What is it about?

Ebon Fantasy adapts the Effect Engine with ideas from Aperita Arcana and moves away from strict compatibility with classic adventures. Essence presents its playable core, including every class and a selection of specialties, kindreds, and backgrounds. The publisher declares two alternative licensing routes for the text of this specific product.

02

At the table

Choose a kindred, background, and class, develop specialties, and use the effects rules during adventures. Essence covers character advancement from level one through level ten.
