Danse Macabre
A downloadable game
After centuries of war, famine, and plague, Death is sated. God, in His ineffable wisdom, has removed the Reaper from the field. Now those who die the False Death resurrect and walk again, caught in a cycle of rebirth which leaves them horribly corrupted and transformed.
Monstrosities stalk the land.
Take up arms as The Last Supplicant and delve into dark ruins and face terrible, corrupted creatures in search of absolution through True Death.
You have died before. You shall again.
Danse Macabre is a Medieval Horror TTRPG for one Player and one Chronicler featuring streamlined PC & NPC creation, fast and brutal combat, a rich world of historical fiction to explore, and a d666 table of Corruptions -- strange and terrible mutations (that's 216 total!).
