A Lonely Knave, Solo Roleplay Using Knave

ADD TO WISHLIST >

A Lonely Knave is one page, both sides, solo roleplay extension to Knave by Ben Milon (Questing Beast Games).

It uses the same Knave mechanics, it strives for the same look and feel, and it plays the same way.

There are some intrinsic elements of Knave that made it perfect for solo playing.

High compatibility with OSR games. You can use any OSR bestiaries, adventures and spell books, little or no conversion is needed to use them with Knave.

Fast to learn, easy to play. If you have solo played using any oracle system, you will pick this up instantly.

No classes. Every PC is a Knave, a tomb-raiding, adventure-seeking ne’er-do-well who wields a spell book just as easily as a blade. This is an ideal system for players who like their solo games to be wide-ranging and open-ended.

Player-facing rolls. Knave was built with player-facing rolls as an option. This means that in solo play you do not need to play both sides of the combat. Your character attacks and you roll the attack when your character is defending you roll to avoid being hit. It is all you, from your perspective.

Solo is a perfect way to learn a new game, test your first adventures and going beyond just making characters when you are first getting to know the rules.

Hi,
Thank you for telling me, but yes. They asked me before they did it and I gave them the text, as it was easier to work from than extracting it from the PDF.
The license that Ben Milton used is a CC BY license. It is about the most liberal license a document can have. I released this pamphlet under the same license and gave them the Maze Rat text as well.

There is now a French translation, and soon I hope to have a Polish version as well.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
