Bonus: Q&A with Tomas Härenstam and Drakar och Demoner / Dragonbane

Show Notes

To tide us over til our next one-shot, here's a bonus episode where our host and GM Fiona interviews interviewing the co-founder and CEO of Free League Publishing, Tomas Härenstam, about the upcoming ‘Dragonbane’ RPG, a reimagining of the influential ‘Drakar och Demoner’.

Drakar och Demoner’ is Scandinavia's first and biggest tabletop RPG, originally launched in 1982. Now, 40 years later, Free League Publishing has announced a brand new and reimagined edition, with one foot firmly planted in the heritage of decades of Swedish gaming and the other in the modern and innovative game design for which Free League Publishing is known worldwide.

Moreover, Drakar och Demoner will be made available to an international audience, under the English title ‘Dragonbane’.

Dragonbane’ is described as a classic fantasy RPG full of magic, mystery, and adventure. This new edition is designed from the ground up to facilitate fast and furious play, with very little prep time and adventures that are a breeze to run. Though a toolbox allowing GMs to tell fantasy stories of all kinds, Dragonbane is a game with room for laughs at the table and even a pinch of silliness at times.

Though the Kickstarter campaign for ‘Dragonbane’ is over for the time being (and the release date for the core book is scheduled for August 2023), you can still access the quickstart PDF, including the complete introductory adventure Riddermound, and five pre-generated characters to play!
