Savage Worlds RPG - Sherwood - The Legend of Robin Hood

Welcome to Sherwood Forest, a place of mystery and excitement. Band together to oppose the forces of the Sheriff and Prince John in England during the Third Crusade. Create your characters to do whats best for England and King Richard by protecting his interests at home.

This setting book allows you to play in the Medieval England of the period of the Third Crusades. There are classes designed specifically for that period. The book is designed to not only emulate the historical period, but also the mythical one as well. Play in any level you would like from historical to mythical, emulating various novels, stories and tv shows about Robin Hood.

This setting can be played in either historic or mythical mode. Historic is more realistic, leaving out magic, but in mythical mode, magic has been added to the setting allowing you to play in the fantastic. In addition to this we have a special type of Action Points called Swashbuckling Points. What these do is allow your character to do the impossible, from swinging on a rope chandelier to climbing up the wall using only a knife. In a style that emulates the early fantastical stories of the genre.

This book includes:

•       Weapons and armor from the time
•       New Edges and Arcane Backgrounds
•       Gazetteer covering Robin Hood’s England
•       Characters from Robin Hood Legends
•       Feats of derring-do and archery contests
•       Mythic beasts and faeries

This book is a campaign setting designed to be used with the Savage Worlds Core Rulebook.

"Overall, I found Sherwood to be a solid setting book that offers everything you’d need to play this time period and genre.  Anyone that’s a fan of Robin Hood — or just wants to run fantasy that has more style and intrigue than elves — should check this out." - review at www.feartheboot.com
