Rubedo: The Occult Dawn

You are the sole survivor of the ruthless witch-hunts that eradicated all magic over 50 years ago. After a lifetime in prison, a royal bargain sets you free, tasking you with unleashing the chaos once sealed as the kingdom's last resort against an impending invasion. As you reconnect with your mystical potential, you face a crucial choice: wreak havoc with ancient spirits, monsters, and curses, or does the realm deserve a gentler touch? Innovative turn-based combat allows you to combine 9 alchemical symbols into 30 powerful sigils, promptly smiting a man or something far more foul. Unlock all symbols and develop new strategies through their creative combinations. Magic is never fully banished; the right ritual will surely bring back forces, whether merciful or chaotic. Turn dormant monuments into living places of magic. Rebuild a magical order from the ashes in a customizable underground scriptorium and restore its former occult splendor. Find and convert new followers, and let the chants echo through your halls once again. - Dense Open World - Content over size.
