The Perilous Arts
An unofficial supplement for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay Second Edition, focused on combat, magic, damage, healing, and corruption. It includes advice for running rules-light, narrative combat; alternative rules using variable-duration actions; and additional penalties for wounds and complications for healing. Magic options cover modifying spell effects, learning spells individually, and converting First Edition spells for use in Second Edition. A corruption mechanic tracks a spellcaster’s decline, including disfigurement and the possibility of becoming a non-player character.
