A mist of brackish water blows by as you walk along the western coast of your homeland, the island continent Oræd. You close your eyes and imagine packing your belongings and setting sail, to discover the hidden Snake Elves who no outsider has seen, or to visit the Wish Wyrm in the Hills of Alchemy and ask for a boon. You see yourself running into druidic pilgrims out at sea, who would lead you to the giant oracle Olgatha, that prophet who could unveil your destiny.

Ballads of Oræd contains a fantasy world with all its creatures, treasure, and quests, designed for compatibility with Old School Essentials. 230 pages, with over 100 full pages of full-colour art. Within are nine chapters exploring adventures in the distinct regions of Oræd, a detailed atlas and seafaring guide provide help with navigation, a bestiary presents monsters, and a section of character illustrations brings life to Oræd’s denizens.

Includes a 3-panel referee’s screen with additional info and reference material.
