The Year is 2069...

The setting is Great Britain. The Tories have been in power since 2010. 

Due to National Health Service cuts, trans healthcare has become increasingly hard to access. The waiting list for a first appointment at a gender identity clinic is now 300 years. They don’t want to outright refuse you; that would imply that the health service is over capacity or underfunded. Instead they will simply add you to the end of the list and wait for you to die. 

But they are fools. For you have learned the secrets of immortality. And you will get to the end of that waiting list, even if it means waiting another millennium...

This is a game about spite, necromancy, being trans, and a 300 year long NHS waiting list. Although the game itself deals with serious themes, it is set up to be tongue-in-cheek, satirical, super queer, and intimate. 

Content note: this game contains discussions of the difficulties surrounding trans healthcare, which may be a sensitive topic.

Lichcraft is a rules-light tabletop RPG set up to be played with 2 or more players. The play is inspired by Forged in the Dark systems, with a simple D6-pool resolution mechanic. Instead of choosing classes or players, characters begin by choosing their politics, hobby, day job, and magical source, and use attributes from these to add to their dice rolls. 

Give this game a try if you like dystopian settings, collaborative world-building and play,  magic wielding queer characters,  interesting and individualistic ways of spellcasting, and undeath as a metaphor for... something.

Shipping

I use Royal Mail to ship all books both domestically and internationally. Shipping is real expensive these days but I've kept my margins as low as possible and grouped the shipping costs in weight increments of 250g to hopefully make it as fair as possible!

  • Within the UK: £4.50
  • Within the EU: starting at £6
  • Within the US: starting at £8
  • The rest of the world: starting at £7.5

I drop all parcels off with Royal Mail once a week on a Friday. Domestic parcels arrive within 1-2 business days, all other parcels arrive within 4-5 business days after being dropped off with Royal Mail.

Digital copies of all applicable products will be automatically emailed to you after checkout. Shoot us an email to store@peregrinecoast.press if you have any issues claiming your PDFs. 

I also collect taxes at checkout, so EU folks will have their packages sent duties paid. This means faster and cheaper delivery :)

This is part of the IOSS scheme. You'll see VAT-included prices on the shop (in EUR), I'll collect that VAT from you at checkout and remit it to your tax authority.
