Red Box Eastern Adventures Companion Website

The Red Box: Eastern Adventures Companion Website has launched and could be found through the following link: https://tasaka-games.com/redbox/ (the game itself will be release sometime in mid-2020).

Since the previous post, I have created a few more digital drawings (using the graphics tablet and digital pen) for the companion website and game.

The above illustration shows a Greater Bakemono spellcaster (shugenja) ‘blasting’ a hireling with magic.

Diversity and inclusion are important in my artwork; thus, while Eastern Adventures is based on Japanese folklore, the game itself is set in a fantasy world comprised of people of different skin colours.  Therefore, I felt it important to illustrate the female ninja as a non-Asian person, representing both the diversity of the game setting and the diversity of our gaming community.

The above illustration shows the backside of a Greater Bakemono warrior engaged in combat against an Adventurer.

Red Box: Eastern Adventures is a rules light OSR game that builds on the simple game play mechanics of White Box: Eastern Adventures, by added a few more mechanics (‘crunch’) to the game. This system is inspired by, and aspires to create, the Old School feel of the early iterations of the ‘World’s Most Famous Role-Playing System’.

Tasaka Games is my humble one-person tabletop role-playing game company.
