Numenera: We Are All Mad Here
Description
With the help of We Are All Mad Here, run one-shots based on traditional stories or those of your own devising, or build entire campaigns that take the fairy tale concept in whole new directions. The We Are All Mad Here Sourcebook includes a thorough exploration of the fairy tale genre, advice for running fairy tale games, including tips for one-and-done adventures reminiscent of fairy tale stories, as well as everything you need to build characters for fairy tale adventures. It also contains lots of fairy tale creatures and characters—specific names from tales you know, and archetypes you can use in any fairy tale game, as well as three full-length adventures in The Heartwood, a complete fairy tale setting that draws upon the fictional concept of “madness” in a way that addresses our modern, realistic, and sensitive understanding of mental health. In this setting, characters touched with mental illness in the real world discover a realm where they are empowered, and the wild and imaginative adventures they have there allow them to find even greater strengths within themselves.
