Legend of Zelda: Reclaim the Wild

Overview

Reclaim the Wild is a free, fan-made tabletop roleplaying game set in the world of The Legend of Zelda, built mainly around Breath of the Wild and usable with other Zelda settings. It was written by a developer who signs as Elemental Knight, who began work in March 2017, a few weeks after Breath of the Wild came out, and the first release on itch.io is dated 31 December 2018. It is entirely unofficial and unsupported by Nintendo, which owns the Zelda trademarks. The game is distributed as a Core Rulebook with a Bestiary and a Supplement, and its latest numbered update, version 2.03 in June 2021, was the last made with its original developer's direct involvement. Its developer then stepped back, and Milly and Maddie took over the Core Rulebook, the Bestiary and the Rebuild supplement, while Maddie works on Reclaim the Waves, a seafaring supplement inspired by Wind Waker.

Description

Players take on Heroes, each with a history, Traits and abilities, in a Hyrule-style world of ancient civilisations, humble starts, and a mix of combat and puzzles. The core book offers six playable races: Gerudo, Goron, Hylian, Rito, Sheikah and Zora. The Game Master (GM) builds the adventure, voices every non-player character and referees the rules, and the book encourages "video game logic", such as temples with implausible designs and monsters that could not exist in nature. The game asks a table to engage with crafting and environmental obstacles, not only fighting. Characters face weather, dangerous terrain, magical tools, spirits and traps, and gear such as weapons, armour and food is crafted. It suits groups who want a Zelda-style exploration game with a lot of systems, and who accept that it is an unofficial project that could be taken down.

Legend of Zelda: Awakening of Shadows

Newbie friendly
New players are welcome, and nobody expects you to know the rules beforehand.
LGBTQ+ friendly
The table is openly welcoming to LGBTQ+ players.
Looking for a LGBTQ+-friendly, adult player to join an online Zelda-themed TTRPG group. Format: Online Cost: None System: Reclaim The Wild (made by fans of the Legend of Zelda) Tech: Discord and self-hosted FoundryVTT Time: Saturdays around 13h00 GMT  Frequency: Approx. once every two weeks Beginner-friendly. Blurb: The Kingdom of Hyrule is in a period of peace and prosperity. Hylians, Gerudo, Gorons, Rito, Sheikah, and Zora live in and conduct business through bustling cities and idyllic villages. Adventurers brave the wild to discover ruins and dungeons dotted across the land, and to investigate their many mysteries. There are signs of looming trouble, though. A group of outcast Sheikah seek to fracture Hyrule, and are scouring Ancient shrines for lost technologies or knowledge to help them. Dark beings are commanding monsters and conducting mysterious rituals for purposes unknown. And past conflicts cast a long shadow... The current peace with the neighbouring Gerudo territory is as fragile as ever. (This is a new iteration of Hyrule that is distinct from the ones portrayed in video games but incorporating elements from several different titles - it probably has the most similarities with Twilight Princess in terms of civilization and Breath of the Wild in terms of world lore. The campaign started recently and we are ~4 sessions in.) Contact: If this sounds interesting to you, I have more details on an online form. If you seem like a good fit based on your answers, then I will reach out to you. The form can be found here

You ever start a Game of Thrones review podcast and then decide that actually you’d much rather push “publish” on your home TTRPG game instead? No? Just us? Well. We are a strange bunch, it has to be said. We’re a group of good friends, who are sometimes a tad irreverent, all with a passion for storytelling and adventure. After discovering the amazing way that storytelling could come to life through TTRPGs, we further fell in love with the idea of playing out space fantasy stories through the game of Starfinder. Thus, our first full length podcast, the Apollo Protection Agency, was born! The STF Network continues to grow; we now have a our second full AP show, an increasing Twitch presence, specialized talk shows, and exclusive Patreon content. Our library continues to expand along with an amazing community that supports us. Shows Drift Delvers Drifting in the space above Absolom Station, the strange Anomaly Beacon remains a mystery even five years after the Siege on Absalom Station. Shrouded in a force field, top drift scientists have tried to break through to no avail. The Church of Triune is now claiming that this new drift beacon should fall under their domain, claiming it as a mystery belonging to Triune and rumors are starting to swirl that Triune Priests say they are close to breaking through the Anomaly Beacons’ force field, jeopardizing Absalom Stations hold on the object. Councilwoman Rajni has gathered a highly specialized group of scientists - specializing in niche fields with differing perspectives from traditional scholars, will they be able to finally understand the Anomaly Beacon? Things however go vastly awry when the scientist teams ship is waylaid by space pirates and an even more anomalous event than the Beacon sends the team hurtling through space and time - unstuck from reason and logic - and the crew must not only find a way home, but manage to survive long enough to make it there… Apollo Protection Agency Come join the Apollo Protection Agency as they encounter threats across the Pact Worlds! The challenges they face are at times overwhelming, but as the camaraderie between the crew grows, so too does their determination to never back down from a worthy fight. The crew started Season One by tackling AGAINST THE AEON THRONE, brought together by a common friend to come fist-to-face with the Azlanti Star Empire. Season Two gets darker as the crew is unnerved in SIGNAL OF SCREAMS and our adventure takes a bit of a twist in the horror direction. Fear not, our epic crew gets their chance to shine as they rumble their way into DEVASTATION ARK for Season Three! Resident GM, Adam Kelly, guides the rest of the crew through these adventures with an eye for allowing for character relationships to flourish and to let storytelling to take center stage alongside dramatic starship combats and fights that can turn on a dime. Meet memorable characters from the vast reaches of space, cheer as the crew defeats a stubborn foe, and gasp in terror as Adam inflicts terrible, horrible fates upon our favorite characters. It’s a roller coaster of emotions. Come along for the ride! Live and Let Fly STF's own Zac Evans steps behind the screen to GM a crew of misfits and personalities more concerned with earning enough credits for beer and a cheeseburger than they are with saving the galaxy. Under the guidance of their greenhorn captain, Roland Mons Gelidus, the crew get their hands dirty as they wrestle with the hard cases of dangerous trade routes and the weight of the corporate thumb. They'll encounter a wide cast of characters in their pursuit to impress clients and get paid, before the competetion swoop in to take their jobs right out from under them. Strap in for a long haul as Zac leads the crew through the turbulent world of galactic trucking, nebulous time, and space goblins. Under The Table The dust kicks up on your boots as you stride through the smog filled streets, under the watching eye of the towering brass spires and feeling constant unease, knowing that all around you are ne’er do wells and outlaws, making it a hard place for an honest citizen. Even harder when the biggest scoundrels out there have badges, authority, and a willingness to use that leverage to make life richer for themselves at the cost of everyone else. Join the Strange Table Fellows as we make our first on-air journey into the world of steampunk and fantasy in a new game from Paizo - OUTLAWS OF ALKENTSTAR, a Pathfinder 2e adventure path!
