The Youxia's Handbook

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:

The Youxia’s Handbook is a collection of archetypes, Spheres of Might talents, and optional rules for any kind of game using Spheres of Power or Spheres of Might. The primary focus of the book is to introduce new options for martially-focused characters, to introduce (stance) talents to every single martial sphere, and bring more diverse options to the Athletics, Gladiator, and Open Hand spheres.


This book focuses on the wūxiá genre of Chinese fantasy and their characters, known as yóuxiá. Wuxia as a genre stretches back thousands of years through many different media, from epic novels like Romance of the Three Kingdoms to films like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon to even cartoons like Avatar: The Last Airbender. Wuxia stories often feature high-flying acrobatics, stunning displays of martial arts prowess, and dramatic heroes with intense personalities. The Youxia’s Handbook can help capture the feel of these stories with new rules and options while also presenting useful content for any style of game using spheres content. It is my hope that this handbook inspires players who aren’t familiar with wuxia to explore the genre, while providing fans of wuxia the tools to add wuxia influence to their games.


For use with the Spheres of Power and Spheres of Might systems.

One of the best comprehensive additions of content for Spheres of Might in a while. This book singlehandedly has added at least one new component to every character concept I've had in quite a while. The archetypes? Wonderful. The talents? WONDERF [...]

The Youxia's Handbook is one of the most interesting updates for the Spheres of Might system. With new high-wire kung-fu style options, this book is geared towards games with fantastic martial action, rather than just guys in armor hacking at each [...]

This book opens up a great amount of new options for the Spheres of Might system fitting wuxia-style play, as advertised. I don't think there's a single talent written in here that I don't love. I think all the new archetypes presented [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
