By the way I absolutely love this ruleset, everything one needs is in here and so quick
That’s awesome to hear—we’re very proud of the mechanics!
Small suggestion for the Character pamphlet: If the d40 name list went from 10 - 49 it might be quicker for beginners to understand.
Very good point! Thank you!
My eyes are getting old so I was making my own high-contrast monochrome character sheet, but I can't seem to track down the Ghoul SC 700 font you used for the headings...Could you please advise where I might find it? Thanks!
It used to be offered for free, back when we were making Vindjsäl. But unfortunately, it seems it’s not as available nowadays. It can be purchased here: https://creativemarket.com/MehmetRehaTugcu/1470012-Ghoul-Brush-Font
Thanks! Graphic design is my passion!
Great timing! I just started playing Vindsjäl with a new group where a couple of windsouls are new to Swedish. Looks like we can easily jump over to this material and continue in English. Great job tweaking the rules as well!
That's great timing indeed! So glad to hear that you're enjoying Vindsjäl and that this material might help you out. Thanks for the rules feedback too, we’re really proud of the new system.
This looks lovely. Thank you so much for making this available to all of us, Blackfisk team!
You're very welcome! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed it.
Absolutely entrancing! It looks great, has lovely worldbuilding, and I dig the simple rules that nonetheless drive the story forward. This solarpunk vibe is 100% what I'm look for in RPGs and books nowadays, I read everything through within minutes and wanted more immediately
Your words are incredibly encouraging! We can’t wait to share more with you in the future.
