Christmas in July Sale - Candela Obscura Corebook for 5 Bucks

The Christmas in July Sale is going strong at DTRPG. There are a ton of titles at 30% off, as well as a few at 75% off. Today's pick is one of those 75% off games, Candela Obscura.

I've heard mixed reviews of Candela Obscura in the past, but at $5 instead of the usual $20, I figure I can take the plunge and see if I like what's presented. If I don't, I'm sure I can salvage $5 worth of entertaining from it ;)

You’re needed, investigators: join the secret society Candela Obscura to confront occult horrors from beyond, keeping hidden the true nature of magickal incursions besetting our world.

The Candela Obscura Core Rulebook is a fully detailed guide on playing and gamemastering the collaborative investigative horror tabletop roleplaying game. As an investigator of the paranormal secret society Candela Obscura, you and your circle are charged with exploring, fighting, and protecting the people of Newfaire from supernatural dangers lurking in the folds of a bustling world unaware of the occult magick simmering beneath. Candela Obscura is the very first game to use the Illuminated Worlds System as well as the first full RPG from Darrington Press, as featured in the ongoing anthology series on Critical Role.

Inside of the Candela Obscura Core Rulebook you’ll discover:

• 204 detailed pages
• The core rules to play and create your Candela Obscura investigators and their circles.
• Over 90 pages detailing the turn of the century-inspired setting of the Fairelands, and in detail the city of Newfaire and the ancient ruins beneath known as Oldfaire.
• 4 full example assignments for gamemasters to dive in with their players.
• Over 30 example assignments to explore far-flung corners of the Fairelands and the organizations and people operating within it.
• An extensive guide to preparing for and gamemastering Candela Obscura.
• Immersive, in-world ephemera and notes strewn throughout the chapters—illustrations, sketches, research notes, correspondences, advertisements, maps, and more to bring the Fairelands to life.

Get immersed in Candela Obscura’s turn-of-the-century inspired setting, learn about the secret society Candela Obscura and its rival factions, and take a spin through the Illuminated Worlds System. Grab some six-sided dice and you’re ready to go!
