This book contains the game mechanics for the *Lames du Cardinal* role-playing game. You’ll find character creation and the game system—richly illustrated with examples—as well as the mechanics and tips that allow the game master to run *Lames* campaigns. Two extensive scenarios round out this volume. The first is an ambitious introductory scenario that brings the Blades into direct contact with Dumasian mythology. The second plunges the Blades into the Fronde and the draconic intrigues that accompany it.
