RUSTIC FANTASY
Legend In The Mist is inspired by works of fiction about everyday heroes from rural communities that embark on a journey such as The Lord Of The Rings, Princess Mononoke, Wheel of Time, and even The Wind In The Willows.
- Unlikely heroes: Start off in your village or remote region and contend with everyday problems, just before a darker danger looms.
- Journeys in the countryside and wilderness: scout, explore, traverse landscapes dark or beautiful, discover ruins, or find forgotten landmarks.
- Camping and fellowship: Set camp, train, craft items and brew potions, and build relationships with your fellow travelers.
- Dangerous encounters: Face unscrupulous travelers and strange creatures, and learn about their sorcerous ways and weaknesses.
- Ancient lore, crafty factions: Discover the great world beyond, the powers that be, and the dark past that started it all.
- More than just battles: Overcome challenges through battle, magic, wits, physical feats, charm, cunning – or love, gossip, or great cooking – anything is possible.
- Carve your fate: Make hard choices that will shape you. Will you become the hero to save the realm, or just a traveler passing by? The choice is yours.
