About This Game


A true role-playing adventure.
A campaign within the world of Vol, a fully realized setting inspired by the
late bronze age in a Transylvanian landscape, with unique politics, races and
gods steeped in history. Featuring a chosen party of five, you role-play
Necholai, a minor god of a celestial body who descends to the Staglands for a
moonlit festival only to find the way home blocked and immortality slipping
away. Seeking answers and aid, you take on a mortal body and the guise of a
traveling Spicer. This isn't a story of good and evil, saving the world or
being a hero, it's about intrigue and your adventure of survival in a harsh
land.


While the game rolls the dice for you, you'll traverse the Staglands on a
path narrated by your own wits and choices. A tabletop inspired experience
with adventure-game like navigation, Serpent in the Staglands offers no
auto-populating map markers, checklist quest grinding and rigid story
exposition.


Examine hand-drawn maps in your inventory for secret locations, diagrams of
foreign languages, note encounters of interest in your in-game journal and
figure out on your own how best to smuggle Spices. Roleplay, investigate, and
pray to the RNG god when combat begins.


Serpent in the Staglands features:


* Party-based, real time with pause combat focused on macro tactical
decisions and creative party skill combinations
* Classless role-playing system: create builds via any combination of the
over 100 magic, combat and aptitude skills available to create or find up to
5 unique characters
* Non-linear storyline to explore as your adventure allows
* No level scaling or story-blocked map barriers impede your adventure
* Dynamic item use, including an incantation book, hand-drawn maps, and a
herbology kit for brewing potions
* Combat designed for minimal pause spamming and without cooldowns, instead
focusing on pre-buffing, positioning and auto-triggering skills
* An unmarked map filled with wilderness, cities, towers, temples, dungeons
and caverns to explore.
* Write your own journal notes for quests, puzzles and leads as you
investigate. The game won't hold your hand or tell you what to do.
* Huge variety of enemies and challenges, including monsters, rogue mages
and mutilated outlaws, which all can have the same spells and skills you do
