 | Axes and Anvils Lore Deck
Regular price: $10.00
Bundle price: $7.50
Format: Watermarked PDF
| The Lore Deck for Axes and Anvils has prompts for a group of players to weave together a tale from the history of their dwarven clan. At the end, they can decide together if the story is history (it happened!) or legend (probably happened, inspired by events) or myth (an instructional story.) The names, types, events, concluding morals, and locations on the cards can also support a GM who needs ideas in a hurry, during a session or while planning.

Making up stories together is an activity that can take place while waiting for everyone to arrive, or at the end of a session if there's some time left after reaching a good stopping point. As p...
