Pre-Orders of Bestiary and Hardback Rulebook, Both Available in Collector’s Editions, Give Immediate PDF Access
From cat people to chimeras, fairies to frog people, hippogriffs to hydras, and many more – creatures both wondrous and horrifying are coming! Free League Publishing has announced the upcoming Bestiary for the recently released fantasy RPG Dragonbane.
The Dragonbane Bestiary includes no less than 63 creatures, each brought to life in text and art, as well as a random encounter and a seed for a complete adventure. Among these fantastic beings, there are nine new playable kin included, each with their own unique ability.
The full-color hardcover book is gloriously illustrated by the artists Johan Egerkrans and David Brasgalla. The book will be available both in a standard edition and in a premium collector’s edition, with a faux leather cover and gold foil print.
Free League also announced a complete cardboard Standee Set for the creatures in the Bestiary for use on a battle map, available separately.
The Dragonbane Bestiary and Standee Set are now available for pre-order in the Free League webstore. Pre-orders will give immediate access to the complete PDF of the Bestiary ahead of the release in Q1 2024.
In addition, Free League announced a hardback version of the DragonbaneRulebook — also in a standard edition and a premium collector´s edition, with a faux leather cover and gold foil print. The contents of the separate Rulebook is the same as in the softcover rulebook in the boxed Dragonbane Core Set, but has an added introductory adventure – The Castle of the Robber Knight. Just like the Bestiary, the Rulebook is now available for pre-order in the Free League webshop, with immediate PDF access.
Oh, will no good deed go unpunished? I suppose time will tell, but right now things are looking bleak indeed. I have wandered, ridden, climbed, crawled, and swum all over this earth; I have spoken with all manners of creatures, observed, analyzed, and recorded almost everything worth knowing about the people and beings of the world. And yet here I am, unthanked and crouched in a godforsaken crevice, hunted by several of the creatures that I’ve graciously included in my catalog. How astoundingly rude!

About Dragonbane
A legend is reborn. Dragonbane is a fantasy tabletop roleplaying game full of magic, mystery, and adventure.
“Of the many TTRPGs played this year, Dragonbane stands out as one of the best.”
– ScreenRant Review
“This feels like the kind of game that you play when you may have forgotten why you enjoy fantasy roleplaying, just to remind yourself of some of the wonders of adventuring.”
– Gnome Stew Review
“Dragonbane is now my go-to fantasy TTRPG, and it gets a huge recommendation from me.”
– Pop Geeks Review
Dragonbane is the reimagined version of the classic Swedish fantasy RPG Drakar och Demoner, a tabletop roleplaying game full of magic, mystery, and adventure. Dragonbane was voted one of the most anticipated RPGs of 2023 at EN World and has received high praise in reviews since its recent release in August this year.
Dragonbane is designed from the ground up to facilitate fast and furious play, with very little prep time and adventures that are a breeze to run. This is a game with room for laughs at the table, while still offering brutal challenges for the adventurers. A playstyle Free League calls “mirth and mayhem roleplaying” – great for long campaigns, but also perfect for a one-shot.
