Fate of the Norns (Norse Fantasy)

The sun and moon have been devoured and the world tree shudders as the realms are cloaked in the long night of Fimbulwinter. Brother kills brother and families are sundered as a great war cry echos throughout every corner of the word. Heroes are needed to challenge the dark tide while the gods make ready for their final battle. Both mortal and immortal alike know the signs of their impending doom, the only question now is whether Destiny can be changed.

Over the next few months I'll be running through my Ireland Campaign, running sessions bi-weekly depending on availability. We've already been through two sessions where the characters are mercenaries in the service of King Olaf of Dyflin. Having mostly survived a face to face with one of the Tuatha De Danann the party is now in a place of honor among the army, placed in the vanguard against the horrors of Isle. Can you follow fully in the footsteps of the Milesians and drive The Folk back to their sidhe's or is the Isle of Destiny a grim portent of things to come.

I'd like to welcome my previous players back first but we still have at least one opening left from the last session. Just send me a message if any new players are interested and I'll be happy to keep you updated on any open room at the table.

Fate of the Norns is different from many traditional tabletop games that I've played , instead of rolling dice you play from your characters Runes, representing your character's experience and destiny. Runes are drawn during every combat round and are played like a card game, using different abilities or chaining several together to strengthen one. Be careful though for those same runes represent your characters life essence, and in the heat of battle you may loose the one rune you were counting on. Death is not truly the end though, since every character you're able to get into the Heavens earns you greater options for your next character, perhaps even someday bringing them back as one of the Einherjar. Be bold, Die gloriously, Earn you place in the Halls of the slain.

I have plenty of premade characters available but if anyone wants to create their own character let me know, I always show up a little earlier and have added a little more time to this session for character creation and learning the system.

It can take a little while to get a hand of the system so to help out I've provided a link to the publishers own video tutorial that focuses on the playmat which I've found to be the most complicated part for new players. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FZ8dTEWwtc
