Traditions from Beyond the Vale is a rules supplement for the Dragonbane TTRPG.
In this supplement you will find many new options for player characters and an extensive chapter on Alchemy mechanics. All these new options try to be as faithful as possible to the base game, both mechanics-wise and lore-wise. Alchemy, for example, is not just magic for non-mages but a new source of temporary powers that requires a bit of planning. Similarly, the new Innate Abilities give you more character variety while being inspired by the preexisting lore of each Kin.
