You're dragged into a treacherous fantasy world made from your own fears, doubts and desires. There's only one way to escape - but with limitless adventure within your grasp, would you even want to? In DIE: The Roleplaying Game, you play a group of authentically flawed people from the real world who gather together to play a game and are trapped in a magical realm. What are they prepared to sacrifice to escape? What are they prepared to sacrifice to stay?

Built by Kieron Gillen and Stephanie Hans, the creative duo behind the comic of the same name, this 408 page book gives you all the tools you need to build a bespoke world out of the obsessions and dreams of your friends. Five unique character classes drawn from the comic give players access to powers beyond their imagining - bargaining with gods, augmenting their bodies with strange technologies, bending the laws of chance, twisting minds with a word, or channelling their deepest emotions into magical violence. The gamesmaster isn't left out; they get their very own class, the Master, who manipulates the rules of the game that the players are trapped in. DIE: The RPG has everything you need to play or run the game aside from a handful of dice, some friends, and a burning desire to get lost in a hell of your own creation.

You and your friends are dragged into a treacherous fantasy world made from your own fears, doubts and desires. There's only one way to escape - but with limitless adventure within your grasp, would you even want to? DIE is a tabletop roleplaying game about fantasy versus reality, and poses the question of why we play games at all. The comic it's based upon is occasionally jokingly described as "goth Jumanji"; DIE the RPG is designed from the ground up to let a group of players make their own personal version of the comic.

This deluxe edition features the limited run Rian Hughes graphic design. Bound in bookcloth, foil-printed with embossing/debossing and including a protective slipcase.

Burned and Broken is a sourcebook for the Heart roleplaying game with details on how to bring characters from Spire into Heart and how to use the themes of the Ministry in regular campaigns.

Inside, you?ll find:

Heart: The City Beneath is a tabletop roleplaying game about delving into a nightmare undercity that will give you everything you?ve ever dreamed of ? or kill you in the process. It is a dungeon-crawling, story-forward tabletop RPG from the designers of Spire that focuses on what characters have to lose in pursuit of their dreams in the chaotic darkness beneath the world.

What?s in the book?

THE CITY LIVES.

THE CITY SPEAKS IN DOORS AND PATHWAYS.

THE CITY IS DYING.

As dozens of doors to a strange land between dimensions begin to open throughout the Heart, the delvers step through to find the city of Elsewhere in turmoil. The lights which keep them safe are going out one by one. An ocean of vicious darkness roils at the edge of Elsewhere and seeps through to the City Beneath.

Will the delvers save this nexus of worlds?

Inside you?ll find:

Plot your journey into the City Beneath with this beautiful fold-out hex-map and sticker set illustrated by Heart artist Felix Miall. The map itself is large enough to run several campaigns on (assuming you don't mind revisiting old landmarks to see how they've changed and evolved) and the stickers allow your group to make their own version of the Heart with ease.

The map is printed on thick cardboard (akin to a board game) and is 45cm square when unfolded. Each is supplied with two sheets of hex-shaped stickers - a mix of landmarks (each themed after one of the game's Domains) with a blank space to write a name, and connections to stitch them together. This map makes a beautiful centrepiece for your game of Heart, and allows your players to quickly plot out routes and get their bearings in the chaotic environs of the City Beneath. You'll also get access to high-res images of the board and stickers, as well as a digital assets pack optimised for use on Roll20, for use with remote play.

The Heart: a roiling tear of unreality beneath the city of Spire.

Within its borders, there are routes to unknown places, great secrets, shrines to long-dead gods, and monsters the like of which have never been seen on the surface world. In the Heart RPG, players take on the role of delvers ? strange, desperate, broken people exploring the nightmare city in search of the object of their obsessions.

Take your first steps into the City Beneath with this streamlined version of the rules for the Heart RPG. This document includes:

SANCTUM is a sourcebook for the Heart RPG. Inside, you?ll find a guide to building havens with your group to create the basis for an exciting campaign. You?ll also find advice on running haven-based campaigns, special fallout results that reflect your settlement?s trials and tribulations and ways to create and reinforce bonds with the people within.

Finally, you?ll find rules for four new types of angel, the fell-handed messengers of the Heart Itself which infiltrate and smash apart havens. You?ll also enjoy in-character ramblings on them from washed-up pulp fiction author Gris Hannemann who, potentially, invented them to sell more copies of his books. But they?re real now.

A copy of Heart: The City Beneath is required to use the rules and advice in Sanctum.

From the depths of the cursed mass transit network known as the Vermissian, the Ministry of Our Hidden Mistress wages a shadow war against their cruel high elf overlords.

You are part of the Throne Division: cells of black ops paramilitary assets drawn from the people of the Heart. You undertake vital missions in support of the Ministry?s cause, using the miles of twisting tunnels to move secretly through the city.

This sourcebook for the Heart RPG contains expanded and alternative rules for sending your undercity delvers on dangerous missions for the dark elf revolutionary front. You?ll also find information on the factions that make the Vermissian their home, details on Throne Division equipment, a guide to building operations and a line-by-line breakdown of the network.

The DERELICT is a great big beautiful trash rocket smashing through space and it is jam-packed with ORCS, generations upon generations of them, sporing and scrapping, building murderous idols to their mad gods, and praying for DOOM when the Derelict will crash into heaven and disgorge every dead-hard big-toothed bastard in a glorious tide of violence. YOU are an ORC, and you fight and kill and pray and scheme and tinker and howl for a place in heaven.

Written by Grant Howitt and illustrated by ROLLINKUNZ, ORC BORG is loud, over-the-top and obnoxious. It uses the MORK BORG rules-set to make easy-to-run game set in the chaotic Derelict, and includes (but is not limited to): Everything you need to make a crazed alien warrior determined to punch their way to Armageddon. Rules for piloting, fighting and stealing legendary Big Robots such as BANG TEN THOUSAND, MASSIVE PROBLEM, and RUST BITCH. Two types of space magic: runic TECHNOWIZARDRY and good old-fashioned YELL PRAYERS. A D12 weapon table we stretched out to four pages so we could draw the weapons really big. A custom Apocalyptic Prophecy table, which is much more fun than MORK BORG's. Rules for playing a cyborg orc, or ORCBORG, as we call them. Eight musical genres including PIANOHAMMER, TRASH CANNON and DRUM BASTARD. A bestiary including bloodthirsty demons, grotty aliens, cultish humans and rival orcs. ORC BORG is riso-printed, which means it's more vibrant than it has any right to be, and the rough-paper A4 format makes it feel like an edition of the Beano or Dandy. We couldn't be happier with how it looks and feels and we think you'll enjoy it too.

YOU are a Royal - half-magic, half-human. You're one of the court cards from the tarot deck - the impetuous Princess of Wands, the calculating Knight of Pentacles, the empire-building Queen of Wands, and so on. You use magic like a brick through the window of the world. THEY are the Arcane - Death, The Hanged Man, The Devil, The Lovers, The Star. They are reality-bending monsters that wear human skin like a suit. TONIGHT, before dawn, you are going to corner one of them and take their power for your own in a heist the likes of which the worlds have never seen. The city is going to burn. It's going to be beautiful.

ROYAL BLOOD is a rules-light heist roleplaying game for three or more players and a gamesmaster.To play, you'll need a deck of tarot cards and a handful of coins. Download it here. As with all my games, if you can't afford to buy it, drop me an email explaining why and I'll give it to you for free. Or send me a copy of you a game you've written and we'll do a swap.

This slim volume contains rules and guidance on making your own bespoke secret society using some of the non-player characters and locations detailed within.

Each character and location has been lovingly illustrated by Rowan MacColl.

A fantasy-punk RPG about rebellion, brutality and oppression. What are you prepared to sacrifice to get what you deserve?

Take to the sacred streets of New Heaven to fight demons, deal drugs and evade the attentions of a cruel and beautiful serial killer in this campaign frame for Spire. There?s trouble in the bone-strewn streets of New Heaven and the creaking shanties of Perch: addiction to a new drug known as dreck is hitting epidemic levels. Drow are being snatched from the streets and not returning. A serial killer who calls himself The Swan is vivisecting his prey and writing cryptic letters to the Torch, taunting the guard to catch him before he claims another victim. And last week, rumour has it, a demonic incursion tore apart a tower of silence and drove everyone nearby mad.

Enter the Ministry ? sworn to protect the dark elves of Spire and take advantage of every possible opportunity they can find. The players? cell is led into a conspiracy that goes far, far above their heads, and that could change the face of Spire forever. This campaign frame for Spire takes the ideas we developed in Blood and Dust and develops them further ? Eidolon Sky is a series of prompts, suggestions, factions and personalities that players and GMs are free to explore as they wish, culminating in an occult showdown that will determine the future of the city.

Hide your schemes from prying eyes.

The Spire Gamesmaster?s screen not only conceals your notes from inquisitive players, but has everything you need to run a game of Spire condensed into three panels.

Given a run-down gambling hall and a sheaf of newspaper clippings, a ministry cell are tasked with a single objective ? take control of the Silver Quarter. Kings of Silver is a campaign frame ? a way to set up a series of linked games of Spire using the same characters ? set in Spire?s Silver Quarter. Kings of Silver starts with a sheaf of newspaper clippings cut from magazines and newspapers distributed throughout the city.

(We?ve included all 10 as stand-alone images, too, for ease of printing.) The cell are instructed to use the clippings as a starting point to investigate three power-players in the glittering Silver Quarter: Hestra Wander-the-Lost, scandalous media sensation, master seductress and sister to the morose warrior-poet on the city council with the same surname. Lay-Deacon Strides-Out-Harmonious, a wealthy devotee to Father Summer, who has been building heavily-defended temple-casinos throughout the district, and Loq Walks-On-Light, enigmatic ex-military playboy who boasts an increasingly large entourage and some strange philosophies. From there, we adopt a hands-off approach to adventure design. Each of the three main NPCs (and a few other important people) are given full breakdowns and a series of suggested scenes that the GM can weave into the story, and we?ve taken a guess at a few finales that might happen, but we can?t be sure how it will end.

EXTRA STUFF :Kings of Silver also boasts several pages of random tables designed to evoke the atmosphere of the gaudiest district in Spire ? festivals, noble families, street furniture, whatever the gangsters who run the place are doing, and whatever the city guard are doing to keep things ticking over ? six pre-generated characters with Silver-Quarter-ready backstories, and a full list of employees for The Manticore gambling house which the player cell has received as a cover identity. We?re really keen for you to hit the ground running with Spire ? and we?re really excited to share Kings of Silver with you, to make playing as easy and as fun as possible.

Climb aboard the Last Train and steal the secrets of its locomotion. Assassinate the most powerful man in the lawless undercity of Red Row. Defend the wedding of Brother Hellion?s only daughter at the Church of the Gun. Spring a gnoll prisoner-of-war from the best-defended prison in all of Spire.

The missions contain within are:

In Spire, the greatest city on the continent, a mile-high shard of pitted obsidian and black magic, revolution is brewing. A thousand gods bicker and war for control of the countless congregations within Spireƒ??s crumbling walls. The aelfir rule from their frozen palaces and perform festival after festival in honour of their solar masters; the drow, long-subjugated, stitch together scraps of scripture to form sawn-off mystery cults and threadbare churches to illegal goddesses.

Gods of arson, burglary and mugging blossom in the undercity, finding more faithful each day. The crime lords of Red Row flood a city hungry for upheaval with guns, drugs and fighters with nothing to lose but something to prove. The plate-armoured gangster knights of the North Docks fight wars of extortion and leg-breaking from their sacred pubs whilst clinging to a street's worth of territory handed down from their forebears. The Council - unelected and corrupt to the point of uselessness - oversee it all from their triple-warded chamber in the upper city, sending their agents to smash apart insurrection and maintain control. But they fight a losing battle, and the collateral damage will soon become unsustainable. Sin delves deeper into the world of Spire, and includes: Two new classes: the divine confidence trickster Gutter Cleric and the necromantic bureaucrat Mortician Executioner. Extensive sections on the Crime, Order and Religion domains including dozens of new abilities, hundreds of plot hooks and fiction tidbits, and beautiful illustrations by Adrian Stone. Three ready-to-run scenarios, pitching the player characters headlong into a world of squabbling holy orders, mysterious librarians, demonic artefacts, overclocked noir magic, interdimensional breaches and hotwired avatars to death gods.

Delve deeper into the strange world of Spire with our first full-length sourcebook. Strata is the first full-length sourcebook for the Spire roleplaying game.

Written by Grant Howitt and Chris Taylor, and with ten scenarios from a wide variety of other authors, Strata gives more details on the best and worst that the city of Spire has to offer: Two new classes: the purple-prose black-magic pulp fiction occultist Inksmith and the multifaceted and fractured Shadow Agent. Many new extra advances for any class: such as the flower-skinned Druid of the Living Spire, the muckraking Gazetteer, the sigil-scrawling Children of the Runestack and the language-hunting Lexicutioners. Ten scenarios (detailed below), allowing you to start a campaign of Spire easier than ever. More details on the richest and poorest parts of Spire: the shadowed and fecund Garden District, the decrepit grandeur of Ivory Row, the nightmare industrial bowels of the works, the alien luxury of Amaranth, and more. Beautiful full-page, full-colour artwork from Adrian Stone throughout.

The scenarios in Strata are: Better the Devil (by Grant Howitt and Chris Taylor). Forge unusual alliances as House Starys of the drow, long thought fallen, returns to Spire to take control.

The Sulphurous Presses (by Coman Fullard). Given a printing press and some run-down premises in the Works district, the cell must gain dominance over the newspaper market by publishing their own propaganda and sabotaging rival papers. Dark Harvest (by Chris Farnell). After a mission goes wrong, the Ministry bundles the players off to the deep farms of La Grotte du Corde ? but, of course, nothing is what it seems in this idyllic pastoral village. Strata requires a copy of the Spire RPG to use the rules and setting within to the best effect.
