DESCRIPTION:
For the Yrth setting, check out GURPS Banestorm.. Create a world that could never be! GURPS Fantasy is the complete toolkit to let you build a campaign of heroic deeds and wondrous magic. This book greatly expands on the advice for running fantasy games from the previous edition of GURPS Fantasy. Whether your model is Tolkien, Jordan, or Leiber, this book will let create a town, a country, or an entire world. GURPS Fantasy gives detailed, concrete advice - from the basics of the landscape itself, through its inhabitants and cultures, to the details of believable histories and politics. And, of course, it looks at the many different ways that magic and users of magic can work in a fantasy world. It also examines the nature of supernatural forces, and discusses the impact of wizards, monsters, and gods. And, perhaps most importantly, it advises GMs and players alike on the kinds of characters appropriate to fantasy - including ordinary folks, people with fantastic powers, and nonhumans. It discusses the genre in depth - with all its subgenres and inspirations (myth, novels, movies, etc.) - letting you design just the kind of fantasy setting that you want. Like all Fourth Edition books, it's a full-color hardcover
