[from the back cover of book.] Every Life Story Is Worth Telling Epitaph is a role-playing game about a person who has died. Their life is a story that starts at the end, then jumps freely backward and forward to their most important moments. As you create their story, you'll discover who this person was and what made them special. Explore the life of... ...a devoted grandmother whose dream of owning her own restaurant came true... ...a bold captain who married her archival and became the most infamous pirate in the Viridian Isles... ...a sensitive soldier in the trenches who didn't make it home alive... ...an arrogant wizard who stove to unlock ancient secrets and found more than he bargained for... ...or anyone else you can imagine. No matter who you create, you'll come to know them as a unique individual whose life was messy, complicated, and beautiful. 3-5 players, 2-4 hours. No GM. No prep.
