Lex Arcana - Corebook
"Then Romulus shall receive the sceptre of his race, and found the walls of Mars, and call the people Romans. I have given no limits or duration to their possessions: I've given them empire without end."
Virgil, Aeneid
Historical-Fantasy Roleplaying in a Roman Empire which did not fall.
In Lex Arcana, you are a Custos (warden) of the Cohors Auxiliaria Arcana, sent by the Emperor to the four corners of the world to further the study of arcane lore, investigate forbidden cults, and face the thread posed by dangerous supernatural creatures.
The Emperor needs you!
Join the Cohors Auxiliaria Arcana, enter the world of Lex Arcana and dive into the mysteries and dangers of ancient Rome.
You and the other Custodes will travel to the four corners of the land, investigate terrifying threats, recover lost relics, unearth forgotten secrets and fight legendary supernatural creatures. The Core Rulebook includes:
• Full rules to play Lex Arcana
• A full world to play in
• 12 pre-generated Custodes
• Rules to make and advance your Custos
• Advice for the Demiurge
• The ancient world bestiary
• Two extensive introductory adventures: The Long Winter Nights and The Mothers of Cenabum
From misty Britannia to the immense rivers of Babilonia, from the Egyptian deserts to the beautiful beaches of Italia, the adventures awaiting the Custodes are as numerous as the Empire the Cohors Arcana must defend is large. For the glory of Rome and the Empire without end!
