Free From the Yoke Core Rulebook
Free From the Yoke is a game of political intruigue and low-fantasy adventure in a
world inspired by Eastern European history and mythology. Each game begins with a play group working through the story of their revolution against an occupying empire, and the Arbiter who lead the revolution and now rules the new nation. This Arbiter - controlled by the GM - acts as an antagonist for the campaign, a ruler for the factions the players control to appease, manipulate, keep at bay and even rise up in revolt against.
Free From the Yoke builds on the faction and hero gameplay of Legacy: Life Among the Ruins. Players tell political stories controlling factions like steppe horse nomads, keepers of the land’s lore, and representatives of other nations, but also play wise, daring and strong heroes in adventures across this land. With rules designed to produce dramatic stories of loyalty, oaths, magic and mystery, Free From the Yoke gives play groups everything they need to tell a spellbinding multi-generation story of the peoples of this land and the new society they build.
