Setting
The setting closely resembles earth's medieval Period except with the inclusion of the Deryni, a race of humans with powers like mental telepathy and telekinesis. Many of the stories focus around the conflicts between these two races.[1]
System
The Deryni Adventure Game uses Freeform Universal Donated Game Engine (FUDGE), a system created in 1992 by Steffan O'Sullivan on the rec.games.design newsgroup. Its design focuses more on the story and the player instead of dice throws.
