LOST

LOST is a Lightweight Old School Tactical tabletop fantasy RPG of dangerous expeditions, sharp class roles, scarce magic, and consequential tactical choices.  Characters are capable, but not invincible. Parties survive by planning, positioning, conserving resources, and trusting each other to do what their class does best.

Old-school danger. Modern table flow.

Public Beta v0.1 Is Available

The first LOST public beta release is live.

This initial beta focuses on levels 1-3 and includes:

• Core rules for character creation, exploration, combat, recovery, spellcasting, Arts, equipment, and beta terms.
• Eight launch classes: Knight Errant, Battleborn, Nightblade, Warden, Circleborn, Spellweaver, Soulwarden, and Luminar.
• Level 1-3 spells and Arts for the launch-scope beta classes.
• A two-page player rules reference for quick table use.

Bladesworn, Wayfinder, Dreambinder, and Gleeman are planned for later free beta class drops.

What LOST Is Built For

• Dangerous expeditions where retreat, preparation, and resource pressure matter.
• Fast combat turns with meaningful tactical choices.
• Clear class roles instead of every character doing everything.
• Scarce magic powered by Aether and Vitalis.
• Old-school pressure with cleaner modern table handling.

What Comes Next

Planned beta support drops include:

• LOST Beta GM Toolkit.
• Pregenerated characters.
• A starter encounter or introductory adventure.
• Blank character sheet support.

Playtest Status

LOST is unfinished beta material. Rules, names, classes, spells, Arts, balance, layout, presentation, and release plans may change before final publication.

Feedback is welcome. If you run LOST, please let us know what confused the table, what created the best decisions, which class roles clicked, and where the beta needs clearer support.
