Urban Shadows – Second Edition – Core Rulebook
The streets bleed shadows as the supernatural politics of the city threaten to swallow you whole. Will you suffer as the savior for those who don’t have enough, or take advantage of the weakness in friend and foe alike? Will you fight the darkness… or give in for power? Urban Shadows is an urban fantasy tabletop roleplaying game in which mortals and monsters vie for control of a modern-day city in a political battleground layered just under the reality we think we know. Vampires, faeries, hunters, and wizards fight to carve out a piece of the streets and skyscrapers, ready to make deals with all those who have something to offer. In this book, you’ll find:
- Twelve unique character playbooks, each tuned to put your characters at the center of an urban fantasy story driven by allegiances, debts, and status.
- Four supernatural Circles—Mortalis, Night, Wild, and Power—whose nightly politics fill the city with dramatic twists and intriguing NPCs.
- Clearly defined mechanics push the fiction forward every time a player rolls the dice, advancing your group’s tale at every turn.
- Detailed advice for the Master of Ceremonies, the player running the game, including two city guides—Chicago and Santiago—packed with story hooks.
- All-new mechanics for backroom deals and faction play that make the nightly politics of the city real for players and NPCs alike.
