Song of the Scryptwyrm

Once upon a time in the infinite and ever-changing Great Library, there lived a fairy tale in search of being told, for that is how such stories survive and grow. It was the tale of an impossible theft, so it found a target, it found a thief, and soon after that, the Scryptwyrm found that a vital song had been stolen from its mind.

Song of the Scryptwyrm is a stand-alone solo mystery RPG that takes place in the Great Library. You assume the role of a Librarian's apprentice and - together with your familiar - gather clues, identify the culprit, and recover a stolen song.

This 60-page, full color game is a hack of the Hints & Hijinx solo mystery game system from Pandion Games and can optionally be played as a sequel to the CRIT Award-winning solo RPG The Librarian's Apprentice, continuing your journey to becoming a Librarian. 

It contains:

• 36 potential suspects, contacts, or witnesses, plus generators for creating your own
• 18 locations, plus generators for creating your own
• Tables of motives, methods, and opportunities
• Ephemera from around the Great Library
