Book excerpt: The Hyborian age is the ultimate 'age undreamed of.' The Hyborian age is one of the fundamental inspirations for the sword-and-sorcery genre. The Hyborian age is an age of larger than life characters who take what they want at sword's length - or they use sorcery to fulfill their desires. It is a world where civilisation and barbarism co-exist with crimson clashes and a world where death can be found in almost any shadow or niche. The Hyborian age is an epoch where people called 'noble' are debauched and corrupt and people labelled as 'savage' are honourable and straight-forward. Aimed at players, this book allows players to make their characters less generic and more a product of this fascinating world. Armed with this book, a player will have tools to breathe additional life into their created characters.
