By Raven
Dark fantasy roleplay at your own pace. No table, no VTT, no schedule. Just your pack and your wits.
By Raven is a dark fantasy tabletop RPG played through messages, not around a table. There is no virtual tabletop, no shared initiative, and no schedule. The Raven sends each player their own private thread. Players write what their characters do. The Raven resolves it. The scene moves forward.
Built for asynchronous play from the ground up. Your inventory is your health: every slot carries gear, wounds, treasure, or death. Five full magic traditions. Fifteen premade characters. No classes, no preset archetypes. You build a person and the numbers follow the fiction.
Two books: the Player’s Guide and the Raven’s Guide, each with printer-friendly versions included.
