Apprentices of the Magere - Ashcan
A downloadable game
A Magickal Game
Apprentices of the Magere dreams of Magick, daemons, and children uncovering the mysteries and secrets of their master. The system is split between balancing your month-to-month schedule of chores and lessons alongside casting spells.
Take up your wand, apprentice, take up your pouch and vial and quill, your blessings of Blood, Thorn, Iron, and Ink. There are mysteries to be found and books to uncover. Do not let the daemons catch you.

Books of the Magere, containing the rules for spellcasting, the Syllabus, 5 Fundamental Texts, 4 Advanced Fundamentals, 20 Obscure Texts, and 8 Forbidden Books, as well as a total of 58 spells.

Hi there,
I'm having a great time reading though the system - there's a lot of interesting ideas! I'd like to playtest and fill out the form but first there are a few things that I find confusing. Is there a preferred place to send clarifications or feedback about the text itself?
Hi! You could send me a message on Discord @belac93 or twitter at the same.
