Core Rulebook
“In the ruins of Symbaroum a dream sight revealed
a well, a cauldron, a sinkhole.
Out of its depth a blightling came sidling,
filth forged in flesh, cruelty carved in bone,
a decoction of the World Serpent’s marrow.
The blight beast ogled me hungrily
and in its burning eyes I saw the death of all.”
The Dream Continues
The creaTion of Symbaroum
was governed by one
primary principle – that we ourselves should enjoy both
playing and reading it. We had achieved great success
using that formula before, so our hopes were high when
the Swedish version of the game finally launched, in the
summer of 2014. Looking back, the hopes we harbored
back then are starting to appear more and more modest
as time goes by.
It has been an adventure. Really. Not only have we
faced daunting challenges, many of which seemed
impossible when first encountered, and gained
Experience
allowing us to hone our skills and acquire
many new ones. We have experienced heartbreaking
losses and gratifying victories; had minstrels (or at least
bloggers) both scorn and praise our achievements; and
traveled to marketplaces (read: conventions) far and
wide to meet people interested in the artifacts we have
been able to salvage.
When these words are written, the
Symbaroum Core
Rulebook
will soon be available in seven languages
and the game is attracting an ever growing number
of players. We can be nothing but thankful that so
many others seem to share our tastes when it comes
to both game mechanics and game world design.
Inspired, encouraged and full of vigor we welcome the
challenges of the future, and we hope that you do the
same. Whether you aspire to spread the light of Prios
or are fighting to stop said light from penetrating the
swaying roof of the Forest of Davokar, the battle for
The Throne of Thorns has only just begun!
Happy gaming!
