His daughter, a shield-maiden named Gunnhildr, has been abducted by a brute called Björn Blackbeard. During a desperate search, the Sea-Wolf crossed sails with a former rival, and from the blood-flecked lips of a dying foe, he learnt the location of Blackbeard’s stronghold.

Together they face the perils of Wendake—from wild rivers to hungry predators to a darkness nearly as old as Ataensic herself. The <strong>Free RPG Day</strong> edition of <strong><em>The Feast of the Dead</em></strong> was a quickstart introduction to the key concepts and new rules of <strong><em>Forts & Frontiers.

[B][I]The Sea-Wolf's Daughter[/I][/B], by [B]Jeffrey P. Talanian[/B], is an adventure in [B]HYPERBOREA [/B]designed for from four to six characters of 7th through 9th level. Your party finds itself in the employ of Ragnarr the Sea-Wolf, a jarl of New Vinland and a reaver of old. His daughter, a shield-maiden named Gunnhildr, has been abducted by a brute called Björn Blackbeard. During a desperate search, the Sea-Wolf crossed sails with a former rival, and from the blood-flecked lips of a dying foe, he learnt the location of Blackbeard’s stronghold. Now, deep in the misty fjords of Brigand’s Bay, where cutthroats, pirates, and freebooters thrive, you have been charged with liberating the Sea-Wolf’s daughter.” [/HQ] [CENTER][IMG]https://ksr-ugc.imgix.net/assets/025/754/386/3f8a83bdddfe5923f4af6bc7a4ee48a9_original.jpg?ixlib=rb-2.1.0&crop=faces&w=1024&h=576&fit=crop&v=1562705821&auto=format&frame=1&q=92&s=73adf6a995ddc7b9365e6e5cb89e00aa[/IMG][/CENTER] [URL='https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jameson-proctor/forts-and-frontiers-the-feast-of-the-dead-deluxe'][B]Forts & Frontiers: The Feast of the Dead Deluxe[/B][/URL][B] by [/B][URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/15058/Campaign-Games?affiliate_id=814082'][B]Campaign Games[/B][/URL] [LIST] [*][B]END DATE[/B]: Tue, August 20 2019 11:05 AM EDT.

[B][I]Forts & Frontiers[/I][/B] is a historical roleplaying game based on [B][I]Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition (5e)[/I][/B]. It allows GMs and players to experience 17th and 18th century North America from the diverse and often conflicting perspectives of the people of the time: British, French, and other European settlers; Wendat, Haudenosaunee, and other Nadouek nations; those striving to create new ways of life; and those striving to preserve the existing ways.

It is set in 17th century Wendake (modern-day Ontario) and tells the story of a Wendat sachem, his trading party, and a Jesuit priest as they travel from Trois-Rivières to the remote Wendat village of Oenrio on the shores of Lake Karegnondi. Together they face the perils of Wendake—from wild rivers to hungry predators to a darkness nearly as old as Ataensic herself.
