Fallen is a tabletop RPG for the Baroque & Grim. Set in a strange and mysterious 17th-19th century, it encourages exploration of the supernatural, horrific, or historic. It is a game meant to ooze atmosphere, strangeness, and mystery. Find ruins, cemeteries, towers, farmsteads and dark woods. Steal Incantations from Magicians, take contracts for hunting a terrifying creature.
