Medusalaire SRD is new SRD to help you create lite solo dungeon-defense and builder tabletop roleplaying games. SRDs are frameworks that provide mechanics and guidance so you can focus on what you love - making games! With Medusalaire, players must manage their domain with the help of allies. Think- the Dungeon Keeper games meets Jim Henson’s Labyrinth, but steeped in the lore of Medusa. 

Is the player David Bowie? Yeah, the player is David Bowie. 

No need from GM, lengthy documents, or complicated rulesets - just your ideas supported by elements for layered storytelling. 

This SRD is setting neutral so your game can draw inspiration from any genre or style.
