Terms of Service

Last updated: November 9, 2026

1. Who we are

Dao Forge ("we", "us") makes tabletop roleplaying games. They come as paperbacks on Amazon and as PDF editions sold on this website. By buying or downloading a Dao Forge product you agree to these Terms.

2. Where you buy

PDF editions bought on this website are processed by Whop. The "Buy the PDF" button opens a Whop checkout, where Whop takes your payment, issues your receipt and keeps your files in your Whop library. Whop's own terms apply to the payment.

Paperbacks are sold and shipped by Amazon. Amazon's terms of sale, shipping and returns apply to those orders, not these Terms. We do not see your Amazon order.

3. What you buy

A PDF edition is a set of digital files: PDFs and images, as listed on its page. Nothing physical is shipped. It is a one-time purchase: there is no subscription and no recurring charge.

4. Delivery

After payment, Whop gives you the files in your Whop library and sends the receipt to the email you bought with. Download the PDFs; they are yours to keep. We keep the files available in your library for as long as the product is offered on Whop, and will give at least 30 days' notice here before removing them. If a file will not open, write to us and we will help.

5. License

You receive a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the product for your own games and your own table. You may print the files for that use. The character sheets, reference cards, Journal and Scene Maps may be copied freely for the people you play with. You may not resell, share, sublicense or redistribute the product or its files, in whole or in part, or present them as your own product. One purchase covers one person.

The same license covers the bonus files that come with a paperback.

6. Your content

What you make in play (your characters, your campaign notes, your stories) belongs to you.

7. Refunds

For PDF editions bought through Whop, our Refund Policy applies and is part of these Terms: 14 days, no questions asked. For paperbacks, Amazon's return policy applies.

8. Limitation of liability

Products are provided "as is". To the extent the law allows, our total liability for any claim about a product is limited to the amount you paid for it. Nothing in these Terms limits rights you have under the consumer law of your country.

9. Changes

We may update these Terms. The version in effect when you bought a product applies to that purchase.

10. Contact

Questions about these Terms: contact the support chat on your Whop order page. For a paperback order, contact Amazon.
