Saints Of The Empty Throne
A downloadable game
The Saints Of The Empty Throne are an armigerous order, (both bearing weapons and having personal crests), in the service of the empty throne of the Great Republic.
They swear a great many oaths to the throne, relating to justice and generosity and good order, and take these oaths extremely seriously. They do not swear an oath to law, though they study it, and they are not police, though they are often sent or called to deal with matters of peace and justice. They are, every one of them, executioners; the performance of an execution is the final step in becoming one of the Saints.
First and greatest of all their oaths is this: The empty throne will remain empty.
Saints Of The Empty Throne is a fantasy Tabletop Roleplaying game. The setting is a post-revolutionary “Great Republic” in the early black powder era, and the genre mixes up swashbuckling action and wandering hero tropes in a number of interesting ways. The system is extremely light, and revolves around use of the Sooth Deck.
You’ll need a copy of the Soothsayer's Deck or substitute (several substitutes are available on the page for the deck itself) to play.
