In the world of the Blue Rose RPG, both good and evil have touched the natural world. The Light reached down and invested some animal-called rhydan-with souls, sapience, psychic power, and a deep need to fight against the wickedness of the world. Where Shadow has crept into the wilderness, it has given rise to abhorrent shadowspawn, things that rise against the Light and seek to spread their corruption far and wide. Touching the Wild is half shadowspawn bestiary and half rhydan player's guide, so useful to both Narrators and players. The bestiary presents shadowspawn of various power levels, making foes both fair and foul to face down the heroes of a Blue Rose chronicle. The player's guide offers advice for playing rhydan-including the option of an all rhydan chronicle-as well as a variety of talents, specializations, arcana, and equipment uniquely suited to rhydan characters. Light and shadow, friend and foe, Touching the Wild enhances any Blue Rose chronicle.
