The Magus & The Oracle Solo RPG & Inspiration Deck

You are the Magus, the wizard of the lonely tower, and with these pages you will remember your story.

In The Magus, you use dice and pen to write the unique history of their quest for arcane mastery. You will navigate strange encounters and confront complex opportunities for learning spells, or cultivating tenuous bonds.

The Magus combines crunchy mechanics with narrative control. As a journaling game, it gives you the structure, the tools, and the prompts to spark a story that you narrate in a journal.

Use the power of dice and cards to chart your journey. You will use all six polyhedral dice to manage the Magus' traits: Focus, Power, Control, and Scars, which shape how the protagonist overcomes challenges and meets their denouement. An unlucky roll might bring you closer to calamity... But if you balance your aspects right, that may only be a faint possibility.

Shape the story with your ideas. The game's prompts evoke details for your spells, your bonds, your events. These details can be used to write a story, powered by serendipity and your imagination.
