Fantasy AGE

Your Adventure Begins Here!

Overview

Fantasy AGE is a tabletop roleplaying game of class-based sword-and-sorcery adventure, designed by Chris Pramas and published by Green Ronin Publishing. It first released as the Fantasy AGE Basic Rulebook in 2015, adapting the
Adventure Game Engine (AGE) https://groupfinder.gg/library/adventure-game-engine-age
that Pramas built for the
Dragon Age Roleplaying Game https://groupfinder.gg/library/dragon-age-rpg
into a standalone, setting-neutral fantasy toolkit rather than a licensed tie-in. A second edition followed in February 2023, staying roughly 90% compatible with the original while folding in years of supplement material and adding two new subsystems, Peril and Daring. The system is built on the Adventure Game Engine (AGE), the same engine Green Ronin uses for
Dragon Age https://groupfinder.gg/library/dragon-age-rpg
,
Modern AGE https://groupfinder.gg/library/modern-age
, and
Blue Rose https://groupfinder.gg/library/blue-rose-rpg
.

Description

Players build adventurers from one of four classes - Envoy, Mage, Rogue, or Warrior, covering the social, magical, sneaky, and fighty corners of a party respectively - and one of nine Ancestries (Draak, Dwarf, Elf, Gnome, Goblin, Halfling, Human, Orc, or Wildfolk), a term Green Ronin adopted across its AGE games to sidestep the baggage "race" carries in older fantasy RPGs. The Game Master (GM) runs a setting of the table's own choosing rather than a fixed world. Fantasy AGE was built from the start as a toolkit for running any sword-and-sorcery campaign rather than one specific IP. Sessions lean on the AGE system's stunt-heavy combat to keep fights fast and cinematic, while the optional Peril and Daring systems ask a table to decide up front how much extra swing they want between a party's best and worst moments.

Statblock Maker Pro is a free, always-online 5e D&D toolset with no account, no login, and nothing saved to a server. It covers the full prep-to-table pipeline: a creature/statblock maker and item maker (2014 and 2024 rules), a spell creator, a character creator, and a token stamp for VTT art. On the table side, the encounter maker and initiative tracker run combat live, with a combat difficulty calculator that shows 2014 and 2024 difficulty math side by side and a Monte Carlo battle forecast to sanity-check a fight before you run it.

The World of RPGs

English
Interviews
This podcast is about tabletop role-playing games around the world. In every episode, I interview RPG enthusiasts and professionals from a non-English speaking country about what games they play, what unique RPGs exist in their country, and how new people get into the hobby. Interviewees include regular gamers, club organizers, game shop owners, creators of actual play videos, RPG authors, and gaming studios.  While some places are known for their large role-playing scene and have a lot of local RPG systems, other regions of the world have smaller scenes and might not even have a single RPG in the local language. Every regular episode ends with a teaser for the next country – an excerpt from an actual play recording in that country’s language. The aim of this podcast is to broaden our horizon and find out about RPGs from all over the world. Enjoy!
