“Several years ago, a band of outlaws stole a fast merchant vessel and converted it into a pirate ship. When they searched its hold for plunder, they discovered a wicked-looking cutlass carved from the bone of a massive sea monster. Their captain, Jake Starling, immediately claimed it as his own.
Within days of capturing the ship, a terrible curse befell the entire crew. Blaming the captain for their predicament, the pirates marooned him, hoping to break the curse—but their efforts achieved nothing. Only much later did they discover Jake’s cutlass was the source of their misery, but by then, their former captain had escaped. So the pirates named their ship after his dreaded weapon and set out in pursuit!
You are infamous crewmembers of the Bone Blade, pillaging and plundering your way up the coast in search of the elusive Jake Starling, desperately seeking a way to end the terrible curse that afflicts you.”
Inspired by a popular film franchise, Pirates of the Bone Blade is a standalone scenario for the Tricube Tales system and is usable as a micro-setting, but it is also a fully self-contained one-page RPG in its own right. You can print it on a single sheet of paper: The first page includes everything you need to play, while an optional second page expands the adventure generator with examples and twists. The PDF uses layers for ease of printing.
