Astrenor Role Playing Game
Author: Kerann Chan-chadrin

Astrenor is a fantasy role-playing game developed by Broject Games, the publisher behind the Character
Sheet Online website. In this game, players embody young adventurers seeking glory, destined to experience
adventures as whimsical as they are intriguing. They will journey to meet the diverse civilizations of this world
in order to uncover the truth and make decisions that will forever impact their own story and that of Astrenor.

The game offers both simple rules that prioritize storytelling and a tactical combat system, appealing to both
beginner role-players and fans of board games.

Astrenor character sheets have been designed and optimized for use on the charactersheetonline.
com website (also known as CSO). However, using this platform is not mandatory to play a game of
Astrenor.

What is a role play?

A role-playing game, or RPG for short, is a board game in which participants design a narrative fiction
together through the interpretation of characters, within self-imposed game constraints.

To play a role-playing game you will need a game leader called the Game Master (GM) and a group of players
(1 to 4 recommended).

The Game Master is the person who ensures that a role-playing game runs smoothly. They describe the
situations to the players, play the role of the other characters and makes decisions about the course of action,
in accordance with the rules imposed by the role-playing game.

The players each play a character who evolves in the universe depicted by the Game Master. They each have a
character sheet containing information about their character’s personality, history, abilities and possessions.
Players are free to make their own choices and take their own actions, as long as these are possible for their
character, and they must work together to solve quests and face challenges.

The universe of Astrenor
The story of our adventurers unfolds in a medieval world imbued with magic, named Astrenor. Science and
technology are beginning to emerge and blend with magic, gradually revolutionizing the daily lives of its
inhabitants. Originally, Astrenor was inhabited by four distinct major species: Humans, Elves, Dwarves, and
Orcs. Today, these different peoples live in a precarious harmony within more or less cosmopolitan societies,
where mixing is prevalent. These new nations, with constantly redefined borders, are scattered across three
vast continents: Rautha, Asgure, and Tolan.

Rautha is a continent with diverse landscapes, The Republic of Rautha is the continent’s hub,
rich fauna and flora, and vast arable lands. Long governed by President Panorius, a good and

1
A character can equip a one-handed weapon and a shield simultaneously, or two one-handed weapons
thanks to the «Ambidexterity» advantage.

2
A character cannot equip another weapon or shield while wielding a two-handed weapon. Some of these
weapons are more difficult to handle and may have a penalty on their attack roll, thus increasing the difficulty.

3
Short and long bows require the use of an arrow for each attack, even if it fails. Arrows that have not hit any
target can be retrieved at the end of the combat. The difficulty of the attack roll of a ranged weapon may be
increased depending on the obstacles between the target and the attacker.

4
Wands and scepters can only inflict damage using the special moves from the Mage path. Their range
depends on the spell used.

5
Heavy armors require a minimum of Constitution to be worn. They decrease the wearer’s mobility, thus
reducing their Dexterity.

6
Shields require a minimum of strength to be wielded. They cannot be equipped simultaneously with a
two-handed weapon or a bow. Their armor bonus applies only in defense position; however, they negate the
possibility of dodging an incoming attack.

7
Standard consumables cannot be used in combat unlike quick consumables.
