Welcome to Stonetop

Stonetop is a hearth fantasy role-playing game, set in an iron age that never was. It's meant for 3-5 people to play over multiple sessions. Expect each session to last 3-5 hours.

Decide which of you will be the game master, or GM for short. Everyone else is a player. Each player controls and portrays a player character (or PC), one of the heroes of the village of Stonetop. The GM controls and portrays the world around them.

Together, you'll tell the stories of these PCs and the village they call home. These stories will play out over months or years of fictional time.

Most of the time you spend playing will revolve around crises that threaten the village, or opportunities to improve its lot. You'll face dangers both monstrous and mundane. You'll seek out the wonders of the past. You'll trudge through rain and snow to haul some treasure home.

But you'll spend time on the slow, quiet moments, too. Talking to your pa by the hearth. Courting a sweetheart. Bringing in the harvest with your neighbors, or dancing 'round the Stone come spring. Seeing children grow. Laying dear old friends to rest.

Over time—in both the game and in real life—your characters and the village will struggle, change, and grow. Together, you'll tell a story that you could never tell alone.

Welcome to Stonetop, friend.

Welcome home.
