Following a successful Kickstarter, Acheron Books has released an English language edition of an interesting looking 5E supplement. Brancalonia is being touted as a “spaghetti fantasy” campaign book inspired by the folklore and history of Italy. The 198 page PDF is available at DriveThruRPG for $15.00.
About the book:
Based on Italian tradition, folklore, history, landscapes, literature, and pop culture, Brancalonia is a Campaign Setting for the 5th Edition of the most famous role-playing game ever.
Enter the Kingdom of Brancalonia, a land full of pitfalls and money-making opportunities. Create your own band of Knaves, enlist in a free company, get yourself some well-paid jobs, deliver a fist-and-knife buffet to those who have it coming.
Once you have collected a tidy sum and somewhat climbed the ranks of your company, you’ll be ready to try your luck in that final job that could enable you to go out in a blaze of glory…
After all, what could possibly go wrong?”
