Hi all,

As the title, I’m looking for an adventure module that hits on similar notes to a Soulsborne game. The kind of crumbling dying world aeshetic, mixed with misty forests and long (possibly perpetual) nights and vague hints at factions or individuals from a time before. You know. Soulsy stuff. King’s Field counts too, even though those games are quite different, since the worlds they portray have similar aeshetics.

I’ve found Vermis I, which I’m very excited to (hopefully soon) get a copy of so that I can finally actually read it, but as you might imagine, this is kind of a difficult thing to formulate search terms for. There are a lot of people who try to capture these games’ mechanics, but seemingly not so many that I could find trying to capture their worldbuilding.

System compatibility doesn’t matter, since I plan to just mine it for ideas

    I’m still reading through both of the resources you linked, but I think the OD&D setting in particular is going to help me a ton. I also think I can pull some structure from the unofficial Dark Souls ruleset – Age Creation in particular.

    Thanks! These are perfect!
