Ronin RPG

The air in Kage no Shima is thick with the scent of blood and the promise of violence.

Welcome to RŌNIN, a rules-lite tabletop RPG set in a mythical, samurai-inspired world. Based on the MÖRK BORG system, RŌNIN is a game of honour, combat, and adventure.

​In a world ravaged by an eternal eclipse and overrun by supernatural creatures known as yōkai, players take on the roles of forgotten ronin, shinobi, onmyoji, and more as they seek to restore their honour and defeat the forces of darkness.

The Land of the Endless Night, my friend, is a place of DARKNESS and FILTH.

A richly detailed island that blends Edo Period Japan with fantasy elements, creating a unique and immersive world that is perfect for players of all levels.

ay be an old book filled with information about the phase of the moon and the tides, a newsletter that keeps escaping your junk mail filter, or an indie gaming zine thrust into your hands one day. No matter its format, the origin of this benign text is unknown to you for now. Once in your hands, however, you begin to notice oddities: Pages glisten in moonlight; a sound mimics your favourite bird call; pictures move when you're not looking. You can’t discard the Almanac for long; it always comes back to you.

You are sure there's more to uncover—either about the book or the person(s) who sent it to you—but you'll need help. The first hidden message you discover tells you how to contact other werewolves with an Almanac: securely, secretly, and—if you choose—anonymously. Together, you can find out what it means to walk the Sanguine Paths.
