Vaturankha Island: Solitaire roleplaying game

Prepare your sheet, make plot decisions, roll the dice, fight, equip, imagine what will happen, consult the oracle… because now you are the protagonist. If you are reading this paragraph, it means that you have decided to enter Black Sphynx, a collection of books designed for solo roleplaying.

This full-color book in PDF format is a visual oracle whose main purpose is to give you the opportunity to live an incredibly ‘replayable’ adventure. As such, it will be in some ways unlike anything you’ve seen before. In short, what distinguishes this oracle from many others is its ability to create a very visual story. As a result, you will travel through a world that will always be different, set against the backdrop of a goal-based adventure. So, from a starting point, you will shape the game universe by going through different pages.

As you progress, you will discover images that will present you with a variety of challenges. These may be physical, mental, social or resource-related. Successfully overcoming one of these challenges can earn you Action Points, so that you can progress from one act to the next until you reach the final challenge and end the adventure.

If you are already used to using an oracle, you will find that this one will guide you quite a lot, giving you the necessary guidelines to enter the world presented to you and live your story. To play this book, you will also need the first volume of the Black Sphynx collection, entitled The Sibyl’s Scrolls. This is an extensive collection of oracles, easy and quick to use, which will be very useful as you move through the game universe. In this way, we will use The Sibyl’s Scrolls to provide narrative, description, additional information and answers to the events of your adventure. Don’t worry if you have any questions about this now, as they will be answered throughout the rules.
