Loner: World Builder's Guide

Build worlds that push back. Loner: World Builder's Guide is a toolkit for settings that don't just sit there waiting to be described. Sketch a haunted megacity, a crumbling empire, or something with no name yet, and this guide gives you the pieces to build a world that argues back with your Protagonist. Fourth edition brings the Living World system in line with the rest of Loner: same tags, same Oracle, same rules you already know. No new subsystem, no extra dice. Just your existing tools, pointed at the setting instead of the character. Define the themes, genres, and conflicts that shape every scene Build factions, NPCs, and locations with real teeth Run the Oracle and D66 tables to keep your setting as unpredictable as your story Adapt an existing setting for solo play without rebuilding it from scratch Let the world shift, grow, and break because of what your Protagonist does Cover and internal artwork generated with Seedream This work is released under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License.
