You have trained countless hours, faced the Queen’s Trials, and swore the Oath under the eyes of your God, The Radiance. 

You are a Knight of the Queen’s Court, of the Kingdom, and of the People.

LONGSWORD is a game of questing knights slaying monsters and protecting their kingdom in line with classic Arthurian and Mahabharatan tales. Embody a Knight and embark on quests where your Virtues will be tested, you'll come face to face with terrifying beasts, Old Gods, and dark magic. Find magical weapons blessed by greater beings, make allies within your knightly court, and fulfill your destiny of becoming a Legendary Knight.


LONGSWORD uses a simple d100 system with clever mechanics that make every roll push the story in dramatic directions. Rolling up a Knight is quick and fun, granting you a Knightly Title, a Background life before you swore the Oath, and a Weapon style you thrive in. LONGSWORD asks you to put yourself in danger in order to have your knightly Virtues tested, these stats moving up and down as you create your own dramatic tale.

Generate a Knight in one click!


Also included is a Game Masters Guide with helpful tips on how to run the game, the general vibe of the world, and guidelines on creating a Quest and Monsters to fill it with. Create fascinating tales of morals as knights who hold themselves as virtuous face off against beasts and magic they don't understand to learn something and change who they are.

Wait, that's not how I remember the story...

After a failed roll, a player may interrupt and say "wait, that's not how I remember the story..." and flip the 10s and 1s digits of their roll (a 64 becomes a 46). They will then proceed to dictate something they actually did, had on them, or was going on in order to turn a failure into a success.

Prophetic Visions

You may mark Destiny to have a strange power overcome you as you gain visions of the future. They may reveal events for the quest you are on, or even peer into the future of your or a companion's destiny, or even the destiny of the world itself.

Horse Drifting

You can make extremely sharp turns and hard maneuvers while riding your mount. Your mount does not get hurt in the process.

Make a roll (70), if you succeed you gain a speed boost for a brief moment
