Tainted Grail RPG: Song of a Dying World, Standard Edition

Avalon fell 100 years ago. Now it’s your turn to write the story!

Tainted Grail TTRPG: Song of a Dying World introduces you to a ruthless, melancholic universe inspired by Arthurian legends as well as Celtic culture and folklore.

Forced to flee the Continent because of a deadly plague known as the Red Death, the legendary King Arthur and his people once found a new home on the island of Avalon. However, this was no hospitable haven: humanity had to fight for its survival against the forces of the Wyrdness – a primordial power that can alter matter and the mind – and the Foredwellers – four-armed titans and the island’s original inhabitants. A century ago, a terrible cataclysm named The Fall of Avalon struck a blow to the vulnerable forces of humanity. What remains of humanity’s descendants live scattered around the island, striving to survive and regain its former splendor.

In Tainted Grail: Song of a Dying World, your characters are destined to become the legendary “Guardians of Avalon”, a group of individuals marked by Arthur’s power and meant to defend humanity in difficult times against the island’s forces.
