Brancalonia – Jinx’s Almanac

Description

Jinx’s Almanac – Sourcebook for Brancalonia for 5E

Brancalonia is a unique and entertaining tabletop role-playing game set in a gritty, low-fantasy world inspired by medieval Italy and Italian folklore. It combines elements of classic RPGs with a whimsical, “Spaghetti Fantasy” twist, focusing on a lighthearted, often humorous tone. Published by Acheron Games , the game is compatible with the Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition ruleset. Jinx’s Almanac is an anthology of adventures and collected articles from the early issues of The Daily Jinx. 

Players take on the role of “knaves”, who are part of a ragtag group of misfits, bandits, mercenaries, and outlaws. The setting is a wild and dangerous fantasy version of Italy, filled with warring city-states, corrupt rulers, and ancient ruins. Rather than playing noble heroes, the characters are often involved in shady jobs, scams, and other less-than-honorable tasks. They’ll need all their wits to survive and thrive in this chaotic world.

Brancalonia stands out for its blend of humorous storytelling, historical inspiration, and quirky fantasy focused on witty banter, and larger-than-life adventures. The setting is rich with references to Italian folklore, medieval history, and pop culture, making it a distinct and flavorful addition to your RPG collection.
