Rapscallion RPG - Core Book

The Great Sea Awaits!

Rapscallion is a roleplaying game that plunges you and your friends into the waters of the Great Sea, churning with danger and wonder! The call of treasures unknown is too great for you and your crew of misfits to ignore. Board your ship with your steadfast crewmates and set sail across the unknown to secure your legacy and might.

In Rapscallion, you might duel atop heaving ship decks, commit dark deeds to protect those you care about most, but you cannot escape the vices that haunt you along the way! Play as a haunted captain possessed by a thousand vengeful ghosts, a bound djinni trapped within a magical book, a dark sea-sorcerer who made a deal with a demon for power, or a mysterious navigator who stole the heart of the ocean itself.

You’ve only got your ship and your crew to rely on, in this world of a thousand enemies... Can your stories match the strangeness of the Great Sea herself?
