YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT

Welcome to the One Land. A post-apocalyptic supercontinent where food is magic. A vast, wild, and old world, populated by monsters: giant kaiju-esque creatures inspired by paleontology and cryptozoology.

In the Wilderfeast roleplaying game, players take on the role of Wilders, outcast rangers who wield gargantuan kitchen implements and gain powerful mutations from each monster they eat. Part monster hunters, part chefs, Wilders work in packs and have taken on the duty of stopping the frenzy, an eldritch virus which makes monsters violent and self-destructive.

Using their powers, Wilders seek harmony between humanity and the wild, and can choose which of their sides to embrace when taking Tests: will you focus up, and stay true to your human side, or go wild, and unleash the monster in you?

The 318 page full colour hardcover Wilderfeast Core Book features:

• Fast and robust character creation, with 6 Tools (each with their own set of unlockable Traits), 8 Specialties, and suggestions for your three-course backstory. No matter how you build your character, you start with connections to the One Land and your fellow players.
