It might look safe during the day, but when night falls, you never know what lies beyond the firelight.

- Grand Inquisitor Steel

Beyond the Firelight is a storytelling, tabletop roleplaying game of historical horror. It gathers its influences from traditional folklore and stories that kept the people from straying off the moral path or going out at night. It can be a game of investigation or survival as you and your friends attempt to discover what lies beyond the darkness around you.

Beyond the Firelight Deluxe is a full, revised core rulebook with all the mechanics necessary to play the game plus a collection of Adversaries and Scenarios to get you started. It includes:

  • The core mechanics
  • Example Play
  • 12 player Personality types
  • 25 Adversaries
  • Setting Guidance
  • 4 Scenarios
  • ... And more!

Beyond the Firelight Deluxe is part of the fantasy horror alternate history known as Shadowed Earth. Players take on the roles of common folk, forced to face the horrors of the world.

Beyond the Firelight Deluxe is supported by Creative Commons. You can use the mechanics to create your own storytelling games.

So I realize this was just released today, but I'm curious if anyone can tell me anything about it in terms of mechanics? The setting sounds intriguing.

Beyond the Firelight Deluxe is actually a revised and expanded version of Beyond the Firelight which came out in 2016. The game is really survival without heroics, placing you in the stories of historical folklore with plenty of horrific twists. There are very few mechanics, but all conflicts are resolved with a single die roll. Success is difficult, but if you're able to apply one of your Personalty's (i.e. player character) characteristics, it makes the die roll a bit easier. However, each Act of a Scenario has a set of Objectives that must be achieved and a limited number of dice to achieve them. If you cannot achieve all Objectives before running out of dice... well that's where the survival part comes in. A Deluxe edition of the Quick Start Rules will be released soon and will be available for Pay What You Want. That way you can sample the mechanics.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
