EdgeWise

EdgeWise is a fast, flexible, and simple fiction-first adventure game where the story drives play, not the rules. It uses a simple dice pool mechanic where everything revolves around the character's capabilities.

Characters are very simple. Pick a role based on the setting, add a couple traits which describe them further, pick some setting specific gear and optionally add an ability. That's it. A 3x5 note card is all you need.

Bring your setting, create some characters, and go!

Check out Silverfort: The Last Outpost. It references Heroic Tales, but includes a conversion section for EdgeWise.
