Play Aquelarre online on Adarle 20

Aquelarre is the classic Spanish historical-occult horror RPG, set in the Iberian Peninsula during the late Middle Ages (the 14th–15th centuries, roughly 1350–1500). It's gritty low fantasy grounded in real history, folklore, witchcraft and demonology, charged with tension between Christian, Muslim and Jewish cultures and the looming Inquisition. It runs on a percentile (d100) system with 100 points split between Rationality and Irrationality. On Adarle 20 you play it online: book your table, join by video and virtual tabletop, and start playing with a verified Game Master.

What playing Aquelarre online is like

Aquelarre isn't about invincible heroes; it's ordinary people surviving a superstitious, dangerous world. You roll d100 against your skills, and every character divides 100 points between Rationality and Irrationality: the more you open yourself to the supernatural and magic, the more fragile your grip on the everyday world becomes. That balance shapes how you play.

The tone is mature, dark and atmospheric. There are witches, demons, forbidden rites and a recognizable Iberian history: markets, convents, Jewish quarters and trials. It works beautifully online: the GM runs the game over video and uses a virtual tabletop (Roll20, Foundry) for maps, rolls and mood, letting dread and intrigue carry the table more than combat.
