Description

--- "Forbidden Darkness" is a 15-card supplement for Shadows of Brimstone, adding Feudal Japan-themed Darkness cards that heighten corruption, grit manipulation, and post-adventure perils. Key mechanics include: - *Corruption mechanics* Cards impose Corruption, dishonor, and purity challenges amid war and mythical creatures. - *Grit manipulation* Effects alter Grit to intensify gameplay risks. - *Post-adventure hazards* Cards make Travel after Adventures more dangerous. - *Enemy enhancements* Enemies become Ruthless and Soulless, relentlessly hunting players. - *Themed events* Incorporate War of the Dragon, local legends, shadow assassins, and emboldened Darkness. Forbidden Darkness is a brand-new 15-card Game Supplement exclusively for Shadows of Brimstone, themed around the war-torn battlefields of Feudal Japan, where brutal combat, mythical creatures, and the escalating War of the Dragon empower growing Darkness. These Darkness cards introduce perilous effects centered on Corruption to erode warriors' purity and honor, manipulation of Grit for tactical disruptions, heightened dangers during Travel phases post-Adventure, and transformations of Enemies into Ruthless and Soulless hunters. The set, unavailable in prior Kickstarter projects, comprises: An Age of War ×2, Taste of Corruption ×2, Local Legends ×2, Dark Soul, War of the Dragon, Bloodthirsty, Shadow Clan Assassins, Shame of Failure, Born of Darkness, Evil on the Move, Emboldened, and Dishonored / Gravely Dishonored (Rule Card), collectively amplifying adventure challenges with immersive feudal horrors. ---
