Making Friends

Our characters start as normal children from our world, called Friends. Each Friend is between the age of 8 and 12, and each Friend Type (like Liar, Know it all or Brat) has a different set of capabilities and personality traits.

Developing your characters

Once we start to explore Yeld, we’ll get to take on Heroic Jobs like Witch, Soul Thief and Shepherd. These Jobs will give us powerful abilities that allow us to face down dangerous monsters and take on difficult adventures. As we explore Yeld, we may decide to switch Jobs, taking some of what we learned from our last Job to our new Job. There are so many Jobs to choose from, and so much to learn!

  • Your first Jobs: Heroic Jobs

    After discovering the secret door to Yeld you'll take on your first Job. there are 8 Heroic Jobs to choose from. Switch Jobs as often as you like to collect unique skills and abilities!

  • Discover Advanced Jobs

    Discover Advanced Jobs as you explore Yeld, like Vampire Hunter and Drudge Angel. These Jobs are powerful but specialized.

  • Monster Jobs

    The longer you stay in Yeld, the more its magic will change you. If you turn 13 while in Yeld you'll take on Monster Job like Deep Mage and Serpent Oracle!

Building Adventures

Our adventures in Yeld are a story that we create and tell together. In each session of Yeld the Game Master will guide players through a story, built with direct input from other player using the guidelines we call the Adventure Map!

A story we tell together!

One of Yeld's core features is that once an adventure ends, the role of Game Master can pass to a new player, meaning every player gets a turn to drive the story!

We’ll tell that new player what we’d like to see in our next session -
"More sword fights!"
"Explore the Ogre Caves!"
"Learn to cook Snake Cakes!"

The new Game Master will build a new adventure for us to play, using our suggestions to continue the story where the last GM left off. Each adventure we’ll take turns playing the role of GM. Our goal will be to work together to tell a story that we’ve all had a hand in creating, and we’ll discover that our adventures are more fun and more challenging because they’re stories we’ve created together!

Fights!

You may notice that many adventures in Yeld sound a little bit like video games - some of our favorites are Final Fantasy and Legend of Zelda!

Fights in Yeld take inspiration from classic fantasy video games to provide deep turn based, team based action! In Yeld we’ll win fights with teamwork, and every character will get a chance to shine!

A Magical Land...

Yeld is full of strange magic, and the Friends will be able to learn spells and use magical items as they explore and take on Heroic Jobs.

But even the simplest spells can dangerously backfire, resulting in absolute havoc!

A poor dice roll can turn a friend into a goat, create a magical snow storm or turn your pants into a carnivorous monster!

Travel and Time

We may have arrived in Yeld as children, but each day we get older, and if we turn 13 while we’re still in Yeld we’ll become a monster! We’ll take on a Monster Job (like Vampire or Deep Mage) and be stuck in Yeld forever.

Our time in Yeld is a race against the clock to see if we can find a way home before we become monsters! 

  • Mapping Yeld

    Time and distance are important in Yeld. As we travel we’ll create a Map that will show us where we’ve been and help us keep track of every town, cave and castle we discover.

  • Calendar

    Traveling takes time, so we’ll mark off each day on our Calendar. As time passes, so do events in Yeld, and we grow closer to our 13th birthdays.

  • Holidays

    Yeld is full of special Holidays
    like the Blue Wind Kite Flying Festival and Black Opera Tournament, and
    if we arrive in the right town in time for these Holidays we can
    participate in special events to gain unique or rare rewards!

Speaking of Monsters...

Yeld is full of strange and creepy creatures. Not everything you meet in Yeld wants to eat you (there are some very nice Medusas!), but...

Vampires, Fairy soldiers, Mermaid thieves, Toothfacers, Tunnel Mummies, Serpent Oracles, Scuba Snakes and all kinds of horrible stuff are lurking around every corner and in every cave!

Build your own Monsters with Yeld's easy to use Monster Formula, of choose from a huge selection of ready to play Monsters!

You're almost ready...
