In a special partnership with Japanime Games, we have statted out 20 larger-than-life personalities (and their items) for BESM Fourth Edition that are featured in the upcoming Tokyo Sidekick anime superhero board game. Combining anime and superheroes together in a full-colour, 24-page NPC expansion? Yes, please!

The four small Dramatis Personae PDF volumes of adventure NPCs have been a hit with BESM Fourth Edition fans, and so we are collecting them all into one printed printed volume. We are also adding a dozen never-seen-before new entries, plus a section on NPC organizations in the BESM Multiverse.

Like BESM Extras, BESM Dramatis Personae clocks in at 144 fullcolour pages with gorgeous illustrations. Hardcover, Smyth-sewn binding, spot UV lamination, bookmark ribbon – it's all here, too!

Welcome to Carousel Obscura – the first story module in the BESM Adventures line. When the characters are summoned across dimensions from their homeworld of Molybdos to the strange fantasy world, Magenta, they gain wondrous supernatural abilities. A 32-page introductory level adventure for 4-6 players with 90-Point characters.

BESM 2D-Animinis are individual miniature images that you can print and turn into standees to help bring dynamic characters and NPCs to life in your gaming adventures – adding over 100 monsters, characters, mecha, and animals to your anime tabletop RPG stories. These gorgeous illustrations are presented in a variety of sizes, and are ready for printing. It's an affordable and compact way to bring your adventures to the next level!

For layout, the 2D-Animinis are designed to be printed front-to-back rather than folded. Regular characters (medium-sized) are 40mm in height, smaller ones 30mm, and larger ones up to 100mm.

Some players desire more than a simple character sheet to present their creation. The BESM Character Folio is the ultimate journal for detailing characters from any style of game campaign. The folio includes: a deluxe character sheet with expanded areas for stats and descriptions; sections for detailing your character’s abilities, background, personality; and diary pages on which you can record your character’s inner thoughts, secrets learned during each session, and other important game notes.

BESM Naked is a “gateway product” of a sorts, targeted at anime and manga fans who may know something about role-playing but aren’t traditional gamers. It’s also for role-playing enthusiasts who enjoy indie-style RPGs with simple rules and more narrative game flow. With a structural simplicity closer to BESM First Edition from 1997 — yet presented with an eye on illustration and graphic design that lives up to the expectations of today’s gamers — BESM Naked contains everything you need to play, wrapped in one small volume at an attractive price.

This handy, 4-panel reference screen for game masters features a one-stop location for BESM tables, charts, and other resources, wrapped in a stunning full-color panoramic image on the front. As a bonus, inside you’ll find an engaging two-part, multi-genre adventure that can be dropped into nearly any campaign. With gorgeous art and an intriguing story, this BESM Game Screen and Adventure is a great addition to your anime RPG collection.

BESM Fourth Edition rules variations, extended game mechanics, expanded optional guidelines, creative adventuring elements, and plenty of ready-to-use examples of spells, powers, and items. Along with the BESM core book and BESM Naked, BESM Extras is a foundational pillar for the game line.

This gorgeous volume is 144 full-color pages with beautiful illustrations from talented artist across the world. BESM Extras features a sturdy hardcover with spot UV lamination, a convenient bookmark ribbon, and a durable Smyth-sewn binding.

BESM Fourth Edition core role-playing game book contains everything you need to create your anime and manga characters and start playing. No other books are required, though we have an entire expansion line in the works to support your gaming adventures!
