Welcome new people! I'm so excited that you've been checking out Relict, and I'm here to help make your first adventure as easy to run as possible. Let's get into the latest!

New Videos

First off, I've added two new videos to the itch page and website this week: a step-by-step guide for building your first character, and a sample combat encounter where I run a couple rounds as a demonstration. 

All of the material in the videos is also covered in the text of the site, but sometimes video is just an easier way to see things in action. 

I've rebalanced the Threat Level (TL) system for rating monsters, and updated all current statblocks accordingly. This is an ongoing process as I tinker with the underlying math based on playtest experience. This new version should provide a more useful range between monsters when doing encounter building.

New Monsters

Finally, eagle-eyed GMs may have spotted some new monsters coming up on the website! 

I've added the stat entries for the Giant Spiderling and Giant Spider for those who need a simple creepy-crawlie to populate a cave or dungeon, and we have our first Fiend entry: the Stoneheart Succubus. 

These creatures are in an early state right now, but mechanically functional. I'll be adding the lore entries shortly, and likely another ability or two for the succubus.  

Finally, if anyone has any questions about Relict, please feel free to drop me a line over Discord. And if you're a live-play/actual-play type human who wants to run a game, let me know how I can help! Discord: https://discord.gg/UP7TJgzAH6

Thank you all for checking out Relict!
