I remade Ruin Masters' hexmap of Caldarox using ripped images from the rulebook PDF. No reference for scale so this is my best guess at 6-mile hexes. Gonna play a solo game and see what fun stuff falls out of the (many) random tables the game provides.

Nordic-inspired RPGs are like "You are a BADASS VIKING WARRIOR selected by ODIN HIMSELF"
OTOH actual Scandi RPGs are like "In this fantasy world, you are a normal guy. Life is shit, it's always fucking raining and there's a 60% chance of being clubbed to death by a troll. Ducks don't wear pants."

%PCRank Séamus, I believe it is your fate to recover the long-lost artifact Skull-Crusher. When you have this legendary weapon in hand, bring it to me so I may bless it.

In the Light of a Setting Sun is a rules-lite game of bigger-than-life cowpokes on an unforgiving frontier. It it, you can play as cowherds on a long cattle drive, gunslingers solving problems in dusty border towns, or no-good outlaws on the run from a bloodthirsty sheriff. (1/?)

Jaquays was so influent to tabletop RPGs that "Jaquaysing" became a verb for designing complex, non-linear dungeons.
