Ronin

The air in Kage no Shima is thick with the scent of blood and the promise of violence.

Welcome to RONIN, a rules-lite tabletop RPG set in a mythical, samurai-inspired world. Based on the MÖRK BORG system, RONIN is a game of honour, combat, and adventure. In a world ravaged by an eternal eclipse and overrun by supernatural creatures known as yokai, players take on the roles of forgotten ronin, shinobi, onmyoji, and more as they seek to restore their honour and defeat the forces of darkness.

We are excited to bring RONIN to life, and with your support, we can make this dream a reality. Join us on this journey of honour and let's explore the world of the Kage no Shima together!
