Arianrhod RPG is a Japanese fantasy role-playing game released in 2004. At present, Arianrhod RPG is one of the most popular traditional RPG in Japan along with Sword World 2.0, Alshard and Dungeons & Dragons. The related books including rulebooks, supplements, replays and novels were published 59 books until November 2010.[1]
The game's flavor is similar to that of MMORPGs. For example, guild skills shared by the party, skills similar to Final Fantasy XI's combos, and manga-like illustrations.
The basic setting's world, named Erindyll continent, is an orthodox fantasy world. In 2008, the new series Arianrhod Saga[2] began, and the new setting of another continent named Aldion was provided for a campaign setting suitable for war chronicle stories. Arianrhod Saga contains several series of side stories named Across, Break, Concerto (manga), Death March, Étude, Fanbook (a replay with a drama CD), and several novels.
Arianrhod RPG is known for several voice actors such as Noriko Rikimaru, Ema Kogure, Naoki Yanagi, Kanako Sakai, Megumi Kojima, and Miyu Ohtake playing in official game sessions. These session logs are commercially published as replays.
