About the game:
Daughters of Freya, raise your shields!
Ragnarök rages. The cosmic tree Yggdrasil burns. The forces of the Fenrir Empire bleed life from the Nine Realms to fuel their growth. The mightiest men cannot stand against them.
Yet the Shield Maidens stand strong.
Empowered by a ferocious spirit to stand against oppression and renew the cycle of ages, Shield Maidens fuse magic and technology to channel the might of the gods. Wielding powerful Guardian Shields, neon emblems of undying honour, Shield Maidens dedicate their warrior souls to destroying the Imperial boot that crushes humanity by the neck.
Shield Maidens is a game of women standing shoulder to shoulder with their sisters against the forces allied against all humanity. Create a diverse, inclusive cast of characters and dive into an action-packed roleplaying game with quick, easy-to-learn rules that emphasise collaboration and teamwork. Be wary, the enemies of Midgard are many, and the gods will not help you. Only the mightiest women will be able to live on forever in the tales and songs of the Shield Maidens!
Odin slumbers in the sunken halls of Asgard, and the Pure are stirring in their burnished realm as Fenrir’s grip grows ever tighter.
Delve into the histories of realms of gods and mortals, using the knowledge to right the wrongs of the universe, topple empires and slay manipulative gods. Learn the true capabilities of the Guardian Shield.
Be aware, sisters, that the creatures of Yggdrasil are watching, and they have no love for humanity. Detailed within the Gamemaster’s Guide, the Norns pluck the strings of fate, dragons roost amongst broken stars and the Jötunn yearn for battle. Only those willing to stand against tyranny will live on in the sagas…
