Perils & Princesses is a game of gritty & pretty fairy tale adventure. Steel your resolve, gather your grace and sharpen your wits, and you might just live…Happily Ever After. Play as Princesses who don't need saving, they'll be their own heroes! With magical Gifts from their Fairy Godmothers to aid them in their quest through the enchanted forest, they set out. With a bright sword in hand, they faced threats and saved the realm time and time again. Can they do it once more?

Today's adventure pitch is for The Eternal Ball:

Your skin tingles with magic, and you find yourself stepping out of an intricately decorated mirror. You’re in a grand foyer filled with fae dressed in the most elaborate, sumptuous fashion you’ve ever seen. They form a line that leads to a set of open double doors manned by a lone fae. Though the doors are open, beyond it you see only a colorful, hazy sheen. You have arrived at The Eternal Ball, an endless party that has been in full swing for decades, guests arriving and leaving as they please. It is split into three sections, each representing a different time of day: dawn, noon, and twilight. You are here to obtain a ring from the imperious Erlking, a key component in stopping a terrible curse that has befallen your lands. When time is of the essence in a place where time seems to be eternal, what will happen? Play to find out!

This game will be great if you like whimsical settings, fairytales, OSR/NSR games, and creative problem-solving.

New players are welcome. The game runner is very familiar with this system.

The game runner will provide pre-generated characters to pick from.

This game will be hosted in room #2 of the TTRPG Pickup Con Discord server, and spectators are welcome. Using Miro whiteboards. https://miro.com/

Perils & Princesses is a game of gritty & pretty fairy tale adventure. Steel your resolve, gather your grace and sharpen your wits, and you might just live…Happily Ever After.

Play as Princesses who don't need saving, they'll be their own heroes! With magical Gifts from their Fairy Godmothers to aid them in their quest through the enchanted forest, they set out. With bright sword in hand, they faced threats and saved the realm time and time again. Can they do it once more? Once upon a time, there was a Princess named Elysia, who ruled over the humble village of Willowbrook nestled amidst the lush embrace of the forest. The villagers of Willowbrook revered Princess Elysia. She was their guardian. Her Rosewood Crown, a gift from her Fairy Godmother, gave her the ability to channel the powers of nature and protect the villagers from harm. But even in the most enchanting of tales, darkness has a way of slithering into the hearts of the unsuspecting. A cruel conjurer, Velesar, preyed upon the Princess's kindness. He stole the Princess's crown for his own nefarious purposes and broke her heart. Vanishing into the depths of the forest, the sorcerer left no trace behind, leaving the Princess bereft, her heart heavy with sorrow. Ages passed, and the crown was forgotten. The only relic of Princess Elysia is a moss-covered statue in the town square, with Elysia's mournful likeness carved in stone. A Princess without a crown. Recently, strange occurrences have been frightening the villagers. Crops suddenly rot. Groups of deer and rabbits flee the nearby forest. Reports of strange sounds and mysterious disappearances put everyone on edge. Furthermore, each of you has plagued by the same dream—you see visions of Princess Elysia beckoning you to a giant tree in a clearing deep in the forest. It's time to find the Rosewood Crown.

"Perils & Princesses is a fantasy role-playing game of gritty and pretty fairy tale adventure. Steel your resolve, gather your grace, and sharpen your wits, and you might just live…Happily Ever After.

Remember that scene in Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs when our hero runs off into the deep dark forest, narrowly avoiding the pitfalls and horrors within? Or when Dorothy Gale throws a bucket of water in the face of the Wicked Witch? This game is all about the humble moments of heart and heroism of storybook princesses.

These adventurers rely on baskets of goodies, trusty hatchets, and their hidden talents to help them on their way. The gifts from their Fairy Godmothers help them call upon woodland animals, sing enchanting songs, or connect with the elements of nature as they dig deep to survive the perils that await them."
