What it is about
Defeated in battle, your enemies become stronger. They seek you out to finish you. You must destroy your nemesis before they defeat you, while not getting consumed by your thirst for revenge. The only hope is to swear an iron vow to find your enemy and win in the field of battle to regain what you have lost. This is Ironsworn Nemesis, a fan supplement for Shawn Tomkin's Ironsworn and Ironsworn: Starforged . It is based, with no affiliation, off the mechanics of Warner Brothers' Nemesis System, made famous in the games Shadow of Mordor (2014) and Shadow of War (2017) and community-made mods like Shadow of Skyrim (2022) for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (2011). This is a 5-page supplement in which you will find: A prototype ruleset 4 small oracle tables (1d6) A worksheet to track Nemeses bonds Please let me know your feedback so that I can improve this supplement (both in terms of writing and content/mechanics). I am very new to Ironsworn as I discovered the system last weekend (FEB 2023). I am now am absolutely in love with it! Leave a comment below or launch a discussion in the Ironsworn discord.
