Son of Oak Game Studio’s Legend in the Mist, is a rustic fantasy RPG based on their award winning City of Mist narrative game engine. The game raised over $850,000 on Kickstarter in March 2024 and began shipping the physical books out to backers this week.

We are absolutely thrilled to announce the official collaboration between Son of Oak Game Studio and Hit Point Press! The beloved, vibrant world of Humblewood is crossing over with the rustic, evocative Legend in the Mist RPG system. Together, we are creating a brand-new setting book: Humblewood in the Mist!

TWO WORLDS, ONE MAGICAL JOURNEY

This upcoming book merges the rich, avian and mammalian cultures of the Wood with the cinematic, mist-shrouded mechanics or the Legend of the Mist engine.

  • Familiar Faces, New Engine: Play as your favourite Birdfolk and Humblefolk classes using a narrative-driven, tag-based system.

  • The Mist Creeps into the Wood: Experience a softer, more mysterious side of the Canopy and Forest Floor.

  • Legendary Quests: Discover how the ancient powers of the Amaranthine manifest through the unique theme and tag mechanics.

Humblewood is set in the world of Everden…

In the world of Everden, nestled between the mighty Crest mountain range and the vast marches of the Mokk Fields, lies a mystical forest known as Humblewood that hums with the Great Rhythm of nature. It has been ruled for generations by the birdfolk who inhabit the Great Tree-City of Alderheart. Humblewood has endured for centuries due to the industry and compassion of its people…

…but now the fires have come, and the Woods have been thrown into chaos. Flames ravage the land and destroy the homes of the humblefolk, stoking a growing resentment against the birdfolk, whose cities have managed to avoid the worst of the fires so far. Hatred burns in the hearts of those who have lost lives they cherished, and these once peaceful peoples now take up the sword and trun to banditry. The disaffected turn their gaze on Alderheart, and threaten to reduce an age of peace to ashes…

…yet there is still hope. Even in these dark times, brave heroes can be found within the Wood. Only they can quell the raging flames that have been unleashed upon the land, and restore balance to the realm. Will you answer the call?
