One important distinction about ZWEIHÄNDER is that players don't earn Experience Points. Instead, players earn Reward Points (RP) based primarily on the axiom of how well they exemplify their character's Blessing and Curse or otherwise role-playing (RP).

How did we address WFRP's "naked dwarf syndrome" you ask? We built in rules for bleeding when unarmored, but also allowed some leeway for those that may wish to pick up this Dwarven Trait.


RUNE-MARKED GLORY
Sage and arcane, all Dwarves know their runes. They mark keepsakes, armor and weapons with chalk and ink, foretelling of an ancient, forgotten glory that came before them. Some even tattoo themselves from head to toe in these arcane symbols of might, evoking the age-old complaint by other warriors dubbed “naked dwarf syndrome”. Yet, these runes harbor an odd power, girding their body against the cold touch of steel and their mind against the effects of sorcery. You are immune to Bleeding, and can run around unarmored without impunity. Additionally, add your Willpower Bonus (WB) to Toughness Bonus (TB) when determining how much Damage or Peril you ignore when you succumb to Magick.

I don"t get what this means "and can run around unarmored without impunity" Without impunity? Makes no sense to me.

Happy Halloween! Head over to our home page to preview an appropriately-themed creature from the ZWEIHÄNDER Grim & Perilous RPG bestiary: The Ghoul!


There are those in this world that slave to their own vices. Ones given to gluttony can fall prey to chaos’s touch during their weakest moments of overindulgence. Once upon this dark path, it cannot be abandoned as the road to ghouldom begins…

Who stands boldly against Ghouls and the forces of disorder? Enter the Inquisitor....


Since the dawn of time, the forces of chaos have sought to corrupt the seeds of life and twist the soul of mankind. Locked within this eternal struggle, the Inquisitor knows there is no place for half measures. Vows of unwavering faith and fealty drive them to face the abominations of this world, and perhaps more importantly act as the scourge to those tainted souls that would lead their kin down the path of destruction. It is their duty to be ever watchful, ever prepared, and ever ready to use any means necessary.
