Eldritch Defenders
A downloadable game
Hidden beneath the surface there’s another layer to the world. Supernatural creatures roam the shadows, living among and integrating into society as humankind expands into every corner they used to have to themselves. It was only a matter of time, then, before they found their way into our legal systems.
Looking for help.
The Eldritch Defenders program is a public defense office that runs alongside the mundane law offices throughout the country. You play those lawyers, paralegals, occultists, and other staff members that seek to do whatever they can to protect the populace from supernatural oaths and otherworldly laws, despite the difficulties of conflicting legal precedents, short-staffing, and lack of funding.
It’s not easy to do this job. But you swore an Oath.
And it’s magically binding.
The Game
Eldritch Defenders is a unique RPG taking place in the hidden supernatural law offices and contracted legal firms across the United States, wherein players take on the roles of overworked lawyers, secretaries, ritualists, researchers, and other staff members, doing their absolute best to provide legal assistance to both humans caught up in otherworldly bureaucracies and supernatural creatures caught up in our own. Rare experts like those in the Eldritch Defense program are hard to come by, so it's up to you to help those with nowhere else to go.
This book contains:
- Information on the Eldritch World that the EDP exists within.
- A unique resolution mechanic, the Adversarial System, which relies on withstanding external hardships more than testing your own capability directly.
- Example clients and advice in creating or generating new ones.
- Advice on how to merge this simple system with more complicated games, to bring a bit of legal drama to other genres.
