Challenge Fate

EIDOLON uses our own Drawn From the Undertow game system, which replaces dice with a deck of tarot cards. Each action requires a draw, and each card dictates a new direction for the story to go. Play The Magician, and "you achieve an impossible success," but play The Tower, and "something terrible happens." Each character also chooses their own Resonant and Dissonant cards, which act as their own personal critical successes and failures!

Drama-Driven Battle System

The combat system from 1E has been significantly reworked, while remaining the same core of the Crash system, in which battle is governed by dramatic arcs instead of hard numbers and stats. Short-term victories make enemies more powerful, more deadly, and more desperate, pushing them to further and further extremes until the players reach a moment of climactic triumph!... or, they suffer enough failures, incur enough physical, psychic and metaphysical damage, that they are forced to Face Death, and must cut a deal with the forces of The Undertow to go on fighting.

Actually, I Meant for You to Kick My Ass!

With the Reveal Your Master Plan Move, you can dramatically change the flow of a session by revealing a secret strategy that your character's been employing the entire time! Take a bullet? Reveal Your Master Plan to open your shirt and show off the body armor you've been wearing all along! Find yourself alone at the mercy of a powerful villain? Reveal Your Master Plan to declare that you called for back-up before the fight even started! Of course, nothing's ever a guarantee, and you'll often find that your "master plan" has a few hitches you'll need to resolve before it comes to fruition!

EIDOLON was developed in conjunction with the award-winning Eidolon Playtest podcast. Check it out if you want an example of the game in action!
