Knave 2.0

  The kickstarter is on for Knave 2.0!

  If you don't recognize it, Knave is the work of Ben Milton (of the Youtube channel Questing Beast) .  The original Knave, along with his Maze Rats, is an all-time best seller at Drive-Thru RPG.  Knave distills the adventuring rules of D&D down to their bare essence in a very playable manner in just a few information-rich (yet readable) pages.  The rest of the small booklet is enough random tables to run a game with, especially when combined with the massive random tables in Maze Rats.

  Knave 2.0 expands on the idea in deluxe printed (or pdf) form, with a LOT more tables.

  My favorite of the 100 random spells is Catherine:  You summon an attractive young woman who will answer questions and help the party with a few non-dangerous tasks if asked politely.



Even if you're not interested in backing the project, if you like role playing games, check out his Glatisant newsletter.  It's a free monthly roundup of the best of the internet musings on fantasy & sci-fi role playing.
