Thieves of the Tome / We Stole a Tome... / Lawrenceville RPG Day
Details
Your crew broke into a magical library to steal power back from an oligarchy that's been hoarding it. The good news: it worked. The bad news: none of you understand the magic you just walked out with.
We Stole Tomes and We Don't Know What We're Doing! is a Thieves of the Tome one-shot for 3–5 players — an acid-punk heist comedy where your spells come from real books, and their effects are anyone's guess until you cast them.
- Characters and spells built together at the table, not before it
- Magic drawn from physical books players bring to the session
- Acid-punk chaos with unpredictable, often hilarious results
- Built for a table that leans into improv and going with it. Succeed and Fail forward together!
The tomes are stolen. What they do: still up for debate.
Bring one physical book from your own shelf with at least 7 clearly marked chapters or sections — it becomes part of the crew's magic at the table. No RPG experience needed; everything else is built together during the session.
