in history books.
Encyclopaedia Arcana is the definitive Lex Arcana setting compendium, with innumerable ideas for players, giving them detailed descriptions of the 20 Provinces of the Empire and communication routes connecting them. The 224-page hardcover volume also includes information about the structure of Imperial organization, bureaucracy and legions, including the Cohors Auxiliaria Arcana. Players will find a wealth of details about the Roman culture, economy and society, and detailed entries on "Medicamenta," used during this historical period. The Encyclopedia also presents a detailed section dedicated to the secrets of divination, magic, and prophecies. In this volume, players can also find many new maps showing military camps, harbors and other locations.
Mysteries of the Empire I is a collection of 10 short adventures, written by some of the best RPG authors. It offers a wide range of dangerous challenges, epic deeds and world-shaking missions, suitable to be played as individual playing sessions, or included as episodes in a larger campaign. From the western beaches of Hispania to the eastern borders of Thracia, the Custodes will travel the length and breadth of the Empire.
