The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG is a fan-made, unofficial Tabletop RPG based on the world of Hollow Knight. It utilizes a d6 dice pool system, and has a very versatile character creation system that allows players to combine a variety of different physical traits to simulate playing as practically any kind of arthropod imaginable.Due to the constraints of Hollow Knight's setting of Hallownest, the creators of the RPG have also made an original setting called Oakshade, meant to serve as a world more conducive to tabletop RPG adventures.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })It can be downloaded at itch.io here. | |

Counterspell | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_118f2b11 | comment |
Counterspell/Dispel Magic: The Dispel Arcana is available to bugs on the Path of the Spire, and allows the caster to dispel magical effects or cast it as a reaction to counter another Arcana. It only works on weak spells by default, but the caster is able to counter more powerful spells by spending more Soul when they cast Dispel. | |

Dream Walker | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_1226f314 | comment |
Dream Walker: The Speak With Dreams spell allows a bug to enter the dreams of a sleeping creature. After the fact, the target doesn't fully remember what happened in the dream and believes that anything they were convinced of in the dream was actually their own idea. | |

Magic Wand: One of the foci that can be used to store spells is the wand. It counts as a 1-damage ranged weapon and allows the wielder to use Grace for spellcasting in place of Insight. | |

Adventure-Friendly World | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_1e75509c | comment |
Adventure-Friendly World: The entire point of the setting is to provide a world more suited to TTRPG adventures than Hallownest. The centerpiece is a massive tree inhabited by numerous cultures from enigmatic nomads to ruthless autocrats with a Great Big Library of Everything in its leaves and an Eldritch Location beneath its roots; while the land beyond the Great Oak has pirates, spirits, witches, monsters, and mysteries aplenty. Not to mention that the region has been thrown into instability due to a desperate war for survival against an Evil Overlord and his armies of twisted Battle Thralls, adding even more chaos and conflict in which adventures might take place both in the Oak and outside of it. | |

The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_27a40541 | comment |
Furry Confusion: Naturally for a setting where most of the people and animals are bugs, you can run into this on occasion. As an example, Oakshade has a species of unintelligent beetle used as beasts of burden while also having clans of sapient beetles. | |

Battle Thralls | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_326bed3 | comment |
Battle Thralls: The Lord of Dust has a habit of taking a single species from each kingdom he conquers, typically against their will. The scorpions are the exception to this, as they chose to serve him. The Locusts were once a peaceful and rustic society of crickets, twisted into a ravenous swarm by the Lord of Dust's foul magic. The Cicadas were enslaved by the Lord of Dust for their hibernation, as it meant that they could sustain themselves without food for the long spans between invasions. Though they have not been added to his ranks yet, the Lord of Dust has his eyes set on enslaving the ants as a force of diligent and loyal workers to support his army. | |

La Résistance: Though the Kingdom of Sidhean has fallen to the Lord of Dust, the ants haven't given up the fight. What's left of them has reorganized into a literally underground resistance movement, hiding in a network of tunnels to shelter themselves from the searing sunlight as they work to undermine their conquerors. | |

White Mage | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_358388f6 | comment |
White Mage: The Path of Bloom grants a bug magical abilities to heal and defend their allies, and is notable for being the only Path that doesn't grant any abilities that can deal damage. Though this ends up being somewhat subverted by the fact that the most reliable way to generate Soul for spellcasting is to attack enemies in melee, so even a healing and support-focused bug is going to have to wade into combat sooner or later. | |

One-Handed Zweihänder: Most two-handed weapons can be wielded with just one hand by any bug with at least 5 Might or the Bug of Burden trait, though some weapons are so unwieldy that they always need two hands to wield no matter what. | |

Shear Menace | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_3856d429 | comment |
Shear Menace: Scissor blades are one-handed weapons that can be dual-wielded or linked together to form a pair of scissors which functionally allows you to hit the enemy with both blades at once. Notably a single Scissor counts as both a Nail and a Hook for the purposes of weapon arts, while a linked pair of scissors is in the Needle and Tusk categories, meaning that a scissor-wielding character has access to a wide variety of weapon arts. | |

Virtuous Bees | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_4109a4a3 | comment |
Virtuous Bees: The Apidaen Union ruled Oakshade long ago, before they were ousted by the wasps. Not much detail is given on them, but they're described as being deeply spiritual, approached their subjects on more equal footing than the wasps, and despite having an Insect Queen they were actually a representative democracy where the queen only served as a temporary leader in times of crisis, all of which paints them in a very positive light. | |

Desperation Attack: The Brutal Instinct weapon art allows a bug to add the difference between their maximum Hearts and current Hearts as damage to their next attack, as well as adding bonus dice to the attack roll equal to the number of status conditions and Damage Over Time effects that currently affect them. Immediately after making this attack, the bug falls unconscious until the end of the Scene. | |

Mind-Control Music | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_41a0601f | comment |
Mind-Control Music: The Enrapture spell typically works through eye contact, but spending a point of Essence allows the spell to be cast through song instead. This allows the spell to affect creatures who use senses other than vision such as scent or tremorsense, increases the spell's range, and (if the caster is actually good at singing) makes the effect harder to resist. | |

Hyperactive Metabolism | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_4252fdf6 | comment |
Hyperactive Metabolism: Certain traits allow a bug to expend Belly to gain some other benefit, such as the Regeneration trait spending Belly to regain Hearts, or the Large Stomach trait allowing them to spend Belly in place of Stamina. The Devourer trait doesn't make a bug spend Belly, but instead allows them to regain a point of Heart, Soul, or Stamina when they consume enough flesh or blood from sapient bugs, as well as letting them eat corpses very quickly. This is generally Averted though, as while having a full stomach causes a bug to heal faster when they rest, the aforementioned traits are needed to have any kind of instant benefit from food. | |

Insect Queen: The leader of the Vespine Authority holds the title of High Queen while individual cities and provinces are ruled by Low Queens, who are also called Overseers. The society of the ants has mostly collapsed following the Sandwyrm's conquest of their lands, but they seem to have had a similar system. The bees were a subversion, as while they did have "Queens," the Apidaen Union was actually a democracy where the Queens only acted as temporary leaders in times of crisis. | |

Emotion Eater: Spirits that feed on emotion naturally accumulate in the Bayou for reasons unclear, and are divided into the So'Raseo, Dream spirits that eat positive emotions, and the En'Raseo, Nightmare spirits that eat negative emotions. The former are considered malignant entities often blamed for woes such as a sudden loss of passion in a relationship or lack of motivation, while the latter are summoned by witch doctors to relieve bugs of things like anxiety and depression. | |

The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_4ffde1e0 | comment |
Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: Shields allow the bug wielding them to parry incoming attacks, making a Might roll against an incoming attack in order to negate it. The shield's quality is also added to this roll, meaning that even characters with fairly low Might and high Grace will find a Parry to be a more reliable defense than a Dodge. | |

Tough Beetles: The Beetle Clans are a Proud Warrior Race with a culture oddly described as being similar to professional wrestling, of all things, right down to having Faces and Heels. Each clan devotes itself to a particular fighting style and takes part in a highly ritualized, non-lethal "war" with one another to prove the effectiveness of their chosen style. | |

Magic Knight | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_58204b95 | comment |
Magic Knight: Something of a necessity; the fact that the most reliable way to generate Soul for spellcasting is to attack enemies in melee means that even a healing and support-focused bug is going to have to wade into combat sooner or later, so magic-focused characters are likely to be at least passable in a fight. There's also nothing stopping a player from taking ranks in both Martial and Mystic paths, or making a spellcasting-focused character with high Shell and Hearts who wears heavy armor. | |

Damage Reduction | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_64cf3b3f | comment |
Damage Reduction: Characters struck by an attack can roll a number of dice equal to their Shell score to absorb an amount of damage equal to the successes rolled. Armor increases the number of dice rolled, and heavier armors provide a flat damage reduction as well. Most bugs aren't able to soak magical damage, but some special equipment like Lustrous armor or the Spiral Mark trait allow them to do so. | |

Herbivores Are Friendly: Something of a trope In-Universe. A character with the Herbivore trait gains a small bonus to their Cute score, making them better at social interactions where they need to appear friendly and non-threatening. This doesn't necessarily mean that the character is friendly or non-threatening, just that they're more easily perceived as such by others than they would be if they ate meat. | |

Scary Scorpions: The scorpion tribes inhabit the desert wasteland to the northeast of the Great Oak.

Unlike the other two species who serve the Lord of Dust, the scorpions do so willingly. | |

The Undead: Husks are the shells of bugs filled with sand and dust, animated with magic. They're typically mcreated by Dust mages, though can also be created when a bug who suffers from the the Dust Curse dies of natural causes or starvation. They have no Hearts, only Shell, and take Shell damage when they would lose Hearts. They can also be "killed" by reducing their Soul score to 0, removing the magic that animates them. | |

I Don't Like the Sound of That Place: Pretty much any location related to the Lord of Dust. The place where the Sandwyrm shed its shell is called the Tumor of Dustbarrow and the cactus he currently uses as a base of operations is called the Throne of Thorns, while the lands he conquered were all renamed to something suitably sinister; what was once the bountiful fields where the grasshoppers lived is now the Sallow Garden, the bamboo forest of the cicadas is now the Shattered Forest, and the highlands of the ants is now the Ashen Moor. | |

Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: All wyrms possess an innate desire to forge a great civilization, but this is an impossible goal for the Sandwyrm whose presence spreads madness and death regardless of intent. It sought the advice of other Higher Beings, but even the merciful Tree-Mother could not abide something so antithetical to life and cast it out. Eventually it shed its skin to take a new form as the Lord of Dust, deciding that if he could not forge his own kingdom, he would steal the kingdoms of others, moving on to the next as each inevitably withered and died from his influence until the entire world is reduced to a barren, lifeless wasteland. | |

Proud Warrior Race: Several. The Wasps are renowned for their ferocity in combat and pride as warriors, and it is generally agreed that Oakshade would be in a far worse state than it already is if not for their skill and cleverness in defending it. The culture of the Beetle Clans is oddly described as being similar to professional wrestling, of all things, right down to having Faces and Heels. Each clan devotes itself to a particular fighting style and takes part in a highly ritualized, non-lethal "war" with one another to prove the effectiveness of their chosen style. The crabs and crayfish of the Stillwater Sea are both this, which has led to a fierce rivalry between the two. | |

Shield Bash: A shield can be used as a melee weapon, but unless it has the Balanced modifier it has low damage and no bonuses to the attack roll from its quality, so it's not recommended. Even with the Balanced modifier it's inferior to an actual weapon, but being able to wield both a shield and a passable offense in the same hand can be useful. | |

Black Magic: Dust magic is this.

Just knowing it transformed the peaceful and pastoral crickets into the endlessly ravenous locusts, and it's the reason why his Battle Thralls are so loyal - they're just as twisted and evil as he is. | |

Point Build System: At character creation the players can choose from a variety of traits, both physical ones (such as flight, extra legs, or blindness) and mental ones (such as a personality trait), and even a few magical traits. Positive traits increase the character's Hunger score (up to a maximum depending on the bug's size), while negative ones decrease the bug's Hunger. Having a higher Hunger causes the bug to require more food with each rest, and to starve more quickly if they are unable to eat. | |

Parasites Are Evil: This trope is Downplayed with the ticks and fleas, who are portrayed as mostly being made up of criminals who use trickery and misdirection to pull one over on their opponents. This is implied to be due to their size rather than their parasitism though, as they need to use underhanded tactics to make up for just how much smaller they are than all of the other bugs. It's worth noting that the other two bloodsuckers, leeches and mosquitos, are painted in a fairly positive light. | |

Magic Staff | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_c97ca4d8 | comment |
Magic Staff: A staff can be used as a focus for storing spells, and can be affixed with an ornament that allows the wielder to alter the Difficulty of a spell by 1 point without increasing the cost of casting the spell, as long as the Ornament is aligned to the same Mystic Path that the spell belongs to. | |

Horror Hunger | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_cf7b362 | comment |
Horror Hunger: The Lord of Dust's influence on the peaceful and pastoral crickets transformed them into the locusts, endlessly ravenous horrors who never stop eating. They never die of old age, as they simply grow larger and larger with age until they physically cannot find enough food to sustain themselves. | |

Politically-Active Princess: "Princess" is the title for any of the Overseers that the High Queen deems worthy of becoming part of the line of succession, and as such any wasp who holds the title of princess has already proven herself a competent ruler. | |

Vampiric Draining | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_d53d0080 | comment |
Vampiric Draining: Any character with the Bloodsucker trait is able to drain blood from other creatures in order to feed themselves. This is useful for stretching out the party's food supplies and getting around disadvantages from the Carnivore and Herbivore traits - even if there's no food that the bloodsucker can eat, they can just drain nutrients from their allies who don't have such restrictions on their diet. | |

World Tree: The reason why the setting is called "Oakshade." The Great Oak, also known as the God-Tree, is large enough to house an entire civilization and is said to have been created in order to shelter the bugs of the land from the scorching sun. Though seeing as everyone in the setting is a bug, it's unclear if the tree is only enormous relative to its inhabitants. | |

Witch Doctor: This is the hat of the leeches inhabiting the Bayou, who are explicitly referred to as witch doctors. They practice a ritual form of bloodletting, believing that by drinking the blood of a patient then can also drain them of both physical ailments and of the patient's sins. They also perform magical services like the conjuring of helpful spirits and exorcism of harmful ones, though it's noted that some less benevolent leeches will intentionally conjure harmful spirits to inflict them on a rival. | |

The Perfectionist: The Mantid Clans' hat. They believe in seeking perfection in everything, refusing to do almost anything publicly until it can be done flawlessly. This applies to nearly everything they do from combat to crafts, to the point that most mantises will even refuse to lie as they consider it imperfect speech. | |

Character Class System | |
The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG (Tabletop Game) / int_e4878443 | comment |
Character Class System: Referred to as "Paths," each class has three ranks that a bug can take, and characters are fully able to mix and match different Paths as they increase in power. They are divided into Martial and Mystic Paths, the former granting an additional Stamina for each rank and the latter granting an additional Soul and access to spells unique to that Path. Path of the Nail: The well-rounded "Warrior" class. The Path's abilities grant Boring, but Practical bonuses to combat, allowing them to hit more often and more reliably. Path of the Needle: Bugs who follow this Path are agile warriors, dashing around the battlefield and dodging away from enemy attacks. Path of the Tusk: Tuskbugs focus on the use of heavy weapons, battering enemies into submission with relentless force. Path of the Hook: The Rogue, focusing on traps and underhanded tactics. Path of the Maw: A Path favoring overwhelming aggression and the use of natural weapons. Path of the Shell: The Tank, focusing on defense and keeping enemies from moving away from them. Path of the Sling: The Path for long-distance fighters, granting various bonuses to the use of ranged weapons. Path of the Flask: This Path grants the bug skill with the mixture and application of flasks, throwing out chemical mixtures to heal or harm. Path of the Spire: The "purest" Mage of the Mystic Paths, granting bonuses to all spellcasting and a very generalist choice of spells, including support, utility, and damage. Path of the Cloak: An extremely mobile Path, allowing a bug to move around the battlefield with ease and granting them spells that increases this capability even further, including Teleportation. Path of the Dream: This Path allows the bug to harness the powers of mind and memory, granting them clairvoyance, the ability to communicate with spirits, and spells that allow them to weave illusions and peer into the minds of others. Path of the Nightmare: A more sinister counterpart to the Path of Dream, allowing a bug to draw power from death and granting them spells that summon flames and manipulate the mind. Path of the Bloom: The White Mage, with abilities themed around nature and healing and spells almost entirely devoted to supporting their allies. Path of the Thorn: This path focuses more on the nastier parts of nature, granting the bug skill with poisons and spells that allow them to conjure thorns and poisons. Path of the Dust: The Necromancer, able to turn dead bugs into Husks under their control and use spells that inflict pain, death, and madness. | |

Me's a Crowd: The Swarm spell allows the caster to split into a number of smaller versions of themself, all able to act independently of one another and each possessing a portion of the caster's resource pools. Overlaps with One to Million to One, as the caster can choose to cast it as a reaction to taking damage, negating that damage at the cost of essence. | |
