Sorcery and violent passion in a world of desire.
The Bloody-Handed Name of Bronze is a roleplaying game of sexy, bloody tales of cunning, glory, and a universe with a sense of humor.
Players alternate, depending on the circumstances within the game, between portraying their character and the Names of the World, from venal courtier, to stout and storied city wall, to the thundering voice of a volcano.
Play is designed to feel like a Conan or Dying Earth short story. Your character might recur with their destiny intact, or you might wish to bring in new fated heroes and namedealers.
Play works one-on-one or with up to four players, total and takes from an hour for a one-on-one game to three hours for four players.
