Book Two: Old Ones is one of the most misunderstood books in Palladium Fantasy Second Edition. It looks like a monster book, but it isn’t. In this episode of The Summoner’s Circle Podcast, Vince digs into what the Old Ones really are, not bosses to be fought, but consequences that shape regions, magic, cults, and entire campaigns.
In this episode of the Summoner’s Circle, you get a straight, usable guide to making characters in Palladium Fantasy. Vince walks you through a better order than the one in the book on page 14. You start with the world overview on page 282 so you actually know where your character lives. Then you pick your race before you roll attributes, because races use different dice pools. That step alone saves mistakes and rerolls later.
