About Black Powder and Brimstone
The Orthodox and Puritans of the Church of the Sacred Blood are stuck in a stalemate of a war that has raged for decades. You are a desperate adventurer stuck in the middle of the conflict desperately trying to survive, and maybe even profit, amongst the chaos and destruction.
Wield unique and characterful weapons, each with their own rules and advantages on top of the damage die. The arsenal includes the dreaded Black Powder weapons - infernal devices that ignore all armor on a hit and can cause as much mayhem and destruction to the wielder as the intended target.
As well as the mortal weapons, there are forbidden and powerful magics that can warp reality as easily as an artist paints a canvas. But beware, for magic is as dangerous as it is powerful. If you use it in front of the wrong people, then be prepared to deal with the dreaded agents of the Inquisition.
This action packed, rules light, art heavy OSR game offers swashbuckling adventure and gothic folk horror in an unholy blend. A treasure chest of character options, items, locations, adventures, and enemies both human and monstrous waiting to be opened.
