Inevitable: A Doomed Arthurian Western RPG Arrives This October

Following a successful Kickstarter, SoulMuppet Publishing will be releasing Inevitable: A Doomed Arthurian Western RPG this Fall. The game places players in the roles of knights defending a doomed land and king. Inevitable is slated to arrive in October and you can check out the free quickstart at DriveThruRPG.

About the game:

Knights and wizards have defended the Kingdom of Myth for centuries. These lands have known peace and prosperity, but soon they shall lie barren.

The Prophets have declared that your city shall burn and Myth will fall. All those who follow your King shall die. It is INEVITABLE.

But you shall defy fate. Myth will not end while you bear arms.

You will fail, but as long as there are still stories, they will sing of you!

Inevitable is a new roleplaying game system from SoulMuppet Publishing, the creators and publishers behind Orbital Blues, Best Left Buried, Stygian Library and dozens of other RPG systems and adventures.

The book is a focused system for a play-to-lose Arthurian Western campaign. But what does this mean?

• Arthurian: Sad knights. A king who is doing his best (but badly). Foolish virtue quests doomed to fail. Women in lakes.
• Western: Sweeping deserts. Dusty heroes wearing big boots, bigger hats. Can of beans cooked on a campfire. Six shooters.
• Play-To-Lose: Your kingdom is going to be destroyed. It is Inevitable. Play to find out how, but there’s no way to win.
• Focused System: Your characters serve the King of Myth, and you are trying to prevent the destruction of his kingdom and your civilisation. The system is linked intrinsically to telling this story in this system, and finely tuned to create the perfect Arthurian Western campaign
• Campaign: While Inevitable provides options for one-shots and short campaigns (including the one in our Quickstart), the material in the book supports a full length campaign with minimal prep. A traditional Inevitable campaign runs for 3-6 months, choosing 3 of the available 6 Dooms. However, should you choose to use all the material and embark on this quixotic, almost impossible quest to save the world you could well be playing for years.
