Advanced Sorcery Is a Supplement to the Magic World Roleplaying Game Sample file Sample file ABOUT THIS BOOK Advanced Sorcery is a supplement to the Magic World roleplaying game. With a trivial amount of effort on the part of the enterprising Chronicler, Advanced Sorcery may be used with the Basic Roleplaying core rules. This book reworks some information from Chaosium games and books originally published as Elric!, the Bronze Grimoire, The Unknown East, and Melniboné. Those texts have been revised and expanded for this book. New material has been added to enhance the themes of heroic fantasy. Many great supple- ments and rules additions have been published for Basic Roleplaying over the years. As a service to our many loyal fans and friends, Chaosium is currently working to bring some of those books back into print, with revisions to bring them in line with current Basic Roleplaying rules. We hope that those of you who used these rules in the past, as well as those who are new to this material, will find enjoyment in this book and that it enhances your game. The authorial credits for those earlier works are as follows: Elric!: Lynn Willis, Richard Watts, Mark Morrison, Jimmie Pursell, Sam Shirley Bronze Grimoire: Ross Isaacs Unknown East: Lawrence Whitaker Melniboné: Richard Watts, Geoff Gillan, Penelope Love, Mark Morrison Basic Roleplaying: Jason Durall, Sam Johnson RuneQuest Vikings Players Book: Sandy Petersen and Greg Stafford Most, if not all of those books were skillfully edited by Lynn Willis and Charlie Krank. The compilations, revisions, and additions to the current text are by Ben Monroe. The Advanced Sorcery chapter was written by Charles Green. Nick Middleton wrote Arete. Special thanks also to David Ackerman, Jason Durall, Ian Kaufman and Steven Leary for helping out with a million bits and bobs throughout the revision.
