b>CHARACTER SHEETS !
"Men make different sounds when they die. The sound of a man dying of a gut wound is different than a man burning alive or dying of plague. The sound a man makes when being eaten alive¸ you won't soon forget."
In 1355¸ the Black Plague killed sixty-percent of Europe's population. Then¸ the dead rose and devoured those who were left.
The Black Plague has decimated Europe and brought with it a new sort of terror¸ a new sort of plague. As the sickness spreads¸ the Plague's final symptom becomes apparent: the dead rise to hunt the living.
The Darkest Age is a Horror RPG set in a grim¸ alternate history. Enter the gritty and dangerous world of Europe in 1350¸ as an unusual strain of the bubonic plague ravages the countryside and those afflicted don't just die. Faced with extinction¸ the people of Europe are forced to survive in any way they can. Characters face death¸ disease and the myriad undead¸ as well as cannibals¸ xenophobic city-states¸ and religious strife in an unending battle for the resources that mean survival.
