The Dresden Files Roleplaying Game is a licensed tabletop role-playing game based on Jim Butcher's Dresden Files novels and built on the Fate system, published by Evil Hat Productions. It was released in 2010 in two hardcover volumes, Your Story with the rules and Our World with setting material, and was later joined by a third volume, The Paranet Papers. The books are written as an in-universe draft by the werewolf Billy Borden, covered in annotations from Harry Dresden and Bob the skull. Its character creation has the players invent shared past stories, and its magic system separates quick evocation from planned thaumaturgy. A lighter standalone version, Dresden Files Accelerated, followed in 2017 using Fate Accelerated. The game won several Origins Awards, ENnies and Golden Geek Awards.
