RPG: ‘Nobilis’ & ‘Chuubo’s Wish Granting Engine’ Star in Bundle of Holding
The latest RPG Bundle of Holding wants you to get wild and weird with Chuubo’s Marvelous Wish Granting Engine and Nobilis.
Do you want to explore the wild side of your tabletop RPGs? And not wild in the sense of feral or animal — but rather, in the territory of uncut myths and legends? Then the latest Bundle of Holding is for you. The Jenna Moran Bundle of Holding gathers together two incredible RPGs (and their supplements) in one great bundle.
Whether you want to play in the realm of deities and godlike powers like the Endless out of Sandman or else in an idyllic Miyazaki-esque landscape, you’re covered with this bundle. Let’s take a look. And all proceeds benefit Direct Relief, an organization that sends protective gear and critical care medications to health workers across the US and Canada.
Jenna Moran Bundle of Holding
This bargain-priced revival gives you the 2002 Nobilis Second Edition (the “Great White Book”), the recent Nobilis Essentials Third Edition rerelease, and almost everything Chuubo-related. For just US$9.95 you get all six titles in this revived offer’s Starter Collection (retail value $50) as DRM-free ebooks, including the complete 578-page Chuubo’s Marvelous Wish-Granting Engine rulebook, its supplements Fortitude: By the Docks of Big Lake and the Techno Player’s Guide, the Chuubo’s Quest and Issue Cards, and the illuminating extended play example Finding Home.
Wondering what Nobilis and Chuubo’s are? Here’s a quick rundown.
Nobilis is a diceless game of mythical Powers. You play as the embodiment of a Concept. Like one of the Endless out of Sandman. You’re not necessarily a deity, but you’re not not a deity either. It’s a diceless system that has earned something of a reputation over the last two decades. And for good reason. But you also get the latest expansions.
And then there’s Chuubo’s Marvelous Wish-Granting Engine, which takes the Nobilis ruleset and adapts them for a more warm-hearted RPG. You’ll explore worlds like Spirited Away’s Aburaya, located in the spirit world. If you want a kid-friendly RPG that hits you harder than you think it would, Chuubo’s is for you.
And you get both titles and more in the bundle. Pay more than the “threshold price” of $19.17 and you get the entire bonus collection which includes:
- Nobilis: The Game of Sovereign Powers Second Edition (2002): The gorgeous 304-page “Great White Book” originally by Hogshead Publishing, winner of an Origins Award for Best Graphic Presentation. Includes the free rules expansion Unlikely Flowerings.
- NEW in this revival! Nobilis – The Essentials: Released this year, this is the updated version of the 2011 Nobilis Third Edition. (And if you purchased this offer during its original September 2018 run, you receive the new addition automatically on your Wizard’s Cabinet download page and in your linked DriveThruRPG Library.)
- Fortitude: The Glass-Maker’s Dragon: A massive 562-page Chuubo’s campaign, set in the beautiful hometown of Fortitude, that will keep you busy reaching for your dreams for years.
- Fortitude: The Legendary 139: A campaign about the extraordinary passengers who sailed into port on the day the sun died.
- The Chuubo’s Halloween Special: A one-shot holiday adventure that introduces the “Fairy Tales” genre of Chuubo’s.
