Ta Sardar Gor!
Far in the frozen north of the Counter-Earth, bondmaids share whispered stories of Sinter Klass, the legendary Jarl of the frozen wastes. It is said he thunders out of snow on his war-sledge, drawn by eight enormous northern tabuk, their spiral horns rusty with the crusted blood of his enemies.
He seeks out slaves who have been dutiful and good to their Masters and rewards them with wood and amber beads. Slaves who have been neglected he rewards with a romp in the furs and a dash of slave perfume. Slaves who have been spiteful and bad may be spanked and whipped or carried off in his sack to learn their place in his hall.
Masters who are cruel for no reason may face his wrath, stealing from them, enslaving them or challenging them to a duel to the death – though even when he loses he seems to reappear the next year.
Klaas’ booming laugh and the giggling of his three bondmaids, Hi, Ha and He, along with the jangling of the bells of his war-sled heralds his arrival. It is traditional to leave a spoonful of slave gruel or a much-prized candy out for him and his girls.

PROJECT is a role-playing game about heroic guardians of reality.
After a terrible, supernatural disaster the world has been rent asunder and strange things have begun to bleed in all around the edges.
Humanity has recovered to an extent and continues to fight these beings and forces from beyond known as ‘Entities’.
The group PROJECT is at the forefront of humanity’s defence, using the strange technologies and abilities of the Entities against them and reasserting reality one bloody fight at a time.
In the game you will take the role of one of the heroic agents of PROJECT, modified
through barely understood technology and thrown against the strange and deadly beings and events that press in on the Earth from its neighbouring dimensions and parallels. In the process you may begin to discover things that you wish you didn’t know and that the battle for reality is not as black and white as you have
been indoctrinated to think.
With stunning art by Toby Gregory and a customised version of the Open D6 system, PROJECT is a great game for mission-based play and conspiracy arcs.
PROJECT IS SAVIOUR
PROJECT uses the Open D6 system and can be customised to play at street, investigative, conspiracy or action levels.
A print version will come later, sold and distributed via Chronicle City.
