Sean's Five Moons RPG Kickstarter

A while ago I heard that Sean K Reynolds, our special guest judge for Here Be Monsters, has started a Kickstarter about his Five Moons roleplaying game. I think it looks very interesting and definitely worth backing. Please have a look at the Kickstarter page and Sean's blog, where he discusses it further!

Below is an excerpt from the Kickstarter page about the project's goals:

The goals for this game are:
  • Create a book that's easy to read, understand, play, and reference, like the Pathfinder RPG Beginner Box (a product I wrote and am very proud of).
  • Make characters less dependent upon their gear to survive and succeed.
  • Elevate martial characters to have parity with spellcasters, but still maintain fun and distinct flavor for each class.
  • Reward roleplaying, teamwork, adventuring, and social interaction instead of focusing on damage output in combat.
  • Create a longer play experience in the leveling "sweet spot" (the D&D/PFRPG equivalent of level 6 to level 12).
  • Allow characters to level more frequently so they don't remain exactly the same for many game sessions.
  • Simplify scaling monster encounters against various character levels.
  • Allow for pseudo-medieval fantasy without "realism" hindering characters.
