Drakonym is a cinematic fantasy TTRPG about heroes who bond with living dragons
You play in Akeroth, a world of light and shadow where every roll weighs hope against consequence. Build dice pools from six core Attributes and roll the d12 Shadow Die to reveal twists and costs as the story unfolds. Wounds escalate through clear tracks instead of hit points, so every blow matters.
