Explore the Tiny Yet Epic World of Mice of Legend

Ever wondered what it would be like to play D&D as brave, heroic mice? Mice of Legend transforms your party into mouse-sized adventurers, immersing you in a rich, miniature world full of peril and wonder. Combining familiar OSRIC rules with a brand-new setting, this campaign invites players to experience their favorite game in a whole new way.

At the heart of Mice of Legend is the Setting Guide, introducing a world steeped in deep lore, beautifully illustrated maps, and new mechanics that seamlessly integrate into your adventures. Players will find over 6 fully written modules, 100 NPCs, 60 side quests, 25 new magic items, and 12 original monsters, all designed to enrich gameplay. The guide even includes 6 pre-made Player Characters complete with OSRIC and 5e stat blocks, perfect for jumping straight into the action.

Each module in the campaign setting brings something fresh. New locations, creatures, and magic create a dynamic experience that rewards curiosity and creativity. With dozens of hand-drawn maps and over 50 illustrations, every moment feels alive, drawing players deeper into the mouse-sized world.

The Journey Begins: A Miraculous Mousey Metamorphosis!

The first module of the Mice of Legend series, A Miraculous Mousey Metamorphosis! kicks off the Perils of Portal Lake campaign. It begins in the human realm, where the party embarks on a quest to recover a stolen holy relic of immense power. Their journey takes an unexpected turn as they are transformed into their mouse-sized counterparts, stepping into a world of tiny villages, towering predators, and mysterious dangers.

As mice, the party must navigate their new environment, forge alliances with their fellow creatures, and uncover the mysteries of Portal Lake. This adventure blends classic fantasy heroics with unique challenges that only a mouse-sized party can face.

What Makes Mice of Legend Unique?

Unlike other mouse-themed TTRPGs, Mice of Legend isn’t a standalone system but a ruleset that allows you to transform your favorite D&D characters into mice while keeping familiar mechanics intact. Whether you’re an OSRIC purist or a 5e fan, Mice of Legend integrates seamlessly, offering a fresh perspective without requiring players to learn an entirely new system.

Why Kids and Teens Will Love Mice of Legend

Mice of Legend is designed to captivate the imaginations of younger players, offering a world that balances fun, challenge, and creativity. The setting’s whimsical concept—transforming into heroic, mouse-sized adventurers—sparks curiosity and allows kids and teens to explore a world of epic quests from a fresh perspective. The modules offer a variety of challenges that cater to different playstyles, from puzzles and role-playing to classic combat encounters, keeping every session engaging for diverse groups.

Character creation is simple and accessible, and the campaign includes pre-generated characters, allowing new players to jump straight into the action. The humor, charm, and relatability of the mouse-world setting make it especially appealing for family play, while older teens can appreciate the deeper lore, strategic gameplay, and narrative complexity. With plenty of guidance for Dungeon Masters and easy-to-understand materials, Mice of Legend empowers teens to take on leadership roles, running games for their peers or siblings.

Whether your players are tackling a mouse-sized dungeon or solving riddles in a library, Mice of Legend encourages teamwork, problem-solving, and creativity—all while offering a memorable tabletop experience that is easy to learn and endlessly fun to play.
