Game Master Patrik Ström

Exciting adventures in the Dread Sea Dominons, using the Savage Worlds Rule set and Beasts and Barbarians campaign material


Four strangers wake in a prison cell with little or no recollection of how they got there. Savage adventures begin as a unknown man provides the means for their escape!

Savage Adventures in the Dread Sea Dominons

Setting Rules
Blood and guts (able to spend bennies on damage rolls)
Critical Failures (unable to spend a bennie to reroll a critical failure)
Joker’s Wild (everyone gets a bennie whenever a joker is drawn from the action deck)
Multiple languages (know smarts die/2 languages)

Prohibited edges and hindrances:

* Adept - As per the setting rules
* MacGyver - As per the setting rules
* Mentalist - As per the setting rules
* Mr. Fix It - As per the setting rules
* Rich and Very rich - Same reasoning as with the poverty hindrance. Better handled through the Noble edge
* Wizard - As per the setting rules

* All thumbs - As per the setting rules
* Doubting Thomas - As per the setting rules
* Enemy - While I think it's great if the character has an enemy I'm not confortable having it as a hinderance. A hinderance is something that should be a factor through out the game, and enemies can be dispatched. I don't want to jump through hoops to ensure that an enemy hindrance stays relevant, no matter what the characters do.
* Illiterate - As per the setting rules
* Poverty - As you start the game with the equiment you want (within reason), and being loose with your earnings is a setting trope, this isn't a good hindrance. It's better to take the Quirk hindrance with a "Can't hold on to money" trapping.
