What it is about

Ironsworn is a fantastic game to begin with, so why would one want to add something extra to it? Good question! The standard setting of Ironsworn assumes that you play in the Ironlands, a forbidding place of fantasy and horror. If you look at the map provided there, it is full of adventurous land, containing mountains, marshes, rivers and coastal area. Your people have arrived in that harsh area. But, where did those settlers come from and, more importantly, how did they get to the Ironlands? One safe assumption would be that it was by sea. If you add this supplement, you are interested to explore what that sea could contain. Is it as foreboding as the Ironlands itself? Is it filled with extraordinary life and riches, waiting to be exploited? Or is it dangerous in its own right? Let’s play to find out! This is still in development. It currently contains: Descriptions of three regions of the sea Three truths about the sea. 4 new encounters fitting the Sea Extra stat track, Air, and fitting suffering moves, for travelling under sea. Missing: 1. Custom Assets fitting the theme 2. Custom moves added for underwater combat and combat in ships . 3. Probably some extra bulk, when I have time. This work is licensed CC-BY4.0, as is the Original Ironsworn by Shawn Tomkin.
